In this vlog, Fr. MD shares an African fable about a duck and heron who lived on rotten fish.  The duck’s life changed for the better once it accepted the heron’s invitation to learn how to swim.  This fable applies to the blind man in today’s gospel as well as to our lives when we have the choice of following God’s call or listening to people who tell us not to be different.  Based on the readings of Jeremiah 31: 7-9; Hebrews 5: 1-6; Mark 10: 46-52
