“Into [the Rosary] one may take
his whole life – joys and sorrows, men and things, everything – as he would take it to someone whose presence he finds restful, not to find out how he might act with more success, but to put everything into a proper light.”
-Romano Guardini
For Reflection:

For this reason, the Portuguese kings did not wear a crown, since it was reserved exclusively for the Immaculate Virgin.
