Michelangelo’s Madonna della Pieta

            Night-Time at Carfin Grotto, Scotland. A replica of Michelangelo’s masterpiece “Madonna della Pieta”. I see true feminine bravery depicted in the sculpture. A mother must hand her child over to the world regardless of how inhospitable and dangerous it may be. For a Mother to give up Her children to society and allow them the freedom to discover heartache, pain and suffering for themselves without interference, is true feminine bravery. Mary gave her son to the world knowing full well He would suffer more than any other human before and after. He in turn gave us, the world, His Mother, as a gift from Heaven to help us carry our crosses up the hill and to strengthen Our resolve & Our faith while we face our deepest fears.
