Are you Depressed?

June 16, 2009

I was reading a book by Fr. Jerry M. Orbos, SVD entitled MOMENTS… (Reflections, Experiences, Stories, Thoughts). This is just one of the short stories he shared in his book and I just wanted to share this to all…

I was hurrying up for an early morning Mass at Christ the King Seminary Chapel when, from out of nowhere, a man suddenly approach me and asked; “Excuse me, Sir, are you depressed?” I looked at him with a smile and answered “No.”

The man insisted, “But you looked depressed.” “Well,” I said, I may have my share of problems but I am certainly not depressed!”

Then, I finally got it! The man was the driver sent by the Sisters to fetch the priest who would say Mass in their convent. And what he was asking all along was, “Are you t-h-e p-r-i-e-s-t?”
