Joy of being a Jesuit

My buddy Leo loved being a Jesuit and it showed! He had a rich spiritual life and tried to help me develop mine. He gave me a book by Thomas Kempis which helped me grow. I had never before read a book that was meant to be read a page per day. To help me understand why it was crucial that I only read a page per day he likened reading each page to enjoying a steak. Like a steak, the wisdom on each page was to be savored and carefully digested.
