As a Canadian it was important for us to stop and pay our respects to Marion Jack the outstanding Baha'i Painter and spiritual hero of the Baha'i world community. Her Grave is in a very cool old European graveyard near the center of Sofia. For the same reasons that Aja and I are traveling, that is the belief in the oneness of humanity and the conviction that world unity and peace will be achieved through knowledge and understanding, is also the reason Marion Jack moved to this foreign land from her homeland of Canada. While we are just moving through these lands, she decided to stay and make it her home even through the hardships, dangers and trials of the second world war. It was nice to have time to spend visiting her resting place and thinking of her.http://www.flickr.com/photos/26080359@N08/sets/72157623254184094/
