#83: A Poetry Pep Talk from the "Coach"...that could change your life!

Then it hit me! The night before I had read John Paul ll's Poem "Man of Will" and it changed my outlook on everything!

Man of the Will; "The Place Within" the poetry of Pope John Paul ll

Colorless moment of will yet heavy as piston's drive.
or sharp as a whip,
a moment that, on the whole,
encroaches on nobody--
or only on me.
It doesn't ripen like fruit, out of feeling,
or emerge from thought,
it just shortens the road.
When it comes I must lift it up
and this I do, on the whole.

No place for heart and thought,
only the moment exploding
in me, the cross.

Also: Saint Catherine of Siena, Mystic of fire, Preacher of Freedom, by Paul Murray, OP
