The Pope and I

I was reading an old book I had and between the pages I found an postcard-like card with a photograph of John Paul II. He was the Pope when I was born and till now, he is still Pope as far as I'm concerned.

That led me to wonder... Why don't I consider Benedict XVI as the Pope now that he is, in fact, the Pope? I know it 'factually'. I just don't feel it. The word 'Pope' always brings to my mind the image of John Paul II.

Maybe a few more years as Pope will allow me to see Benedict XVI as the Pope. :p
