    C.S. Lewis
    “To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.”
    C.S. Lewis, The Four Loves

  • #7
    Friendship ... is born at the moment when one man says to another What! You

    Michael R. French
    “A secret that has been buried too long, eating a hole in me, worms its way to the surface, like a swimmer who can't hold his breath any longer.”
    Michael R French, Once Upon a Lie

  • #11
    Michael R. French

    Michael R French, Once Upon a Lie

  • #13
    Michael R. French

    Michael R French, Why Men Fall Out of Love: What Every Woman Needs to Understand

  • #17
    Michael R. French
    “A lot of men not only fear emotional pain, they are afraid to be transparent and vulnerable. To let an outsider even glimpse their confusion or suffering is a taboo that starts in adolescence and becomes more entrenched with adulthood.”
    Michael R French, Why Men Fall Out of Love: What Every Woman Needs to Understand

    Linda Durham

    Linda  Durham

    Linda Durham, Still Moving: a memoir

  • #20
    Linda  Durham
    “Spiritual and psychological growth is not like an architectural structure that builds on a foundation. Sometimes we erect walls where they shouldn’t be or needn’t be when they bear no load. And, sometimes, the most forward-thinking course is to tear them down, leaving us nowhere to hide.”
    Linda Durham, Still Moving: a memoir

  • #21
    Linda  Durham

    Linda Durham, Still Moving: a memoir

  • #25
    Linda  Durham
    “It was a moment of awe. I considered the powerful appearance of the two ravens an immediate and true message from God. The magical encounter settled in my cells.

    Linda Durham, Still Moving: a memoir

  • #26
    Linda  Durham
