 Don't be puzzled by today. National Puzzle Day honors puzzles of all size, shape and form. Crossword puzzles are by far the most common. Sudoku, a number puzzle, is the most recent puzzle rage. There's easy puzzles, and there's puzzles for experts. They fit the needs of every person, and every skill level.

Puzzles are a favorite pastime of millions of people, young and old. So, what's with this fascination over puzzles? There's numerous reasons for it's popularity. For many, doing puzzles is fun. Some people just like the challenge of completing them, and graduating to evermore complex and difficult puzzle solving levels. For others, it is a way to kill time, and to eliminate boredom. Others still, do puzzles to keep their mind sharp, or to learn new words.

Reflection
In the Gospels we are told of how the Apostles puzzled over
who Jesus was.
We each have been called to puzzle over this in our own lives
those who have solved this puzzle,
continue to engage in discovering how the pieces of our lives fit together
to form us ever more closer to the master image of our model,
the Risen Jesus. crsr
