How many thousands have been carried to heaven instrumentally upon the wings of these tracts, none can tell

If I reveal myself without worrying about how others will respond, then some will care, though others may not. But who can love me, if no one knows me? I must risk it, or live alone. It is enough that I must die alone. I am determined to let down my walls, whatever the risks, if it means that I may have whatever is there for me.

George MullerI will not be alone if I am my true self. Only by trading my true self for the companionship of another have I ever made myself alone.

As conquered by the last cold air When Winter whistles in the wind Alone upon a branch that's bare A trembling leaf is left behind.
