[Magdalen] permission to die with dignity

[Lynn Ronkainen]

I saw a very moving 'short' last night on the news involving this young

When I stand before God at the end of my life I would hope that I have not a 
single bit of talent left and could say, "I used everything You gave me."

Thomas Merton writes, “People may spend their whole lives climbing the 
ladder of success only to find, once they reach the top, that the ladder is 
leaning against the wrong wall.”
