(Jn 21:25b) This sentence from this morning Mass touched me powerfully. The books that would be written. Unwritten books...

These unwritten books, or - if you will - books being written or about to be written, or books being edited, what are these???

As I asked myself celebrating the morning Mass in the shrine, I looked at the congregation and thought - we are those books that are being written by us with our own thoughts, words and deeds.
