A WELCOME GUEST

This is a picture of my cousin, Jane, and me on a rainy, cloudy, miserably un-spring-like day. See that light shining through the window? That's our friend, Mary. Yea, that Mary. That's our story, anyway, and we're sticking to it. And BTW, we have no idea who that other person is in the background there. We'll just call her Carol.



We had lunch with Deb, and I'm sorry she wasn't sitting on the Mary side of the room, because there's no question she's got ol' Mary active in her life, too!

It hasn't been all that long since Jane and I realized we'd both stumbled into Mary on our various spiritual paths. We are grandchildren of the same fire and brimstone Baptist minister, where Mary was considered to be a false god.

Call her what you want, but there she is.

Always.

I'd love to hear more about your study of Mary and her influence. Have you written anything else? I have more to tell you about feng shui, too.

Not only is she shining behind you and Jane, I can actually see her shining from our faces as well. I'm so blessed to be in this sisterhood. Love.

You all are radiant!

And no one found it unusual that you and your cousin were dressed like identical twins? Mary probably had something to do with that, too!

Always...she is there. I have photo evidence also! And I'm happy that you named the 'stranger' Carol as that was my mother's name and I just know that she hangs with Mary.

Carrie if you haven't yet discovered her - you must go out right now and read everything by Immaculee Ilibagiza. Start with Left to Tell, then Led By Faith, but don't miss - Our Lady of Kibeho. And then tell me what you think.
