We're good on Saint's name

We chose saints that did something - wrote, helped reform the church, etc. The idea of someone living in abject misery and then dying and becoming a Saint isn't that great to me. Give me Thomas of Aquinas, Julian of Norwich, Hildegarde of Bengin, Thomas Merton, Theresa of Avila, St. Francis & Clare of Assisi before Perpetua & St. Rose of Lima.
