Has not everyone, at one time in life, climbed a hill and g azed at the sky above and the fields below - and asked, "Whence all of this? Who put it here?" Why the newborn calf staggering alongside its mother grazing in the meadow? Why the thousands of daisies dancin g daintly along the fence row? Why the summer sun ripening these grov es of fruit trees? Why these acres clothed in beauty? Why this world of birth, growing, and dying? Does it speak to the secret of my own graced existence? ~ Mark Link, S.J.

The Washington Post carried a six-pane l cartoon strip. Panel one shows the head of a sleeping unborn infant, his head on his arms. The words were: "It was a big day for the little one! He was just minutes away from being America's newest citizen!" In Panel two, the baby's eyes are open: "The time had come!" The baby's head and shoulde rs have moved toward the bottom of Panel three: "He was being pushed throug h a small place!" Only the head remains in Panel four: "He felt air touch h is body for the first time! His hands were free!". In Panel five: "Then he felt a sharp pain at the base of his skull! He jerked violently! And then.. ..it was over...." The sixth Panel shows the facade of the Supreme Court: " And the Supreme Court, in its wisdom, asks, "So, what's the problem!?"

The following are the musings of a strong ly devout man and his efforts to find a shortcut to the Indies:
At a very early age I began to sail upon the ocean. I prayed to the most mercif ul LORD about my heart's great desire, and He gave me the spirit and the i ntelligence for the task. It was the LORD who put into my mind th e fact that it would be possible to sail from here to the Indies. all who h eard of my project rejected it with laughter, ridiculing me. But no one should fear to undertake any task in the name of our Savior, if it is jus t and if the intention is purely for His holy service.... Oh what a graciou s LORD.... Day and night, moment by moment, everyone should express to Hi m their devoted gratitude. ~ Christopher Columbus, Book of Prophecies i>
