I haven't said the rosary in a very long time probably since grammar school. I've made up my own way to use the beads which puts me into a meditative state which is pretty thrilling actually. I've been curious about Lourdes and how Mary appeared to the young girl. Mary had the rosary with her and this is what confuses me. Is it a tool from God or is it a tool from man and if it's from man why does Mary have it?

I really enjoy going to the Lourdes grotto just down the road from my father's house. It's completely ignored and is more or less falling apart. But to me that makes it more beautiful than sitting in a church adorned with gold and jewels and pageantry. Anyway if anyone has any thoughts or directions or things they want to share about this I'm all eyes.

I reckon you're right everything is covered. Sometimes I enjoy thanking God verbally even though I know God is omnipotent. Maybe I don't understand that power because I'm just a man.

I also enjoy going to shrines. I feel there's an energy there, maybe Godly, definitely human intentions. Prayers and thoughts of people asking for help for others and themselves. That energy is there, you can feel it.
