Feeling Discouraged

I've been feeling REALLY discouraged lately. Life's just taking it's toll on me. I love where I live and the friends I live with. I love being back in Steubenville and the classes I'm taking. But still, something's wrong.

I got some serious tough love from Fr. Greg last night that absolutely broke my heart. I was telling him how tempted I was to just give up and he said that when I cut, it hurt him. Well, I didn't really believe him. I have it in my head that when I cut, it only hurt me. Well, he explained to me last night how it hurt him. It broke my heart to know that I've hurt him so much.


I get e-mailed a Catholic quote everyday. It was like today's was meant for me: "No one, however weak, is denied a share in the victory of the cross. No one is beyond the help of the prayer of Christ." -St. Leo the Great

I'm headed out to Washington, D.C. this weekend to see Fr. Greg. I'm really looking forward to seeing him :)

  1. I love those pics and thanks to you have just found the blog :)

    One verse came to mind as I read your post. It is one of my favourites but maybe we both need it

    Psalm 31:24 (NIV)
    Be strong and take heart, all you who hope in the Lord.
