All the things in this world are gifts of God,
created for us, to be the means by which we can come to know him
better, love him more surely, and serve him more faithfully.
As a result, we ought to appreciate and use these gifts of God insofar as they help us toward our goal of loving service and union with God. But insofar as any created things hinder our progress toward our goal, we ought to let them go. ~St. Ignatius of Loyola
-(St Ignatius was a Spanish knight who founded the congregation of Society of Jesus, popularly known as Jesuits, whose feast is marked on July 31, the day he died.)
