The beauty of Catholicism ✝️

🌹Happy Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception🌹

Most holy Virgin,
who pleased our Lord and became His Mother,
Virgin Immaculate in your body and soul,
in your faith and love,
at this solemn jubilee of the promulgation of the dogma
which proclaimed you
to the entire world as conceived without sin,
look kindly on us, unfortunate ones,
who implore your powerful protection.
The infernal serpent,
upon whom the primeval curse was laid,
continues, alas, to attack and tempt
the hapless children of Eve.
Ah! Do you, our blessed Mother,
our Queen and Advocate,
who at the first moment of your conception
did crush the enemy’s head,
do you gather together our prayers
and we beseech you (our hearts one with yours),
present them before God’s throne,
that we may never allow ourselves
to be caught in the snares laid for us
but that we may reach the portal of salvation
and that the Church and Christian society
may once more chant the hymn of deliverance,
of victory and of peace.
Amen

Pope St Pius X

In honour of Our Lady on this happy Feast of the Immaculate Conception!

“Gaudete in Domino semper”
“Rejoice in the Lord always”

~Philippians 4:4-5

For many of us women, Our Lady becomes truly our role model.
It's especially nowadays that a lot of us grow with female role models that are far from the ideal, and once we find a Mother like Her, perfect, full of Grace, we truly grasp how much we missed on and how much we have to work in ourselves to become worthy wives and mothers.
This Advent has been -personally speaking- very challenging and rewarding.
My advice is to always seek Her, for she truly won't disappoint nor abandon.

A very useful skill to practice nowadays. Eggs are usually the most complete food nutritionally speaking and the one food that has a short lifespan if they're store bought and kept in the fridge.

Reject ‘The Great Reset’

Try to fulfill as many points as possible:

👉🏻 Have more than two children (Bill Gates hates that trick!)
👉🏻 Eat lots of meat, feed bugs to chickens only (Klaus Schwab hates that trick!)
👉🏻 Stop eating more than 8g of sugar per day (it makes you addicted) and cut out white sugar period.
👉🏻 Stop watching p0rn and reduce your alcohol consumption.
👉🏻 Consume alternative and objective media. Learn how to read and interpret scientific studies.
👉🏻 Learn one new hard skill per week/month (do you know how to ferment food)?
👉🏻 Tell someone you love them. It helps you both.
👉🏻 Learn from the past – read old books.
👉🏻 Drive an older vehicle without many electronics. (I drive a 1993 Chevy Suburban)
👉🏻 Reject vaccination and CO2 passports and digital IDs and currencies.
👉🏻 Be self-sufficient regarding water, food, and electricity.
👉🏻 Own your land and farm it (agroforestry and permaculture). Improve the soil of your land.
👉🏻 Be prepared to protect yourself and your property.
👉🏻 Insist on your privacy, stop using email like Hotmail, Gmail, etc, they save everything, switch to something line Proton or Tutanota.
👉🏻 Pay with cash, avoid bonus programs.
👉🏻 Consider homeschooling to avoid the kids getting brainwashed.
👉🏻 Connect with like-minded people.
👉🏻 Take responsibility for your own health.
👉🏻 Turn off your TV. (Maybe smash it)
👉🏻 Continue expressing your opinion. Don't comply!
👉🏻 Exercise more, and reduce your time on social media instead (except reading this channel).
👉🏻 Buy local products; boycott Nestlé, PepsiCo, Unilever, Kraft, etc. And all companies using aborted fetal cells for flavoring.
👉🏻 Constantly work on the spiritual life, meditate every day.
👉🏻 Reduce the usage of Google and Meta platforms. They are data leeches and probably know more about yourself than you actually do.
👉🏻 Invest part of your money in self-sufficiency, land, etc. Don't put all your trust in big banks. Keep cash on hand always.
👉🏻 Ditch big banks and join your local credit union.
👉🏻 Support unbiased scientists and politicians. They need it.
👉🏻 Ditch the mask and smile at people. Positive vibes are contagious

"For, this day, is born to you a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord, in the city of David. And this shall be a sign unto you: You shall find the infant wrapped in swaddling clothes, and laid in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly army, praising God, and saying: 'Glory to God in the highest; and on earth peace to men of good will.'"—Luke 2:11-14.

Pray for the repose of his soul.

This is the progression of a godless society.
Pray for the conversion of sinners.

Saint Tatiana in a church ceiling in Sant'Agostino, Rome

St. Tatiana is my Confirmation saint. Here's a bit of her story.
According to legend, she was the daughter of a Roman civil servant who was secretly Christian, and raised his daughter in the faith. She was actively participating in piety acts when one day the jurist Ulpian captured her and tried to force her to accept paganism at an Apollo temple. She suffered beatings and different tortures and, she never denied the Faith nor ceased praying.
She was beheaded with a sword ca. 226 AD.

This is probably my favorite cooking book. It's a compilation of traditional pasta recipes from nonnas from all over Italy. A true gem worth keeping.
