The shrine of the Blessed Virgin in Talpa represents a sign of hope. People pray to the Virgin with hope that she will heal physical and spiritual wounds. Miracles, such as the blind being made to see and the lame to walk, are said to occur at these sites
'The blessed Virgin will give the cure. Once he was there before Her, his troubles would be over; nothing would hu rt him then or hurt him ever again"
From our hearts an equal supplication, wrapped in pain, comes to Her. Their tenderness is not deafened before the laments or tears, because She suffers with us.
She knows how to erase that pain and let the heart be soft and pure to receive her mercy and her charity.
Our Lady, our mother, who does not want to know anything about our sins; where the guilt of our sins is laid; who would like to take us in her arms so that does not hurt our lives, is here with us, relieving us of tiredness and Diseases of the soul and of our body that is bruised, wounded and supplicating
She knows that every day our faith is better because it is made of sacrifices
The older I get and the more I see of human behaviour the less impressed I am by the tendency of the hopeful to attribute terrible events to their Gods’ will and to call on a higher being to resolve things. It is so much the cause of grief between people and cultures rather than the solution to it. Ironic given the founding and apparently unifying principles of these so called ‘religions of peace’.
I’ve lost what faith I had. I like the tradition and custom of some aspects of church / synagogue / mosque / temple life - art, music and literature - and I like the philosophical challenge of theology, but it is complete nonsense as some sort of salvation strategy.

I think I need to track this Josiane down
Sounds like my sort of woman
Pious. Catholic
So unlike the angry femenazis we are saddled with here
