M thinks this is really funny

Saint Verena [...] joined the Theban Legion in its mission to Rhaetia (modern day Switzerland) and was a relative of Saint Victor, [also] of the Theban Legion. The Soldiers' relatives were allowed to accompany them in order to look after them and take care of their wounds.
When Saint Maurice, Saint Victor and the other members of the Theban Legion were martyred, Saint Verena led a lonely and hermit life [...] and moved into a cave near present day Zurich.

She used to fast and pray continuously. Moreover, God performed several miracles through her.
She was particularly concerned over young girls and used to look after them spiritually and PHYSICALLY, due to her EXPERTISE as a nurse.

As a result of her fame, the ruler arrested her and sent her to jail, where Saint Maurice appeared to her to console and strengthen her. After her release from jail, she moved into several regions, and God made several miracles through her prayers (again!).

Due to her, many converted to Christianity (YESSSSSS!).

Saint Verena was interested in serving the poor and used to offer them food (that she could not eat herself). Moreover, she enjoyed serving the sick, especially those suffering from leprosy. She used to wash their wounds and put ointments on them, NOT FEARING INFECTION (EWWWW!). At the time of departure of Saint Verena from our world, the Most Holy Virgin Mary appeared to her to console and strengthen her.

Bald



[...] I noticed you're smiling
Out in the sun, having fun and feeling free
And I can tell you know how hard this life can be
But you keep on smiling for me

[...]
Or all the above, oh how I love to see you smiling
And oh yeah, take a little pain just in case
You need something warm to embrace
To help you put on a smiling face

[...]
I want to leap whenever I see you smiling
Because its easily one of the hardest things to do
Your worries and fears become your friends
And they end up smiling at you

Put on a smiley face
