My first love

Today is Don Bosco's feast day. I have a confession to make. Don Bosco is my first love. I can still remember when I was a child, I loved reading a short book about his life. I would read the last part over and over again where his last words are "Tell my boys that I will see them in paradise". Funny how when one grows older, things done in childhood just come back. Never did it even enter my mind when I was younger that I would one day be a member of a religious congregation founded by Don Bosco.
