• We all have rosy memories of a simpler, happy time- a time of homemade apple pie and gingham curtains, a time when Mom understood everything and Dad could fix anything. "Let's get those traditional family values back!" we murmur to each other. Meanwhile, in a simultaneous universe, everyone I know, and every celebrity I don't know, is coming out of the closet to talk about how miserable they are because they grew up in dysfunctional families.

All these weirdos, and me getting a little better right in the midst of them. I had never known, never even imagined for a heartbeat, that there might be a place for people like us.

• Now are the days, of humblest prayer,
  When consciences to God lie bare,
  And mercy most delights to spare.
  Oh hearken when we cry.
  Now is the season, wisely long,
  Of sadder thought and graver song,
  When ailing souls grow well and strong.
  Oh hearken when we cry.
  The feast of penance! Oh so bright,
  With true conversion's heavenly light,
  Like sunrise after stormy night!
  Oh hearken when we cry.
  Oh happy time of blessed tears,
  Of surer hopes, of chast'ning fears,
  Undoing all our evil years.
  Oh hearken when we cry.
  Chastise us with Thy fear;
  Yet, Father! in the multitude
  Of Thy compassions, hear!
