"Discover your mission and begin to live the life you are supposed to live and you will discover the beauty and joy of life, even in the midst of the crosses. Saints were not the depressing and boring figures the world makes them out to be. The saints were the most joyful people to ever walk the earth. Focus on your mission and like the saints, you will come to see the struggles of life not as a burden but as an integral part of the process. You will find a peace that can't be taken from you and does not depend on substance or circumstance. You will find everlasting joy."
Ordinary Lives Extraordinary Mission-5 Steps to Winning the War Within by John Wood-p.176
(The above book was given out to every parishioner in my parish, in the Spring, in the hope each person would read it and gain from it. I read it and found some nuggets of truth and wisdom within it.)
