I imagined that others hold me in high esteem. I did not
practise what my Confessor set me with regard to humility. 5.

Sunday 16

I considered myself equal to a Saint in certain things. I
was pleased when they assigned more girls to my Catechism
class; I would have been unhappy if they had entrusted them
to another Teacher. I let slip a few opportunities to practise
what my Confessor instructed me with regard to humility. 3.

Monday 17

I imagined it was thanks to me that another person did a
good deed. I made a show of being familiar with spiritual
things. When I was reproached for something I tried to prove
myself right by telling another person of it. I showed a person a

thing I had made. 4.

Tuesday 18

I was sorry I could not write properly a thing that had to
be made public. I was anxious at being unable to answer a
question made to me and I took a long time thinking it over till I
could give an answer to my own satisfaction. I did not like it
when another girl was praised because I expected all the
praise for myself. I felt important because a person asked for
my advice. 4.
