“Walaupun bukan penganut agama Katolik, kusertai anakku membakar lilin di depan patung Bunda Maria dan Santo Petrus. Dalam hati kumohon Tuhan memberikan semua yang terbaik bagi anak bungsuku. Sebenarnya aku tidak memerlukan patung atau lilin guna menyertai doaku. Setiap saat setiap waktu, begitu teringat kepada kebesaran Tuhanm aku langsung menyebut namaNya sambil mengatakan doa maupun permohonan. "Tuhan itu pemilik semesta alam!" kata ibuku. "Dia mengerti semua bahasa di dunia. Tanpa kauucapkan pun, Dia mengetahui isi batinmu.”
