He died today at 9:37 pm, Italian time, which makes it late enough to be considered Divine Mercy Sunday, the feat that he initiated. Karol Wojtyla, John Paul II, will be greatly missed by those of us left behind but we should remember that he has been greeted by our Father and Lord in Heaven. He died in peace and left behind such wisdom and knowledge. I don't even have the words to say all I wish to. I watch the news and have heard some of his quotes and he was a great man. God bless him, and may the Lord watch over His Holy Church on Earth, that we may continue in light and knowledge, learning from John Paul's life. They say he may be remembered as John Paul the Great and that he may be canonized. Wow... the president speaks well for our Holy Father- it is good to hear. May we learn from John Paul's ideas of human dignity, life, and Jesus Christ. Later...
