I must read this when I get a chance. Such a lovely gentle woman. I can see by her eyes that she experienced very great suffering. These saints remind me that carrying the Cross and being a Christian go together like ham and eggs. I think I have a tendency to think that everything is fine spiritually when there is no Cross. But it is the other way around. I love reading about these mystics anyway. I love spiritual fireworks. I suppose it is the child in me.
