Cry kingly tears, lose fear of suffering to be happy on earth, give up this life for That Life, bless the sufferings that bring purification, Alms go beyond physical well-being, voluntary atonement for grace in trials, Will > senses, constant self-denial, do not fear the penance far more useful than surgery, your greatest enemy is Self.
from The Way (1934), by JosemarĂa Escrivá
