A HERO AND A SAINT

In His name, I bear witness and acknowledge my faith!

True heroes are indeed rare, and such was the uniqueness of Edith Stein, who went to her death in Auschwitz wearing the Star of David on her nun's habit, after offering herself as a sacrifice in an effort to save others. She was born into a German Jewish family; became assistant to the philosopher Edmund Husserl, converted to Catholicism and took her vows as a Carmelite nun 12 years later. When the Nazis rounded up Jews for extermination, Edith Stein proudly identified herself as Christian and Jewish, and in 1942, was gassed. Twenty years after her death, the Vatican began the formal canonization procedure the St. Teresia Benedicta a Cruce, the name she took--which make her the first Jewish Catholic saint of our time.

TOUCHING MOMENTS!!

Many thanks to my friend,
Adele Hernandez Tirona,
for sharing this very unique "love story"!

Who can withstand the power of love!

How I wish all couples are like this....
Not leaving someone behind....

Hey, wake up! wake up!

A dog was knocked down by
a car and died on the middle of the road.

Later, this dog is seen beside the corpse
of the dog, he tried to wake his wife up using his leg.

Let's move to the safer side of the road...
I will move you to the safer side!

When his attempts to wake his wife failed,
he tried to push his wife to the side of the road.
But the weight of his wife was proven too heavy for him.

Anyone help, tell me what to do.

Though the traffic is busy and dangerous,
he just will not go away from his wife.
Just stand beside his wife howling and crying.

A lot of people saw this incident and feel very touched.
How even a dog can show his loyalty and love to his wife.

"Sometimes someone says something really small,
and it just fits right into this empty place in your heart."
