What does it meant to become a Saint?

Want to be a Saint?

What does it meant to become a saint?
To work, toil, pray, contemplate till you fall and faint?
Some say yes and the other say no!
If by chance the question pokes me I will definitely acclaim “I don’t know!”

Understanding the concept of don Bosco is best and useful.
For he said, “Holiness consists in being cheerful
Jump, play, sing and do not sin.” He further said.
Thus we cannot become a saint by withdrawing ourselves to the dessert.

The first saint who adapt so well to Don Bosco’s teaching is Dominic Savio.
He did not hesitate but just follow
Thanks be to God for this young saint
For following his example, joy and happiness we shall gain.

This is the response to the very first question
And all of us are called to achieve certain perfection
Not by remaining moody, serious and doleful,
But with joy and enthusiasms for, “holiness consists in being cheerful.”
