Wednesday, May 31, 2017 –Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary

The meeting between two women: Mary, who carries God in her womb, and Saint Elisabeth, expecting the one who will announce him, the last prophet of the old testament announcing the Messiah for ages awaited.

Anyone seeking to glorify himself through scientific progress, certain that one day it will solve all of our problems, he will have empty hands and will be more in need than before as he is bent by an impossible utopia.

When I love good feelings that a person produces in me and this person is passing away, I forget also the feelings and emotions I felt.
