Remember to wish a Happy Mother's Day to the greatest mother of all, the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Especially if you have a difficult relationship with your own earthly mom, each one of us can turn to Mother Mary in all our needs, and she will always take us in as her own.

yearly lenten reminder that people with disabilities or illnesses that would make fasting dangerous are exempt from the obligation to fast, and that includes eating disorders. restricting our eating for any reason puts people with a history of eating disorders at high risk of relapse. it can be frustrating to not be able to observe fast days in the same way as others, but we can adopt other penitential practices that are not self-injurious. this is an especially good time to devote more energy to reconciling with our neighbors and practicing the works of mercy. it also helps me to remember that simply coping with illness, including mental illness, can be considered bodily mortification. in the words of saint alphonsus liguori, who was himself disabled: "if bodily weakness renders us unable to practice corporal austerities, let us at least learn ... to embrace with joy the infirmities with which Almighty God visits us. If borne with patience, they will conduct us to perfection better than voluntary works of penance."

hey tumblr. what’s up. so, i worked on this for almost two years and just finished it. it’s a full Catholic liturgical calendar. it’s done in the traditional latin mass style, so it uses the older dates / names / observances. i made the font(s) for it, laid it all out, this easily took me hundreds and hundreds of hours. it’s also the largest thing i’ve ever made - the full print is two feet by three feet, or it comes in four 12x18 quarters. ill post more about it, but i was hustling to get it together in time for the holidays. it’s in my shop at:  https://owen-cyclops.myshopify.com/collections/calendar also, i just wanted to show some people that would be into it or think its cool so, thanks for taking a look. hope your advent / winter vibe is unfolding well

One day a certain nun said to St. Teresa: “I wish that I had lived at the time of Jesus Christ, my dear Saviour, for then I could have seen how amiable and lovely He is.” St. Teresa, on hearing this, laughed outright. “What!” said she, “do you not know, then, dear sister, that the same Jesus Christ is still with us on earth, that He lives quite near us, in our churches, on our altars, in the Blessed Sacrament.”

this is your daily reminder to write that fic! who cares if it’s a dying fandom, bring it back to life! who cares if you only have a sentence, you’ll get there don’t give up! who cares if it’s a self indulgent fic, we love to see it! who cares if it’s an overdone trope, you’re making it unique in your writing style! who cares if it takes you a month to write a fic and then you dip, you’re still writing and sharing your work and that’s what matters! who cares if you write for yourself and never post it, you’re still writing and getting your ideas down and that matters just as much as if you posted it! just keep writing, you got this <3

#hear my soul speak } #to write and read comes by nature } #i should actually be reading this daily lol #the month-then-dip one is so specific yet fits me to a T so i am 🥺🥺🥺-ing rn
