As I walked along the beach, I witnessed an incredible encounter between friends. This young boy, around 10, was walking to the water with his family. He spotted his friend who was already enjoying the water. He yelled out his friends name "Doug," and ran towards him. "Doug" did the same. They embraced each other with great happiness. They were so happy to see each other they could not hide it from others. What was even more beautiful one of the boys was African-American and the other anglo. They were elated to be with each other.
Blessed Kateri had to embrace another religion, another culture. I believe her happiness in doing so was similar to these two boys.
