Caroline RheaWith "Margaret," I remember clearly it was, you know because I did remember it clearly. I was young.

The more we maintain an awareness of God's unchanging love, the safer and more at home we will feel in the world.

Memories are what you no longer want to remember.

Everything I wanted to do.
