Thank you so much.

That's that's so kind.

And I said, Um, which book?

And she thought for a minute and she said, um

The orange one.

I just thought that you're up, you're down.

Your book your book changed their life and then they can't remember the title.

So you know, it's I th I thought it was great.

It was just so human and so real and I just thought, you know, you can't get too much of a swelled head.

Um Matt, we have an audience question.

And uh that we take an audience question and I will

read it and then I'll give my own two cents.

And uh then you can give your two cents.

Um so this is from Kate.

And Kate asks, I am often moved to tears at mass, but don't understand why do others experience this.

So Kate, um, interestingly, and Matt will know this from being uh Jesuit educated, Saint Ignatius called this the gift of tears.

Yeah.

And uh he often had this at mass, uh so much so that his eyes were starting to bother him and

In a very practical Ignatian way, he went to a doctor, I love this story, who said if you keep crying, you're not going to be able to do your work.

And Ignatius very practically said, Well, okay, then I'll stop crying because he needed to do his work.
