But at the end, if we are brave enough to love, if we are strong enough to forgive, if we are generous enough to rejoice in another's happiness, and if we are wise enough to know that there is enough love to go around for us all, then we can achieve a fulfillment that no other living creature will ever know, we can reenter paradise.

Our responding to life's unfairness with sympathy... may be the surest proof of all of God's reality.

Why bad things happen to good people

. . .We are here to finish God's labors. . .so that we could be His partners in completing the work of creation.

There are some things we should feel guilty about, but the guilt feelings should attach to the deed, not to the doer.

There seems to be something in the human soul that causes us to think less of ourselves every time we do something wrong... And maybe it is good for us to feel that way. It may make us more sensitive to what we do wrong and move us to repent and grow.

We do ourselves and others a disservice when we make old age something to be feared...The longer we live, the more life we possess.
