Passage

They say there are 3 types of Catholics: Cradle, Fallen and Convert. I am the third type and proud of it . It took me a long, long time to get home. The road that brought me here is open to all travelers; it's well trodden from those before me and accessible to emigrants that will follow. Enlightenment is a wonderful thing.
