Our thoughts, words and actions enrich or diminish us. They can also help or hurt others. Our memories, feelings and affections can make us happy, live in peace and enoble us. They can also cause us to be sad, live miserably and degrade us. How we live and act can be a blessing or a curse toward others.
Human nature seeks relief from worry and distress.
We often need comfort and grace during physical or mental pain and anxiety. We need virtue and wisdom to enjoy life fully. The doctors of the Church are a sure and safe guide to discover vibrant living for ourselves and the opportunity to share it with others. All the doctors are saints, but not all the saints are doctors. The saints are like stars.
