I got an unsolicited advise from an older lady about 60ish I am more than 10ish years younger. This advise came because I work in a factory for 10 hours in a day and she wants me to walk instead of taking the bus to work and after work. But I said, my body is already tired from manual labor (standing and carrying heavy stuff) and to do that is just not possible without wearing myself since according to her I have lost a lot of weight because I was not walking properly and not eating properly. So she said, the solution is to walk. When I mentioned to her my alarm at 4am. She told me to cut my prayers short because God does not want to hear a sleepy person praying and that my health is more important. So I need to walk in order to strengthen my muscles. It is a 30 minute bus ride to work. She insists to walk with me everyday (she is a retired banker) and tells me it is easy. She is one of the reason why I don't want to go to mass anymore, because I don't want to see her and some of the ladies there. There are other unsolicited advise from other older ladies too, perhaps I really look very stupid that is why I get all advises. Another advise is not to give money anymore to my aging and retired more than 70ish year old father. Their advise is loving me of course, although I find it very annoying but annoying as it is these does not make me a better person either. I forgive them but I really don't want to meet them at mass because they want to talk to me after mass which I really cannot bear. I run after mass right away towards the door but they get offended and call me or text me why I didn't said hello to them. People can be so annoying, . But they are so persistent, knock on my door to talk to me which I don't want to. So, yes, I can relate to this. My neighbors are my hairshirt. Perhaps my unholy life is their hairshirt.

Sacrifice, penance, generosity, prayer, = humility, which, if we can achieve, will keep us climbing the road to holiness. The most difficult, ones for me , is patience, and forgivingness. I will make a conscious effort, daily.🙏🙏🙏 Holy Spirit grant me the grace, to forgive.
