Life’s challenges

“Life goes on and life is full of setbacks. You have to fight, that’s all.” Seve Ballesteros
Embracing life’s challenges
Being determined

“I’m proof against that word failure. I’ve seen behind it. The only failure a man ought to fear is failure of cleaving to the purpose he sees to be best.” – George Eliot
Sticking with it!
Trust in God!

“There is nothing more pleasing to God, than to see a soul who patiently and serenely bears whatever crosses it is sent; this is how love is made, by putting lover and loved one on the same level. . .” St. Alphonsus Ligouri
Trust in God!
Culture

“I have come to think that care of the soul requires a high degree of resistance to the culture around us, simply because that culture is dedicated to values that have no concern for the soul.” Thomas Merton
