Rest you must...

Its almost six years ago when I posted a blog about us. I was extremely busy at work and my volunteer activities with the Knights of Columbus of the Massachusetts Jurisdiction. 

Since then a lot of articles were written against Christopher Columbus, the name of the catholic, fraternal and family organization founded by Father Michael McGivney in 1882.   

History has been written by others to share and inform us of events and people that impacts us today. 

I am not an apologist for the shortcomings and mistakes of Christopher Columbus in North America, and other places Christopher Columbus explored. I only knew Christopher Columbus through the books I read. I will never pass judgment on his deeds. 

There is always three sides in a story. My version, your version, and the truth.  

Our century is a century of technological wonders, and space exploration. We are now sending "robots" to explore other planets like Mars. Many years ago we sent "people" to check one of the biggest "star" of our universe - the moon. 

The man in the moon. You probably read the book. Read it again. Did you see the meaning of the book to us ? 

Hope for the Flowers is another interesting "children book" that is applicable to us. A classic book that teaches the search and exploration of others from the ivory tower.
