Today, I discovered what the real root of all my sins are: sloth. Sloth takes my sight away from God. It makes my idle mind think of ungodly thoughts and be remiss of my responsibilities. It is the cause of all my day-to-day unease and my bigger sufferings, and it is the first stumbling block to grace and my dreams.

I must really stay away from social media – Twitter and Facebook in particular – as both of these media have become sources of intense negativity that ruin my peace by inciting anger and tempting me to be uncharitable.
But just when I made an nth promise to switch off, news of the VP's resignation because of the president's yet another bullying made the Internet abuzz.
Dear God, please help me cast out all the darkness around me. May the Holy Spirit light up my heart so I may always please you. Amen.
