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.

Did anyone know John McCain had written this book(co-written with Mark Salter)?

I didn't even know he had authored any books (he has I think 3) but a friend told me about this one. I was astonished to find it on the shelf at both libraries I checked.

There are sections for Honor, Purpose, Strength, Understanding, Judgment, Creativity, and under Love, only one story: Selflessness and Contentment, Mother Teresa (his adopted child is from one of Mother Teresa's orphanages).

These look like inspiring stories no matter what your political leanings!!
