English. Catholic. Conservative. And not at all sorry.
Weep weep, O Walsingham
Weep, weep O Walsingam, Whose dayes are nightes,
Blessings turned to blasphemies, Holy deedes to dispites.
Sinne is where our Ladye sate, Heaven turned is to helle;
Sathan sitte where our Lord did swaye,
Walsingam, oh, farewell!

Stop feeling sorrow for yourself as if God designed the human condition or the unfolding of his providential plan of history to thwart you personally. Quite the contrary.
(3) For the second point, consider St Philip Neri: "Men are often the carpenters of their own crosses."
(4) For the third point, cf. Dorothy's speech at the end of the Wizard of Oz (movie version).
