The Kindness of the Rosary

"The greatest method of praying is to pray the Rosary."
Saint Francis de Sales

A very good friend of mine's mother died two months ago today.  It has been a huge loss for my friend and her family.  Last night, my friend went to the Chapel of the Blessed Sacrament and prayed the Rosary.  While there, she received a text from her husband asking her to come home.  She wondered if everything was alright.  When she arrived, her best friend from high school and her mother were there praying the Rosary, and they had brought a statue of the Virgin Mary for her.  My friend thought their kindness was incredibly special.  In the midst of loss, the heart can still be touched by kindness.  Perhaps that is when we need it most.
