SHEER SUFFERING  

IS NEVER  ENOUGH

Quote for Today

"I do not believe that sheer suffering teaches.  If  suffering alone taught, all the world would be wise, since everyone suffers.  To suffering must be added mourning, understanding, patience, love, openness and the willingness to remain vulnerable."

Anne Morrow Lindbergh [1906-2001], Time, February 5,  1973
