Inspired by a photo entitled, "The Pope greets Mother Teresa in St. Peter's Basilica in 1997". The photo appears in the book Pope John Paul II: A Light for the World.
From the original photo, I removed the throngs of on-lookers, placing them there alone, adding an aura about the two who selflessly dedicated their lives to walking in Christ's path.
They are both now of course Saints of the Church.
