I also finished reading
Rise, Let Us Be On Our Way, by Pope John Paul II. I've always thought that the former Pope was a great writer, and this little autobiographical summary of his priestly and episcopal call is fascinating. But it is
tough to relate, personally, to the call to celibacy, marriage to the church, and the vows of poverty assumed by many priests of the past generation. I liked Pope John Paul II and wish him well on his way to beatification. Hope he makes it. I'd love to see him in stained glass.
Of course, since his autobiography is entitled,
Rise, Let Us Be On Our Way, I couldn't help but consider my own autobiographical title. So far, I've come up with:
Rise, Let Us Go To Dunkin' DonutsRise, Logan, Get Your Sorry Butt Out of BedRise! (Hey, Why Aren't These Biscuits Rising?!)
Rise, It's Monday Morning AgainRise, Naw . . . I'll Hit the SnoozeRise, Rising, Risen (The Pastoral Guide to Latin Cognates)Rise, Let Us Be Off to Conference
