“The factory of love encompasses all, but on some days, does it seem to be one of suffocation, squeezing its target too tightly? And on other days not tight enough? Or maybe that is the breath of a living love knowing when to protect, when to release, and when to protect again. For we are the products of an active love - the Father the creator, the Son the perfecter, the Spirit the supervisor - but just like in a factory, to deny the process is to ultimately create a defect of oneself.” DoeEnoughSeemsSpiritFatherProcessKnowingSonProductsProtectBreathsOneselfCreatorDenyActiveReleaseTargetFactoriesDefectsSqueezingSupervisors Book:Killosophy Source: Killosophy
“Given the clientele, the restaurants on Capri might resemble those fancy Northern Italian places on the East Side of Manhattan where the captain has taken bilingual sneering lessons from the maitre d' at the French joint down the street and the waiter, whose father was born in Palermo, would deny under torture that tomato sauce has ever touched his lips.” MightFatherGivenSidesBornTakenStreetsFoodLessonsCookingLipsDenyEastTortureFancyRestaurantsTouchedCulinaryItalianCaptainsJointsManhattanSauceTomatoesWaiterEast SideCapri Book:Third Helpings Source: Third Helpings
“in coming to terms with the newly dead, I seem to have agitated the spirits of the long dead. They were stirring uneasily in their graves, demanding to be mourned as I had not mourned them when they were buried. I was plunged into retroactive grief for my father, and could no longer deny, though I still tried, the loss I'd suffered at the death of my mother. ... Was it possible ... that one could mourn over losses that had occurred more than half a century earlier?” LongStillsSeemsSpiritMotherFatherTermLossGriefHalfCenturyDenyGravesBuriedMournStirringHalf A Century Author:Eileen Simpson
