Totus Tuus

Learned this Latin phrase on TV (from where all my knowledge stems). Simply, it means, "totally yours".

It's what Pope John Paul II prayed as he was being rushed to hospital, after he had been shot by a would-be assassin. He prayed, Lord, if it is Your will that I should live, then from this day forth, I will be totally Yours. It's also worth noting that after he had recovered, he went to the jail cell where his assailant was being detained, and forgave and prayed for him.

Anyway, it's a restless, boring Sunday, and I am stuck at work. I'm cold, hungry, tired and XIAN. And the biggest news story is about some Indonesian maid in Malaysia who tried to escape from her(abusive)employer by climbing down an improvised rope from the 15th floor. Who then got cold feet at the 12th floor and had to be rescued by firemen.

Probably going to have to put in OT this week. Features galore to finish. And I still need to find another interviewee!!!
