If you were a canonized saint, what would you be patron saint of?

If I put this to a family vote, it would likely go like this:

According to my husband, I'd be the patron saint of avid readers.

The kids would definitely vote for patron saint of the absent-minded.

And I know most of my siblings would recommend patron saint of people who can't cook rice.

Me? I'd settle for patron saint of those who care for elderly dogs.

(((Veritas)))

If anything, I would have to be the patron saint of the chronically absent minded. If you've looked for your glasses while wearing them, left your keys in the door overnight, or have driven down the interstate with a cup of coffee on the roof of your car - I could be your patron saint.

I would be the patron saint of Love, especially young love and enduring lovers, more or less the Godly love that is between husband and wife. That is what I would desire to be a patron saint of, helping prolong love. Much like Eros or Cupid in the Greek or Roman Pantheon

Patron Saint of Speed

I do everything last minute in rush

I love the Divine Mercy Devotion and Saint Faustina. I would like to the the patron of something to do with mercy or helping people who suffer.

IJR would be the Patron Saint of Couch Potatoes anf Slackers.

Patron Saint of Baristas... I love coffee!

Fiction and literature, the most divine acts humans can participate in. We are a story telling species. Myth has broader shoulders than fact because it carries a larger burden of truth. For those that abjure sacred literature because it is not factual, shame on you. For those that insist sacred literature must be factual in order to be revered, shame on you. Our stories tell us where we have come from, and help us frame our questions about where we are going. It's only when you look to the literature as definitive answers (whether you think the answers are right OR wrong) that you make missteps.

Technology, or Frustration with Technology -- not because I struggle with it myself, but because it is something I seem to help others with.

"Patron Saint of Frustration with Windows"

I think I'd be the patron saint of struggling writers. I'm an obsessive editor, a wannabe novelist, and a terrible, terrible poet. If I could help anyone else NOT be like me, that'd be great. :)
