Pope John Paul II:
‘Animals Possess A Soul’
Pope John Paul II declared in a public audience
in 1990 that “also the animals possess a soul and
men must love and feel solidarity with our smaller brethren”.
He said, too, that they are the “fruit of the creative
action of the Holy Spirit and merit respect,” and are
as near to God as men are.”
The Pope went on to say that, “animals have the breath
of life and were given it by God. In this respect, man
created by the hand of God is identical with all living
creatures. … The existence therefore of all living creatures
depends on the living spirit/breath of God that not only
creates but also sustains and renews the face of the earth.”
“Heaven goes by favour. If it went by merit,
you would stay out and your dog would go in.”
Mark Twain
If I have any beliefs about immortality,
it is that certain dogs I have known will go to heaven,
and very, very few persons.
James Thurber
“If there are no dogs in Heaven,
then when I die I want to go
where they went.”
Will Rogers, 1897-1935
“You think dogs will not be in heaven?
I tell you, they will be there long before any of us.”
Robert Louis Stevenson
Once a dog has entwined himself round your heart
he is not only yours for life, but you are his.
When he is gone, his place is forever sacred.
Other dogs are just as precious
but they all have their allotted spot in your
affections kept for them or their memory.
A heaven without one’s dogs
would not be the heaven we hoped for.
A dog is always man’s best friend.

Hello from the New York Gift Show !

It’s HOT in New York !
Impressions now that I had two days at the show and having just been at the Philadelphia Rosen show is that the show exhibitors and their wares are becoming more and more contemporary in style. The tradition decor in crystal and silver is still there but diminished greatly. As I looked deeper into the show booths, more and more modern pieces from tableware to home decor to accessories. Sunday was a real hassle getting to the show, first there was construction on the Lincoln tunnel approach and the tunnel into the city was only two lanes. There was a race that had traffic tied up out of the tunnel, it took us an hour from the approach until we finally found a open parking garage.
Fewer exhibitors by far, many of our pottery people were not at the show. It’s been a very tough year for small producers of unique hand crafted goods. Many have had to close up. We’re losing a vendor per week. Let’s remember that if these craft people are not supported the choices we’ll have is shopping at Wal-mart or Target for cheap junk.
