• Part 4 Day 24

    August 21, 2024 in Vatican City ⋅ ☀️ 34 °C

    We saw the POPE! Twice... How blessed and lucky are we. It's rare to see the Pope. It's more rare to be 5 feet away from him. He passed by me in his wheelchair and then he passed in front of William. As I mentioned earlier, my heart was not in it to go see the Vatican. I would never have foreseen how special the day turned out to be. When you are challenged mentally, physically, or emotionally but still open to being present and finding gratitude, life happens for you, not at you.🙏💗
    William and I, we were very emotional after the mass. For many different reasons. But we both agree that this trip and all we have done and encountered has been life changing, and we are better people because of it.🥰
    We were exhausted. The Vatican Museums, The Basilica, seeing the Pope, and going to 5 o'clock mass was a lot for one day, but I wouldn't change a thing.
