"I love watching the Tour de France! When I was a senior at DeSales University I joined the cycling team. We competed with many universities around the East coast. I did this primarily so I could claim to be a collegiate athlete for the rest of my life. In reality, I was not much of a competitor, and I cycled because I really enjoyed the sport. . . .
"I've never forgotten that lesson that the best cyclists fall. I crashed in Boston for my second race. I healed. . . .
"A similar insight appears from Francis and Jane over and over again. . . ."
In a recent commentary based on the writings of St. Francis de Sales, Father Joe Newman, OSFS, reflected on our falling, healing, and persevering in our love of God and neighbor.
