Holy Is the Lamb-Anaphora

Life comes out of a woman's womb!
Life makes the new born cry!
Life has has only four stages!
Life can be holy or damned!  
Life offers happiness to a few!
Life condemns many to sadness!
Life battles with death daily, 
Life lives in me, but it has no thrill!

Dear Andrew, much of what you describe is very true, but I hate to think your life has "no thrill." Wish I could raise your spirits, my friend. Congrats on your win. Love, Carolyn
