Just like I’m an active learner, I’m an active pray-er. When it was my health, and I could only do so much to manage the unmanageable, I turned to my rosary. When I had nothing but fear, faith, and a dash of hope, I repeatedly prayed Hail Marys. And I won’t stop.

I hallucinated a clock. And have endlessly discussed it. Cool.

As I look back, hope never lied to me or led me astray. It promised me life would be hard, but it also assured me that I was up to the challenge. It guaranteed mountains, but gave me the courage to climb them.
