Brothers, love is a teacher, but a hard one to obtain: learning to love is hard and we pay dearly for it. It takes hard work and a long apprenticeship, for it is not just for a moment that we must learn to love, but forever.
(Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Brothers Karamazov)
I had given up hope for my goddaughter. This...mercy...story tells me again to never sell the love and mercy of God short...to stop putting Him in a box in the love department....Again, Pentimento, you have added mercy to my tears.
