Also a statue sitting on a bench she is rarely one of 'all the lonely people' any more but I've never seen such crowds with her as the saint's fans! I love your descriptions of the Carmelites - they were the first real nuns I 'encountered' on my way to school as a 5 year old (stopped with an older girl to light a candle) and the elusiveness of them frightened me - but not as much as the grumpy Notre Dame nun who was the head of that school where my stay was mercifully brief! I also share your fear at being locked in having nearly been left inside a closed church in Galicia last summer. A lovely 'pilgrimage' with you, thanks Katie x Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3036258045569952185.post-73056512902770424672016-08-26T05:58:30.404+01:002016-08-26T05:58:30.404+01:00Classy!

Believe in our Caudouins' with all out hearts. And one day when we look back and see they no longer exists. Then we can at least be sure we lived life to the fullest. Perhaps we will feel sentimental, nostalgic maybe even sad? but at least we will not have any regrets. Thank you for sharing these wonderful thoughts.
