He is stunned and perplexed that, even though she spent 75 years of her life in Japan, sacrifcing much, she is still a fulfilled woman who completed her vocation. Does he really believe that she lived in Japan for three quarters of a century because she wanted a "career" instead of a family, and that she was "lured" into missionary work? She was motivated by a profoundness which the post-modern and secular mind refuses to comprehend, so we are told that she must have been tricked into her decision to leave Ireland. His documentary could have been much more inspiring and truthful if he had put aside his bias and prejudice. <br /><br />JacquesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
