Catherine- I couldn’t agree more with this: “While it might be fun or thrilling to create a magnificent work of art that people admire long after my death, John Paul II reminds us that “all men and women are entrusted with the task of crafting their own life: in a certain sense, they are to make of it a work of art, a masterpiece.” John Paul had a point. And it’s a great one. I appreciate you sharing.
