Fr Anthony, a Jesuit priest from England: "A thing that Father McKenna said to me before the novitiate was a great help, "If you ever think of leaving, wait 2 weeks." It is very good practical advice, so you are not just swayed by emotion and you reflect a bit more.. Not long before my vows, when I was seeing the novice master, I said "Do you really think I have a Jesuit vocation?" And there was a long pause that seemed to last forever, and he said "Do you?" That is a very good way of treating a vocation, I think: it has to come back to the person, to reflect, to look at their own heart and their own mind and not to be swayed too much by other people."
