The last couple days, where I live, it’s been absolutely wonderful weather outside.

I used to love to read Saint Francis biographies - outside - anywhere - against a tree - through out my 20’s.
Those library books - struck a chord with me - books from the 1960’s - 200 pages - etc
Fun reading - but when I read he had the stigmata - that changed things - considerably -
I know powerful things received should be considered a blessing - but that type of mark is dark - too.
I wonder how long Francis lived - after - he received the stigmata ?
One - two years ?
Wonderful reminder !
