I miss Pope John II

Maybe it sounds strange that I miss someone I never meet in person. But that feeling is real. My idol was and is Pope John II and I miss him much today. Then I search for his picture on the internet and I find this one.

It's quite comforting that I can find this picture and I can feel that I meet him again; though I never meet him before. But looking at his picture, it is as if I am meeting him. Quite strange, again!

I ever planned to make a travel to Rome to meet him. Though I knew that it was very impossible to meet him though I could reach Rome. That time I was so sure that I could meet him before he died. But it remained a dream for he was dead and mightbe I could never collected enough money to go to Rome.

What was my plan if I could meet him? nothing, I just wanted to meet him, sake his hand, and maybe ask for his bless. I just wanted to meet him. Anyway, that was what I intended long time ago.

However, the country I dream to visit is still Rome. I wish I could one day go to Rome and maybe I can still meet him though only his tomb.

I know this is quite strange and maybe not proper. But it is what I feel.
