"The Confession of St. Patrick" is a fascinating read. Written by St. Patrick himself, it offers an intimate look at his journey from his captivity and life as a slave to becoming one of Ireland’s most celebrated saints.

What stands out to me is how personal and relatable his story feels, even after all these centuries. His humility and his deeply rooted faith helps him to place the events in his life in a broader perspective that feels much more authentic than most of the legendary tales that emerged over time.
