PQOTD: A rainy weekend for the pope and me

This past weekend a friend visited me in DC and we often found ourselves dogged by rain.

Well, it looks like the pope was in the same boat during a recent trip, but found a silver lining:

"Dear young people, unfortunately, the rain followed me in these days," said Pope Benedict XVI Sunday in Genoa, "but let us take it as a sign of blessing, fertility for the land, even as a symbol of the Holy Spirit who comes and renews the earth, the dry earth of our souls."

Okay, I guess I have nothing to complain about either.
