reflections on life.

My "Little" for CSA (Catholic Student Association) is also one of my friends who lived on my floor last year. She was talking to me on Monday when I was at Primo about how one of her close friends committed suicide a few days before. I didn't know what to say, but I wrote down some stuff after we talked briefly and I showed it to her. She said this was exactly what she needed, so I thought I'd share it! Let me know what you think!


Life is a beautiful, beautiful gift. Sometimes people take full advantage of it, sometimes people throw it away. In my opinion, a lot of people who appear to throw away this precious gift were simply led astray and had blinders on that prevented them from seeing the wonderful blessings surrounding them. These people, no matter how far they have strayed, they are loved. Loved immensely. Love is stronger than anything. The phrase "omnia vincit amor" has been around for quite literally centuries and still stands true--love conquers all. Love conquers sadness. Love conquers weakness. Love conquers anger. Love conquers fear. Love conquers persecution. Love conquers loneliness. LOVE CONQUERS ALL.
