Farewell dear Pope...

I woke up this morning remembering that the Pope's funeral will be held today. And I knew this day couldn't pass without me saying my final farewells to my beloved Pope...Not that I'll be able to catch a last minute plane to Rome, but I guess the least I could do, and wanted to do, was to watch his funeral. Well, only one thing stood in my way - WORK. The good thing is that I've had an accumulation of time-offs...so using this opportunity, I went to my boss and requested to take the afternoon off. And of course, she gladly obliged. Thank God for a great boss like her!

So anyway, I'll be out of the office in a couple of minutes, making my way home to watch the Pope's funeral. I guess it's a form of closure for me...Not to say that I'm going to forget about this man....but rather, this is a time for me to get over his death and look forward to greater things to come.
