Reason, devoid of the purifying power of faith, can never free itself from distortions and rationalizations.”

Because I know that giving is the way we can feel abundant. Giving is the way that we fill ourselves up.... For me the way to fill up is through service and sharing and getting myself to give more than I feel comfortable giving.”
