After the World Youth Day celebrations, my brother, Evan, who went on a pilgrimage to this wonderful event came back with something wonderful for me. It's a cap inscribed with Benedetto XVI. Cool eh??? I'm still considering where to place it in my room, or to wear it all around, especially infront of people who frown on authority and the papacy. Those who know me well enough, knows who I'm talking about. *wink*
The cap might be nothing much, but it serves to express my loyalty and allegiance to the Holy Father, Pope Benedict XVI, who has been and continues to be a faithful servant of the Truth. Like his predecessor Pope John Paul II, he reaches out to the young, the future of the Church. In this World Youth Day, he has come to many young people, to show them the way to the Truth, to lead them, as shepherd of the flock to Jesus Christ. Instead of the youth coming to him, his holiness comes to us. I guess the term 'prisoner of the Vatican' very often used on previous popes is no longer in usable. It's obsolete!
With this cap, it got me all boosted to start saving some cash for Madrid, Spain, the next venue for the World Youth Day. I sure do hope that he would still be there in 3 years time. By the grace of God, I won't pass the age limit yet =), I pray that I would also be able to make a pilgrimage there as well. The Euro dollars are going strong, about 5 times the value of the Malaysian Ringgit. So do pray for me, that I may get a job soon. I'm going through a final bout of an interview to be a lecturer. So do pray for me. See ya! Hopefully in Madrid as well.
