Irony

St. Ignatius discerned his vocation through the use of his imagination and reading about the lives of Saints before him; imaginations are fraught with emotions. This very same man goes on to write the Spiritual Exercises which involve rational, critical thought and stresses the need to be devoid of emotion.

Yikes. Guess there's a saint for everyone - I'm known for logic and reason and such in the real world, but then there's Written in Memories... home of the emo-stanza. I'm glad to find a rolemodel who was like me in this!
