Regular Confession
“Little temptations to anger, suspicion, jealousy, envy, flirtation, vanity, frivolity, duplicity, affectation, deceit, unchaste thoughts – these are the trials which even the most devout and resolute person must constantly face.” St. Francis de Sales
The grace of going to regular Confession “has a remedial power and helps to remove the very roots of sin.” St. John Paul II

“I measure every Grief I meet
With narrow, probing, eyes –
I wonder if It weighs like Mine –
Or has an Easier size.” Emily Dickinson
