Oh what remorse we shall feel at the end of our lives, when we look back upon the great number of instructions and examples afforded
by God and the Saints for our perfection, and so carelessly received
by us! If this end were to come to you today, how would you be
pleased with the life you have led this year? -St. Francis de Sales
Francis de Sales is one of my favorite saints. Not only was he an SFO, but he has a great approach to the spirituality of those of us living in the world. He sees all of us as being able to be saints, working through our vocations. In other words, being a saint is not some unreal, other worldly experience, I know I need to keep that in mind constantly.
