Month of the Holy Rosary

October is the month of the Holy Rosary. I learn how to say a Rosary from my Grandmother when I lived with her. We used to say a Rosary in our family every night or before the Mass at the Church. When I was young, I thought it was a long time to say a Rosary. But it's actually took only 15 minutes. There was a time I did not say a Rosary. I thought saying a Rosary was out of fashion. Reading Bible is a good way.

Later, in my life, everytime I felt desperate, or worry, or sad, or helpless, or anxious I said a Rosary. The first benefit I received immediately is a peace. Both of reading Bible and saying Rosary helped me calm and gave me a hope.

The Rosary has accompanied me in moments of joy and in moments of difficulty. To it I have entrusted any number of concerns; in it I have always found comfort.” (St. John Paul II, Rosarium Virginis Mariae, http://w2.vatican.va/content/john-paul-ii/en/apost_letters/2002/documents/hf_jp-ii_apl_20021016_rosarium-virginis-mariae.html
