A Small Tweak

In a spirit of fellowship and camraderie, not just to be mean, I share this snippet from Alban Goodier S.J.:

from Spiritual Excellence Alban Goodier

Put a check upon self-seeking, on self-gratification, on looking for reward, and you will have cleared the ground. Be led by something more than mere argument, mere reasoning of your own, that dead and fallacious thing that is the offspring of man's short sight. See without turning aside the compelling force of truth in itself, of nobility in itself, of beauty in itself, of goodness in itself, wherever these may be found. Submit to them without drawing back; be guided by them without flinching. (p. 17)
