We don't have to speak or have an answer for everything. We have had the opportunity to stop everything recently. We may have not noticed in a few days or weeks. But eventually after your longest vacation period, the stillness of peace was there.
Did we feel or see it, or did we miss it altogether?
These are my parents, Nicholas and Angela. Using my dad's words, he would say, 'I am just a simple guy doing the best I can'. He came over from Sicily as a soldier to fight in WWII. My mom's parents came from Italy owned a butcher shop, that mom worked at. They believed in God, church and a good Sunday dinner with family.
I had the privilege and honor of being by their sides upon their passing. With that experience I grew to understand the simplicity my dad spoke about. I believe they watch over me and my siblings. I share this personal story of my parents, because the Rosary was expressed to me from my dad's mom, my grandma in a dream. The message was real to me and changed my life.
I spent many hours praying the Joyful Mysteries and Sorrowful Mysteries of the Rosary. I believe I am still learning from these mysteries today. I don't think it ever comes to an end, it's a slow peeling away of an onion affect.
