“Who am I to claim such boundless sorrow? This heartache, acute and true as it may be, is slight compared to all of this world. Five miscarriages, two stillborn, three live births, and Mrs. Connor is one of our fortunate. She is not disemboweled in the snow. Her hands have committed no atrocities. She believes in God. It is remarkable how we go on. All that we come to know and witness and endure, yet our hearts keep beating, our faith persists.” — Eowyn Ivey
Who am I to claim such boundless sorrow? This heartache, acute and true as it may be, is slight compared to all of this world.

It is remarkable how we go on. All that we come to know and witness and endure, yet our hearts keep beating, our faith persists.
