"Look at the face of the other…
Discover that he has a soul, a history and a life, that he is a person and that God loves this person."

- Pope Benedict XVI

Part of what I've been trying to do this semester, especially because I'm riding the bus every day, is to never act like a person is invisible. That doesn't mean I talk to everyone I pass, but I try to notice everyone around me and smile or say hello when it seems appropriate. I've ended up having some conversations with homeless people or other random strangers at bus stops and other places. I told my sister-in-law that riding the bus was awful (because of the schedule and route) and she said, "Because of all the homeless people?" But that's definitely not it. We definitely need to start seeing people as human beings. After all, they are loved by God and as Fr. Baker pointed out, we might just see that person again in heaven. In fact, we hopefully will. 

I'm praying for you!
