Translation:

🕯️Prayer to Our Lady of departed little ones

“We turn our hearts and our gaze towards You, Mother of Life and Mother of consolation. You have received the mission to lead all the children of men to Jesus. You take care of every human being that God created out of love and entrusts to your motherhood.
Accept our prayer for this child, N., who was not born. He was known and loved by God from his conception; that he may live in your kingdom, near Christ who triumphed over death.
Mother of the deceased little ones, come and console us in our pain and make us grow in the hope of finding this child one day, with You, in Heaven. So be it.
Our Lady Liberator, pray for us. »

Studying the relationship between premarital sexual experience and marital sexual satisfaction

Liberals have always pushed this myth that religious people, and individuals who refrain from premarital sex end up having unsatisfying sexual lives after marriage. Their reasoning being that since these people don't "gain sexual experience", and don't embrace kinks, and also since in their view religion hates sex, then religious people have awful sex lives.
However multiple studies have shown that having more sexual experience before marriage ends decreasing sexual satisfaction after marriage.

Beware of destination addiction:
The idea that happiness is in the next place, the next job, or even with the next partner.
Until you give up the idea that happiness is somewhere else, it will never be where you are.
