18 Let your fountain be blessed, and rejoice in the wife of your youth,
19 a lovely deer, a graceful doe. Let her breasts fill you at all times with delight; be intoxicated always in her love.
20 Why should you be intoxicated, my son, with a forbidden woman and embrace the bosom of an adulteress?
21 For a man's ways are before the eyes of the LORD, and he ponders all his paths.
22 The iniquities of the wicked ensnare him, and he is held fast in the cords of his sin.
23 He dies for lack of discipline, and because of his great folly he is led astray.
Proverbs 5:18, ESV

(Swap adulteress for “Only Fan’s whore” and this is aged like fine wine)

Rare Catholic W

16 There are six things that the LORD hates, seven that are an abomination to him:
17 haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
18 a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil,
19 a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers.
Proverbs 6:16, ESV

Jesus Meets His Afflicted Mother

Mary, the mother of Jesus, was the guiding spirit of those who followed in His train, among the poor that surrounded Him; mingling with the sinners and the sick, whose hidden wounds and open sores He healed; listening to the gospel He preached to the people when they sat to hear Him on the summit of the hills of Galilee or on the shores of Genesareth; ministering to Him on His journeys and recognizing Him as the Messiah, the Son of God. What despair must have filled her heart when she learned that He had been apprehended by the soldiers! How her heart must have bled at the treason of Judas! The culminating events of Chríst's career happened so quickly that scarce had the mother heard of His arrest when she learned that He was condemned to death. With a few of her friends she hurried forth to meet Him, to console Him, to save Him.

A surging, raging mob surrounded the square of Roman soldiers in the center of which, crushed down by the weight of a heavy cross, struggled her divine Son. He was on His way to Calvary, crowned with thorns, worn out by the ordeal of His trial. Exhausted by the scourging. Jesus collapsed under the weight of the heavy cross. As the brutal soldiers roughly pulled Him to His feet, His bloodshot eyes met, only for an instant, those of His sorrowing mother, who by some chance had edged her way into the crowd. What pen can write the love and agony of that passing glance! Standing near by man boldly spoke his sympathy, and the soldiers pounced upon him and forced the Cyrenian to carry the cross behind our Lord. Mary must have whispered a blessing upon the head of Simon, for his memory, accidentally as he was associated with the sufferings of Christ, is still blessed. The cross which he carried, even unwillingly, saved himself and his family, for tradition tells us that he and his sons, Rufus and Alexander, became devoted disciples of Jesus and Mary.

Saint John of the Cross is a Top Saint

12 Whoever belittles his neighbor lacks sense, but a man of understanding remains silent.
13 Whoever goes about slandering reveals secrets, but he who is trustworthy in spirit keeps a thing covered.
Proverbs 11:12, ESV

"You Cannot Build Down!" 🔥
- Bishop Fulton J. Sheen
(from EWTN)

Real

Greater is the sinner with humility and self awareness than the upright man who knows he is blameless. Both are sinners, but the humble sinner has sense enough to climb to the heights of Heaven, but the haughty man has conceit enough only to fall to depths of Hell.

People can get so carried away sometimes when people start stoking their ego compelled by their concupiscence…
