If so, how did u feel after it? and during it?

i know for the eastern timed people it was at 3am, and most people didnt watch it, but i stayed up, i got like 3 hours of sleep.

anywho i watched almost all of it, i felt sad, confused about life, and pride.

Its nice to see so many Catholics in one place, to prayed for a man that gave alot to the world, thats were the pride came in.

I was just confused about life b/c he did so much, he gets this big funeral, and now it is like he is gone, hes going to be forgotten soon. Same like most of us, after we die, with no big funeral.

what about u guys?
If u have nothing good to say, plz keep it out.

I got up the watch it and I must say it as the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. This Pope has done allot of wonderful things for the world. He's teaching of life were right on.

I've never seen so many BIG leaders from around the world like that in one place. There are leaders that don't even talk to one another but today there was a change in that.

I'm so glad I went to world youth day in Toronto, I appreciated it even more.

God Bless..

Yeah, I bet it was just as beautiful as carrying him around on a slab for 2 or 3 days....they might has well of cruicified him and stood him in the square..

After seeing the pope ridiculously on display on every station, I decided that id had enough grieving...

You and me both man; WYD 2002 was amasing for the sheer experience of being within arms length of JP2 as the Popemobile came right in front of the spot I was standing at at Exhibition Place.

That's him, looking right at my Youth Group from Georgia.







May we be so lucky to have another Pope that can be even a tenth as great a man as JP2 was.

The only thing I'd get up to watch that early is a World Cup football match. Or maybe a live televised coverage of the end of the world.
