Gorman - Celebrating 50 Years: 1958-2008

Good Morning
Feast of St. Jerome
"St Thomas Aquinas, for example, puts among the virtues jucunditas or the capacity of changing things heard and seen into a cheerful smile-to the extent and in the way appropriate (cf. 2.2ae, q. 168, a.2). This kind of cheerfulness, I explained to my pupils, was shown by that Irish mason who fell from the scaffolding and broke his legs. He was taken to hospital and the doctor and Sister nurse rushed to him. 'Poor thing', the latter said, 'you hurt yourself falling.' But I the patient said: 'Mother, not exactly falling, but reaching the ground I hurt myself.'"
--Pope John Paul I, General Audience, Sept. 27, 1978
