Spirituality Imperfection

Who is the Catholic nun who wrote a book about humanism and spirituality?
I cannot remember the title of the book either but it was a very skinny book and I think it was written in the 1960s. I think it was based on humanism philosophy and I remember in the book she talked about embracing our weaknesses, mistakes, and imperfections. It was a skinny book. It was an easy read and quite inspirational. I believe it also talked about embracing our negative experiences too because we learn from them. It talked about living gratefully too. It was definitely a nun who wrote the book but you didn’t know that until you read the “about the author” section of the book. Thanks in advance.
Obviously, it was mother Teresa, the greatest nun there was.
Bacon be with you.
