Excerpt from 1934 Footprints The last kiss of the child who leaves her mother to become a child of God is not truly sad. There is for the young nun a peaceful happiness which will make her love for her dear ones greater because of separation. The petaled prayers of hers will fall night after night for the absent and a strong light will brighten her soul. And death, the only real Good-bye, is the most wondrous of all. The parting one is assured of a glorious reunion, a reunion which will be all perfect. Soon, soon, he will know the stirring beauty of those whose souls he loved. In God's heart he shall love them more fully. Thus each separation whispers of something more beautiful in the future because of the past. The sister knows her dear ones now through prayer. The dying man will soon invade the very souls of those he leaves. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
