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.

Thanks, everyone who wrote, for your support and encouragement.

The funny thing is that when I was on the fast track and accomplishing career goals, living in a upscale neighborhood, living a life that WAS similar to so many others I knew, it really bothered me to be lumped in with others. I felt I was different. I was unique.

Careful what you wish for I guess. Now that I am living a life that really IS different, it turns out I would like to be a little less different sometimes.

Maybe feeling different is another thing that leads us to God- who accepts and loves us.

Blessings,
Tracey
