candles in the wind

Franciscanska / Krakow, Poland
It was a year ago today that I was in Krakow on the 3rd anniversary of the death of Pope John Paul II. I am not a particularly religious person - I was there on business. Upon my realization of what was going - the outdoor concerts in the Old Town squares, the seas of lit candles everywhere you went, the clear adoration these people had for this man - I was really quite moved.
