The embrace seen round the world

You might have seen this amazing picture of Pope Francis embracing Dominic Gondreau, a child with cerebral palsy. Dominic's father interpreted the embrace of his son this way: "It shows that sin has not so corrupted the human heart that our intuitive sense, imprinted by the natural law, that we are morally bound to care for the needy is not completely erased."

I don't think anyone could have said it any better.
