I have a strange relationship with time. I'm not aware of it passing.
It's a source of great sadness to me that my father died without having seen...
I feel an intense intimacy with those who have this loathing interest in me....
It is a great consolation for me to remember that the Lord to whom I had drawn near in humble and child-like faith has suffered and died for me and that He will look on me in love and compassion.
