Rich Young Man


I have a framed print "Head of Christ" in my room. Happens to be a detail from a painting of today's Gospel of the "rich young man" who...went away sad. You see the detail of Christ a lot more often than you see the full picture--or a detail of his young questioner. (I still remember Pope John Paul's great homily on that Gospel, begging the young people before him, "Do not go away sad!")

Just found the greatest little piece from a February "Colbert Report" to go with the Gospel, too. Enjoy!
