I agree, Teresa. It was really wonderful.
My own bursting into tears moment was right after yours: Ave Verum by Mozart does it for me every single time. Simply awe inspiring.
Beautiful thoughts, Heike! Isn't it wonderful how many beautiful lthings can be expressed through tears? Who can doubt the sacramental nature of the Holy Mass when even its 'simulacrum' on TV is capable of awakening the spirit almost as well as the actual Mass? It only demonstrates in turn that there is a God who inspires everything that is good about man and in man, and that liturgy is a very powerful way to make his presence felt... It is great to be a Catholic in the Pontificate of Benedict XVI!... He was a bit hoarse today, but he sure chanted the Canon prayers quite vigorously! AD MULTOS ANNOS, BENEDICTE!
