“There is no living thing on God’s Earth that doesn’t come to know pain sometime.”
“But to be alive in the world, every day, as we are given more and more and more, as the nature of ‘what we can handle’ changes and our methods for how we handle it change, too, that’s something of a miracle.”
Speechless...this book will be one of my favorites for a long time. Profound look at religion and losing it, depression and living along side of it, and addiction and asking questions that may never be answered.
