You can Make a Difference

As I watch UFC tonight (Ultimate Fighting Championship at Studio 23), I remember the gladiators in the old days. There were bloody fights, and every event costs lives. But it was an entertainment to the erring audience. Thank God, it's not happening nowadays. Because of one man, his name is Saint Telemachus. Sounds unfamiliar? Not anymore.
"Telemachus was a monk that lived in Asia in the fourth century. He felt an inner voice from the Lord to go to Rome, but didn't know why. He went anyway. He saw crowds going into the Coliseum, so he followed. He saw two gladiators fighting to the death, so he jumped down and tried to stop them but he kept getting knocked down by the gladiators. On the third time one of the gladiators ran his sword thru Telemachus and for the third time said "In the name of Christ, forbear", then he died. As the crowd saw Telemachus lying there in a pool of blood, there was silence and one by one the Coliseum emptied. Never again was there another gladiator fight." From the author of St.Telemachus Infoweb
See? One man can change the world. We often hear this phrase, "Change must begin within us". You too can make a difference.
