In the past weeks I have seen some great friends after a long time and a dear family. Meeting people, getting to know people, living and loving, saying good-byes, re-connecting… that’s life! I just finished reading an amzing book called ‘The Shack’ which brought tears of joy into my eyes for many reasons. It also put words on something that my heart has been experiencing in these past weeks.
‘You kiss your family and friends good-bye and you put mile between you, but at the same time you carry them with you in your heart, your mind, your stomach, because you do not just live in a world but a world lives in you.’ –Frederick Buechner, Telling the Truth (from the Shack.)
’Most birds were created to fly. Being grounded for them is a limitation within their ability to fly, not the other way around. You, on the other hand, were created to be loved. So for you to live as if you were unloved is a limitation, not the other way around.’ William P. Young, The Shack
