A Reply to Love

from the foot of the cross

 

As life goes on, I see more and more how much I resemble my Dad.

When you're sleeping out in a dusty field, exposed to the heavens and surrounded by a million strangers, it's very important to have good neighbors. 

One of the great things about traveling is how dependent you are on the people you come across.

My time traveling before and during World Youth Day coincided with a number of important dates in my life. 

I know World Youth Day is technically over, but I'm back in the States and just starting to sort out my life, so blog posts will continue! 

Perhaps you are wondering what we’ve been doing during these weeks of pilgrimage, weeks “wasted for God” as our fearless leader Fr. Anthony has stressed. 

It is just astounding to me sometimes how much time is spent going from one place to another.
