sloth really eats at the soul... it becomes progressively easier to neglect what is worth doing, and progressively harder to neglect the phantom need to rest or indulge in pointless activities.
as i return to this old blog, let me share a quote i found. this hit me hard, as a slacker...
"Never be hurried by anything whatever - nothing can be more pressing than the necessity for your peace before God. You will help others more by the peace and tranquility of your heart than by any eagerness or care you can bestow on them." Saint Elizabeth Seton
sometimes, what is worth doing is simply being still and knowing that the Lord is near.

and who says priests do not change the world? their own little worlds, maybe.
