October has arrived, and with it the Month of Mary and her rosary.  I don't know if you can relate to this, but I have started and stopped and been inconsistent in my rosary recitation for quite a long time.  Fortunately, Our Lord is a patient God, and Mary is a patient Mother!  I have decided, and I encourage you to join me, to rededicate myself to praying this wonderful prayer.  And something inspired me to try and pray 15 decades everyday, not just 5.  I figure anyone who prays 5 decades of the rosary everyday is doing a wonderful thing.  But if you can somehow manage, I have discovered how amazing it is to be reflecing on the life, death, and resurrection of our Lord and Mary's involvement throughout the day.  We only have one life to live, and I figure I can eliminate watching football for a large part of my Sunday, and get it in, and certainly Saturday too in between chores.  And even during the week, when I wake up I am going to try and say the joyful mysteries, the sorrowful when I get home with my duties for the day, and the glorious in the evening instead of watching news on TV.  I will continue writing on the rosary this month, but I leave you with my prayers for Our Lady's protection and support in all your temporal and spiritual needs.
