You're always bringing a refined food for my mind and spirit. "For transgressions are the carcinogens of the spiritual life. Like cancer, our own decay makes ruins of ourselves and those we love. When liberated of this persistent poison, how could there not be a celebration?" I appreciate what you write Steven.

Yours is one of the most splendid confessions imaginable:) If you are looking for additional Latin learning resources, you may find this post of interest that I wrote last year to accompany a radio segment I called, "Amo, Amas, Amat...A Case for Latin"https://humanitasfamily.net/2022/02/01/amo-amas-amat-a-case-for-latin/. Wonderful also to hear about your mother's remission!

Excited about your dive into the real mother tongue, my friend. And completely onboard with "I not only had a new mind but new eyes", that's the real and deep value of learning a new language, the new pair of eyes you get through which you see the world.
