Read the lives of the saints. You will find everything in them, they will teach you everything. Compare yourself not with your neighbors, but with the saints - such a comparison reveals to us how sinful we are.

I would love to be a father. I had a great father who taught me how gratifying that is. I'm not going to deny myself that. I think I'd be good at it. Everybody wants that experience. I definitely do.
