  A pilgrimage is a path of conversion.
  I made a good confession here...
  ...and received absolution here...
  ...in front of the Pieta.
  The door is Christ.
  At the Basilica of St. Peter...
  ...we left behind the stagnant, stale and sinful.
  At the Basilica of St. John Lateran...
  ...we stepped into what is freeing and fresh.
  At the Basilica of St. Paul Outside the Walls...
  ...we remembered that Jesus is the door to salvation.
  At the Basilica of St. Mary Major...
  ...we learned from the past, hoped in the future and lived in the present.
  At the Pope's Wednesday audience...
  ...the Swiss guards were at attention...
  ...the Archbishop was on the jumbo screen...
  and the brides and grooms were blessed.
  In the morning the sun shone into St. Peter's...
  ...moments before our hands touched.
  At night the lights shone on St.Peter's...
  ...moments before the Pope went to bed.
