Oh!I really find the of St.Lucy so interesting to read. In fact, it is my family saint's name and I'm proud to be a part of st.Lucy family "the shining Light". I will never forget her life story. I wanted to imitate her courageous acts.
I think her stories are very interesting. I love the fact that her man wanted to kill her when she ditched him at the altar. I think thats totally stick-to-it-iveness to her real Man... God!
P.S (stick-to-it-iveness IS in fact a WORD. I looked it up in Websters.)
