Holy Week: Good Friday


Prayer to Mary of the Pieta
Dearest Mother Mary, 
who received into 
your arms the lifeless body of 
Jesus, 
embrace your other children 
who will die this day.
Obtain for them 
true repentance and pardon 
for all their sins, 
that not a drop 
of your Son’s Precious 
Blood
will have been shed 
in vain.

In case you have wondered 
why this Friday is called Good Friday
and never dared to ask that question,
this site gives an excellent
and nonjudgmental explanation.

That includes sitting at my computer writing. I wanted to bring my friends up-to-date; I’m pondering whether I should stop blogging altogether o

Have humans sat here? Not recently, I think. Perhaps a snow couple rested for a while, and the shadowy remnants of them remain. more Cool Clicks
