Who is he? I asked. I really do not know much about him but he has a famous quote prior to his conversion:
O Lord, help me to be pure, but not yet. ~ St. Augustine
I have committed this prayer by heart.
It is a daily mantra that I say on the way to work or when I go for a walk. The mantra is very meditative and in the end, it is no longer I that is present but the Spirit of God, in this body.

Help me to be pure, but not yet…

I have a habit of buying cards when I visit places instead of taking pictures. I keep them for a long time, enjoying it and then I mail them out to friends or families.
There is a particular card that I kept and I placed it on altar. When I opened it, I wrote:
December 6, 1991
Course in Miracle
Westminster Abbey
Mission, BC
That is a lifetime ago. It was the time when I still have a car, when the gas price was only 50 cents to a litre, when I owned a four door sedan, V8. The car was a guzzler. But it took me to places where it is unreachable unless one has a private vehicle. I was thankful for this car.
Westminster Abbey is a beautiful serene place situated on top of hill.
I must have taken a retreat at the Abbey but I cannot remember what the course was all about. As for the miracle, the card is still with me. The writing is beautiful and I have memorized it by heart. It was written by St. Augustine.
