A Virgin A Day: Traveling Icon

Prayer for Life
~Blessed Pope John Paul II~
Evangelium Vitae (105)
O Mary, bright dawn of the new world, 
Mother of the living, 
to you do we entrust the vast numbers of babies 
not allowed to be born, 
of the poor whose lives are made difficult, 
of men and women who are victims of brutal violence, 
of the elderly and the sick 
killed by indifference or out of misguided mercy.

Grant that all who believe in your Son 
may proclaim the Gosper of life 
with honesty and love to the people of our time.  
Obtain for them the grace 
to accept that Gospel as a gift ever new, 
the joy of celebrating it with gratitude 
throughout their lives, 
and the courage to bear witness to it resolutely, 
in order to build, 
together with all people of good will, 
a civilization of truth and love, to the praise 
and glory of God, the Creator and lover of life.

linking with the love 
of Our Lady
to Rebecca's

This particular black madonna is a favorite of mine and a former housemate of mine brought back a beautiful small replica of it for me when she visited Poland. Thank you for sharing her with us. I read briefly about her travels. Did you get to see her in person yourself?

Pondering about My Blog

I've been through quite a bit these past months that I haven't posted.  First, packing and moving and then unpacking . The first step of unpacking was my taking down boxes that were five and six boxes high.  About two weeks after I’d moved and was in the midst of unpacking, I developed horrendous pain in my ribs. I slathered on my gel I use to alleviate Fibromyalgia pain. Realizing that even that was not helping. Trying to make a long story short- Asked for pain pills No help; asked for another kind Doctor wanted to see me Went in- he didn’t understand why I was still in pain Sent me to get x-rays Diagnosis: compressed fracture in my 9th vertebra Cause: osteporosis Now on meds for that I’ve discovered that anytime I overdo, pain comes back, not quite full-blown, but enough that I must stop doing whatever I’m doing. 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
