3 Page 3 November 20, Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe Reflections from Fr. Brian 33rd Christ the King and Thanksgiving When Queen Victoria of England pinned one of England s highest awards on Helen Keller, she asked Miss Keller, How do you account for your remarkable accomplishments in life? How do you explain the fact that even the though you were blind, deaf, and mute, you were able to accomplish so much? Without a moment s hesitation, Helen Keller said, If it had not been for Anne Sullivan, the name of Helen Keller would have remained unknown. While we know Helen Keller s story, most of us do not know who saw the potential in Anne Sullivan. As a young girl, Anne Sullivan was known as Little Annie. She was diagnosed as being hopelessly insane and was locked in the basement of a mental institution outside Boston. Little Annie would on occasion violently attack anyone who came near her. At other times she would completely ignore them. An elderly nurse believed there was hope for the child and felt she could communicate love and hope to her. The nurse daily visited Little Annie, but for a long time Little Annie gave no indication she was aware of her presence. The elderly nurse persisted and repeatedly brought cookies and left them in her room. Soon the doctors in the institution noticed a change. After a period of time, they moved Little Annie upstairs. Finally the day came when this seemingly hopeless case was released. Filled with compassion for others because of her institution experience, Little Annie, Anne Sullivan, wanted to help others. Because Anne Sullivan s life had been miraculously opened, she was able to open the life of Helen Keller, as Jesus opened the life of the deaf mute. As we celebrate Thanksgiving this year, let us pray that we are open to acknowledge God as the giver of all our gifts --- both materially and spiritually. He has opened our eyes and ears to see and hear the needs of those less fortunate than ourselves. By helping ourselves to become more like Jesus as Anne Sullivan was to Helen Keller, not a bad way to live our ministry in faith.
