Verso l’Alto

Verso l’Alto

         This phrase means “To the heights”, and it is attributed to a man that died in 1924.  Pier Giorgio Frassati was canonized a saint with Carlo Acutis on September 7^th, by Pope Leo XIV at the Vatican,

         Carlo Acutis has said, “We are all born as originals.  But some die as photocopies.”  Stay unique, don’t try to be someone else.  I’ve heard, “Be yourself, everyone else is taken.”

         If only we pay attention to the words of others, we can gain so much richness added to our own journey.  Picking up gems may reflect brighter things as they shine joy into us and give us more to share with others.

         As we attempt to climb higher the world could witness the gleaming that exudes from us as it propels into our surroundings.  Being aloft and to look down we get a newer perspective at which to smile.

         When we absorb the gifts offered to us, there is such richness added to our coffers and we can bless all brought to our path.  Grabbing life with gusto is a challenge we all face.  Reach for the heights, but be unique too!
