Even after I've come to accept the events of the Holy Father's passing, and having seen almost all the news has revealed about his life and his work, I'm still deeply moved by the lesser known stories that are surfacing only now as a remembrance. His humanness has been so striking in its sincerity and enthusisam, I can't help but feel things will not be the same. Yet now I think about it and I am sure things will never be the same; it is only the nature of this life.

For those who have gone before us... thank you.
