Those who know me best will tell you I am good–very good, in fact–at identifying my shortcomings: bluntness. Impatience. A tendency to put myself and my needs last in favor of people pleasing. In fact,littlesins dwelling on my shortcomings becomes a shortcoming in and of itself.

That’s why I’m looking forward this month to reading Elizabeth Scalia’s Little Sins Mean a Lot: Kicking Our Bad Habits Before They Kick Us. In the book, Scalia details 13 “little sins.” Chapter 3 is titled “Self-Neglect.” I think I’ll start there!
