We all experience the effects of modern city living. With the traffic mess and jams compounding the problems, stress and anxieties from the work place, one can easily feel being overburdened. The dire effects of fears of what the future would offer, a weight no one would like to carry. We arrive home with still more issues to face. Add to this mix the hurried nature of living. Wow! We can easily break! The message of Jesus in today's Gospel may truly give us some light and consolation.
