Agreed.
We all die.
Nobody escapes death or dealing with it in a family.
JP2 was a great person. The next Pope has big shoes to fill.
What a time to reflect on the "Greats" of the world. How is it that as time goes on, it is the people of the past that bring us such solace in life. I do believe that as the world supposedly progresess, it is the people of the past that bring us such meaningfull memories. I live but a mere 1/4 mile from two great presidents of this country's resting place and I am in awe as to their committment and devotion to our country goes unseen to those so close. I probably am rambling but I feel more than patriotic, I feel inspired by such an awsome symbol of our devotion and love of God this vigil lends to. We love you John Paul II. We love you and we just simply find it so hard to see you go. We know that you will be with the Lord soon and we hope we will be with him one day too BUT it hurts so much. A flood of our own departed loved ones memories is so part of what we feel today. Bless you beloved Pope John Paul II. No one can silence our love and devotion to you today.
