| The world breaks everyone, and afterward, some are strong at the broken places. Ernest Hemingway We gain strength, and courage, and confidence by each experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face... we must do that which we think we cannot. Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars. Nothing is so strong as gentleness, nothing so gentle as real strength.

| I'm reading a book called "Follow the River", a novel based on "the true ordeal of Mary Ingles". In 1755, some folks in a very small settlement on the west side of the Blue Ridge mountains--truly wilderness, then--were taken by Indians. The story is of her escape and remarkable, almost unbelievable, journey back to her home. All of the quotes for today really are demonstrated in this book. The strength of the human spirit is unquenchable! |
