FROM JULIE YAP DAZA I just want to share that two years ago, I went to see St. Therese's remains when it was put on display in the Carmelite Church . I went there because I was curious what was this euphoria about the world's youngest saint whose job is to grant people's wishes? So I went with friend Lyn and I must admit the life of the little child, Therese, intrigued me. It turned out she was a child who wanted to serve her God more than anything else in the world. Thus, in every chore that she did: even watering the plants, she performed it like it was for her master. Since all her siblings were Carmelite nuns, she became a nun herself, the youngest (12?) to be allowed inside the convent. So we're talking of a pure 'uncorrupted soul'. And then she died. But she left a journal (suggested reading!) which contained all her thoughts about God, love and life.. Since then she became the saint who grants all wishes.. Believe it or not, my wish was granted...
