Light, Life, Love...catching fire?

J.M.J. + O.B.T. + M.G.R.*

It's a welcome surprise when I find the Catholic World
waking to the importance of the three-in-one, 
and in this case, the primacy of light, life and love.

But with that lone reference in mind, here is a number worth pondering: 161. That's the number of times the word “love” appears. The word “light”? 149. The word “life”? 91. Those three words, I suggest, are together a sort of thematic trinity (all the more memorable, I suppose, because of the alliteration, at least in English).
