Frequent Confession
Embrace your vocation!
“But time given to wishing for what can’t be is not only spent, but wasted, and for all that we waste we shall be accountable.”– Penelope Fitzgerald, The Blue Flower
Embrace your current vocation, don’t look back and don’t waste time dreaming of other possibilities….God will bless your faithful perseverance!

Be yourself!
“No need to hurry. No need to sparkle. No need to be anybody but oneself.”

Worrying too much
Suffering souls
“We mortals, men and women, devour many a disappointment between breakfast and dinner-time; keep back the tears and look a little pale about the lips, and in answer to inquiries say, “Oh, nothing!” Pride helps; and pride is not a bad thing when it only urges us to hide our hurts— not to hurt others.”― George Eliot, Middlemarch
Nothing more inspirational than a suffering soul singing like a bird in a thorn bush…
