I fioretti di san Francesco

I really hated this. It took tremendous will power just to finish it. The first Franciscans seemed more crazy than holy.

L'ideale francescano di semplicità, candore, purezza, fede e fiducia in Dio e amore per il prossimo, stupore, contemplazione e ringraziamento per la bellezza del creato: queste cose per me sono I Fioretti di S. Francesco, intramontabili, delicati. Sono sorgenti cristalline a cui abbeverare lo spirit Leggi tutto

It's good to remember that 7,000 miles and about 800 years separate me and this strange Italian man.

4,25 ⭐ Moja pierwsza mini recenzja. Pierwsze rozdziały czytalo mi sie z ciepłem na sercu przez dobroć jaką emanował św. Franciszek oraz przez jego równe i rozsądne traktowanie siebie i braci.
