“Thinking about adults putting on a happy face for children, or worse, being unable to put on the happy face, is devastating. That we maintain this dishonesty with them, that we must. I have a longing to protect the kids from coming into some consciousness of the fact that taking care of them is difficult. I always imagined that keeping that fact from them was an essential part of good mothering.”

“On Earth, her son would have been a tragedy, but here in the forest, protected by the watchful gaze of a hundred fathers, all the children were safe, damaged or whole, quick or halt. No one was discarded as too broken or too odd. Imperfection was permitted in Trucha Sai, the only place on Rakhat where this was so. The Runa asked nothing of Isaac. They did not judge him and find him wanting.”

“A Word from the Lord is precious. His guidance throughout life is worth more than all the gold, diamonds, and temporal treasures in the world. Earthly riches are fleeting, and only bring segments of happiness. They don't truly fulfill the heart. Only God can give someone true fulfillment. The technological sphere will crash one day, and all its distracting gimmicks will fade into nothing. Sign out from all that nonsense. Tune in to what's important, and what's truly valuable. Listen, and you'll hear the Voice of God speak to you. Be attentive to the spiritual aspects of life, and be filled with eternal joy as you journey the path of light.”
