St. Rita

I went to Quenta Nârwenion because I wanted to see how many of the past ten posts mentioned John Henry Newman (two this time).

And I came across her tribute to St. Rita whose feast day was just celebrated on May 22, (which is also my wedding anniversary). I'm not sure how to take the fact that she is the patroness of "difficult marriages". Consolation or worry? And isn't "difficult marriage" redundant? :~)
