Babes in the Woods

These three children were murdered by their father and left in woods near Carlisle, Pa in 1934.

Jpr: upon a vacation in the area I would jog in this large cemetery. Seeing the scrine for the children left a greater more terrible sense of loss and trajedy than any other in a place dedicated to grief.

When you are old. ...W B Yeats

When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;

How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;

And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.

Mom and some of her 38 children.

Mariam Nabatanzi gave birth to twins a year after she was married off at the age of 12. Five more sets of twins followed, along with four sets of triplets and five sets of quadruplets. Three years ago, however, the 39-year-old Ugandan was abandoned by her husband, leaving her to support their surviving 38 children alone.  Not sure I believe this. 

Fr Fournier performs Benediction in Norte Dame

The chaplain of the Paris Fire Brigade went completely alone into Notre Dame as it burned and debris fell. He saved the Blessed Sacrament and the Crown of Thorns. “The time when the fire attacked the northern bell tower and we started to fear losing it, was exactly the time when I rescued the Blessed Sacrament and performed a Benediction there to save the church."
