Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

My favorite quote from the article!

This is funny. The article was just sent through one of my e--lists. I am dealing with a 3-day migraine today plus a few self--doubts, when I first read this aricle, it brought tears to my eyes. What a well-written piece!

Well Cay, I read it and said "This is supposed to be me?!"
But it is certainly who I want to be!

It brought tears to my eyes and inspired me to keep going even when things seem less than great here.
