Theology 911 - Final Exam
Why The Holy Mother Was So Sad
John Paul II died and went to heaven. St Peter met him at the gate and said: "John Paul, you did such a wonderful job for us on earth, we'd like to do something special for you. You name it; it's yours."John Paul thought for a moment and said: "I'd like a private audience with the Holy Mother." St Peter told him it would be arranged.
On the appointed day, St Peter escorted John Paul to the Holy Mother's sanctuary. John Paul went before Her, knelt, and said:
"Holy Mother, I've always looked to You for guidance, and You have granted me peace and serenity through some difficult times. But I have one question that has nagged me during my whole time on earth. In all the paintings that were done of you, and in all the sculptures that were carved of you, you always looked so sad. Why is that?"
Mary thought for a moment, pursing her lips. Then she said: "I always wanted a girl."
