Wanted to write about this.

 As compared with many other saints, and many other philosophers, he was avid in his acceptance of Things; in his hunger and thirst for Things. It was his special spiritual thesis that there really are things; and not only the Thing; that the Many existed as well as the One. I do not mean things to eat or drink or wear, though he never denied to these their place in the noble hierarchy of Being; but rather things to think about, and especially things to prove, to experience and to know. Nobody supposes that Thomas Aquinas, when offered by God his choice among all the gifts of God, would ask for a thousand pounds, or the Crown of Sicily, or a present of rare Greek wine. But he might have asked for things that he really wanted: and he was a man who could want things; as he wanted the lost manuscript of St. Chrysostom. He might have asked for the solution of an old difficulty; or the secret of a new science; or a flash of the inconceivable intuitive mind of the angels, or any one of a thousand things that would really have satisfied his broad and virile appetite for the very vastness and variety of the universe.

Hi, yeah. This is me.

I wanted to share this specific passage because I have been dwelling on the idea of people and their wisdom. 

I saw that there were several, not withstanding Saint Kateri, people who were Christ's bride by the name of Catherine. 

This was so interesting to me and it made me look at the first one with a bit of awe.

I wondered why so many!? There's no article or site which shows all the brides of Christ. Just saying.

Chesterton writes, "what would you ask for?" Is our answer faithful to God or to what's common?

We should pray for Mary to save America.
