More than just an expression of astonishment, "Saints Alive" can help us remember that we are surrounded by saints, good people at all stages of spiritual growth. "God doesn't make junk" as the banner saying goes, so all of his creation is good, even if at various stages of development. Honoring All Saints today is just that, those officially canonized and recognized as being in heaven, and all those who walk with us, sharing wisdom, experiences, joy, failures, hardships, disappointments, mistakes, and efforts to keep moving forward. The wheat grows with the weeds, and even they can provide good for the field. Let us praise and thank God for surrounding us with such goodness and let us pledge to keep moving toward that "perfect version of ourselves" that God has planted in each one of us. Happy Feast Day!
