I was wondering about a before and after shower scene panel for that Saint who was buried up to her waist in a garden for a summer. If a non-seethru covering with capped sleeves could be attached, then we could view it.

The before could represent the hardships of crossing the plains and the after could demonstrate the abundance that comes with pre-mortal obedience.

There were one comment, from Fence Sitter.
Apparently he has seen...
- Whenever a poet or preacher, chief or wizard spouts gibberish, the human race spends centuries deciphering the message. - Umberto Eco
- To assert that the earth revolves around the sun is as erroneous as to claim that Jesus was not born of a virgin. - Cardinal Bellarmine at the trial of Galilei
