Exercise of Spiritual Communion?
Does that mean saying the prayer recommended at the time of Communion when one is not able to actually receive it for one reason or another?

Yes, that is correct. Holy Communion is the life of the soul.

And so Spiritual Communion is too, the sustenance our life.

Here is a thread on this priceless matter.

'To you, O Master, who loves all mankind
I hasten on rising from sleep.
By your mercy I go out to do your work
and I make my prayer to you.
Help me at all times and in all things.
Deliver me from every evil thing of this world
and from pursuit by the devil.
Save me and bring me to your eternal kingdom,
For you are my Creator,
You inspire all good thoughts in me.
In you is all my hope and to you I give glory,
now and forever.'

St. Macarius the Wonder-Worker

First Resolution.
letter of Saint Conrad of Parzham


"I resolve in the first place to remain continually in the presence of God and to ask myself frequently if I would do this or that if my confessor or superior were watching me and especially if God and my guardian angel were present"

In memory of Pope John Paul II who died on 2 April 2005
"...Surely it is important for America that the moral truths which make freedom possible should be passed on to each new generation. Every generation of Americans needs to know that freedom consists not in doing what we like, but in having the right to do what we ought. .."

'The pearl is formed in the shell; but the shell, which has received the dew of heaven, closes itself and sinks to the bottom of the sea, where it engenders the precious pearl. Understand me well. The pearl of genuine virtue is engendered in the depths of the sea of suffering and humility. Thence we pass into the immense ocean of uncreated love and allow ourselves to be swallowed up in its waters.'

Some people call him that, but many others who are devout and knowledgeable about the popes would not. When he is compared to other popes who have that title, there's a difference.
