Laughs and Lobotomies

I prayed the full rosary the other day.

I never had the patience to learn it and say the whole thing.

I don’t know if it brought me closer to God.

But it brought me to the moment in my room, all those years before, when my grandmother tried to teach it to me.

So maybe it did, in its own way.

Her name was Mary.

Peace and solace are their own mercies.
