It was amazing and after reading your post, going to marriage class, and listening to his (West's) CD. I can say that I "get it". <br /> <br /> Obviously in reference to marriage, but thank you for your beautiful post and faith in me to listen to His words in my life and upcoming life. tag:beyellow.org,2010-07-27:3365898 S Castro http://starlinforpresident.org 2010-07-27T20:34:53Z 2010-07-27T20:34:53Z ROC, Pope John XXIII was one of the most popular Papa's (as we say in my native tongue down in the DR) in the history of the church. His reign from 58 to 63 were great years...<br /> <br /> But I digress, although he is wonderful let me give you some other papal quotes that have helped me along the way...<br /> .<br /> “Somebody should tell us, right at the start of our lives, that we are dying. Then we might live life to the limit, every minute of every day. Do it! I say. Whatever you want to do, do it now! There are only so many tomorrows.”<br /> Pope Paul VI <br /> <br /> “If someone had told me I would be Pope one day, I would have studied harder”<br /> Pope John Paul I <br /> <br /> Are you going to be able to break away next week and give a tour of your school, town and introduce my buddy, Minnesota Fats, to JP? <br /> <br /> BTW, D Lee did not appreciate your lack of love. tag:beyellow.org,2010-07-27:3365775 Ryan 2010-07-27T19:31:21Z 2010-07-27T19:31:21Z Thanks Starlin.  You can blame my wife for not using your name.  If Derek Lee wasn't hitting .250, I might give him some credit on the name... but with this season forget it! <div><br /> </div> <div>Keep up the good work.  I'm glad to see a young player who knows his Church and baseball history.  Blessed John XXIII was a great Pope, and I'm glad you're familiar with whose profile you wear on that MLB logo.</div> <div><br /> </div> <div>And I agree.  Raising a smooth lawn makes it hard to practice those funny hops.  Apparently JP is afraid to get in front of the ball so far, but hopefully that will change soon.  I made sure he watched the replay of your textbook execution on that rundown the other night against the Cardinals.  Thanks for your good example.</div> tag:beyellow.org,2010-07-27:3364739 Starlin Castro http://starlinforpresident.org 2010-07-27T12:35:48Z 2010-07-27T12:35:48Z Your words should echo in the ears of all pops. Thanks for your blog ROC. Keep the faith and keep us all posted as time allows. <br /><br />I like the name and respect it's significance in your family...but... i was hopeful that you would have stuck with your original idea...(selfish athlete that I am...) I gotta tell you that zzzambrano was not pleased with the "lee" part of the name...but...he needs to develop as a man... and disappointment helps us all grow...<br /><br /><br />It is easy for a father to have children than for children to have a real father. ~Pope John XXIII<br /><br />My father used to play with my brother and me in the yard. Mother would come out and say, "You're tearing up the grass." "We're not raising grass," Dad would reply. "We're raising boys." ~Harmon Killebrew tag:beyellow.org,2010-07-24:3354593 Kristen 2010-07-25T01:04:40Z 2010-07-25T01:04:40Z Congrats!! I'm so happy for you guys!
