Our Lady of Guadalupe: Mother of the Civilization of Love by Carl Anderson

"Our Lady of Guadalupe’s only words of spiritual guidance are her gentle but persistent reminders to Juan Diego about love: a love that can be trusted, a love that gives dignity, a love that is personal. If we are to see in her words an answer to a spiritual problem, the spiritual problem it answers is a lack of love and a lack of understanding about love as relationship rather than as practice. The Guadalupan message is, in its originality, a spiritual education, an education in love."
I love Our Lady of Guadalupe, and I loved learning more about the history...the apparitions, the tilma... Just the analysis of the image and all the meanings. Literally just read any of the scientific and artistic studies of the tilma.
So many Ratzinger and Karol Józef Wojtyła quotes.
I'm fine... I love my Mom.
