Experience the beauty of God’s creation in one of his unsullied areas. Don’t forget trail mix. Say a rosary while you’re at it.
10. Write Poetry
Write a poem, especially if you’ve never done so before. It doesn’t have to change the world–just access a different part of your intellect. Address it to God if you’re embarrassed to give it to a mere mortal. Pictured here is the tortured Catholic poet Oscar Wilde. (Caution: don’t lose your mind.) Once definitive proof is shown that Shakespeare was Catholic, this post will be updated.
11. Evangelize
With heart, mind, soul, and strength restored, go spread the Good News to whomever will listen. Have a great summer!
