To the original mysteries of the rosary Pope John Paul II added the Mysteries of Light. Marian devotees have adapted almost everything about the rosary to draw meaning for their lives. A bishop used to recite each of the 10 Hail Marys in a different language. I too have enjoyed reciting each decade in a different language. During journeys I limit myself to just one Hail Mary after meditating on each mystery and its meaning for me today. One day, while reciting the rosary, I imagined a different set of sorrowful mysteries. Bro. John Paul FSP and I have created these alternate sorrowful mysteries to pray the rosary. These mysteries are framed dialectically. Let Mary accompany us in this prayer as she once did with Jesus.
