St. Pope John Paul the Great 😇

Karol Józef Wojtyla (1920 – 2005) was a fearless man of God, globetrotter, and avid outdoorsman.  His feast day is Oct. 22, as he was inaugurated the 264ᵗʰ Roman Pontiff on that day in 1978.

I plead with you.  Never ever give up on hope.  Never doubt, never tire, and never be discouraged.  Be not afraid!

Love explained everything to me.  Love solved everything for me.  That is why I admire love wherever it is found.  If love is as great as it is simple, if the simplest longing can be found in nostalgia, then I can understand why God wants to be greeted by simple people; by those whose hearts are pure and find no words to express their love.  God came this far and He stopped a short step away from nothingness, very close to our eyes.  Perhaps life is a wave of astonishment, a wave of height and depth:  Don’t ever be afraid.  — poem Song of the Hidden God
