‘Canto fermo’ is the term for an existing melody used as the basis for a new composition. The prose and poetry of mystics like John of the Cross, Teresa of Avila and Edith Stein – all informed by the Gospel – is my ‘melody’. The ‘new composition’ is this blog and my indie novel ‘The Age for Love’. To buy my book go to amazon.com or smashwords.com and download to your kindle, iPad, phone or any reading device.

FRANCE MAY OUTLAW 'PRO-LIFE PROPAGANDA'
If I were writing these pro-life posts in France, I'd be risking two years in prison and a $30,000 fine. That's the fate proposed for all pro-life websites in a new bill which forbids 'pro-life propaganda' in that country.
France was the first nation as such to convert to the Catholic faith. By the baptism of King Clovis in 496AD, by the inspiration and example of the Saint Clotilda, Queen of the Franks, France received a mission and vocation as 'The Eldest Daughter of the Church'.
We await the response of the bishops of France, 'Eldest Daughter of the Church', to this outrageous offence to Christianity and to God.
