99 After a while, I asked them both if there was anything else they would like to see, and both said “yes, the Butterfly Enclosure”. Unfortunately, the path to the Butterfly Enclosure was a gravel one. Fortunately, we managed it, so we had lunch and I asked if there was anything else they wanted to see. Both said “no, thank you, let us go home”. Because of my state of health at the time, Helen and I looked at each other and, in our minds, said ‘thanks be to God’. On another occasion, I took four elderly Priests out for lunch in Dromana. I was then seventy-eight years old, and the eldest was ninety-five. While we were eating, I asked if they were willing to declare their ages, so we would know how many years of life we had in total. They all agreed, and our ages together added up to a total of four hundred and thirty-four years. I know I am a sinner, but I think the biggest sin I have committed was in the Church. My wife’s uncle had a cousin who was a Priest. He was away on holiday when he heard that his cousin had died. When he arrived back home, I went to see him after Mass to tell him I was sorry to hear that his cousin had passed away. He responded in a friendly way, saying that he wished he could have been present at his funeral. This happened about four weeks before Easter, so I asked him if he would allow me to place a poster promoting the Passion Play on the Notice Board. I could not believe his reply. He went crazy, saying “leave me alone, I have more important things to do”. He threw his arms up in the air, turned around, and left me stunned. Silently, in my mind, I called him something that I should never do inside the Church. I hope God will forgive me and him for not allowing me to do something that I am doing for God. While I have already had an excellent life, full of highlights, one of the best was the privilege of having a private conversation with Mother Teresa (now Saint Teresa). I received a phone call from the Mother Superior in Melbourne, saying that an appointment had been made for Helen and me to meet her. Unfortunately, I could not contact Helen at the time, so I had to go on my own. I was so nervous, as there were just the two of us in the room, that I cannot remember our discussion.
