Human beings have an infinite capacity for two things: giving and love. Do you think Mother Teresa ever ran out of love and care to give to the sick and the destitute? At nearly 85 years of age, and with a weak heart, she was still out there giving; traveling and speaking, caring and working as she had been every day since she was a novice. Thats because giving nourishes and replenishes the giver. Taking depletes us and burns us out.

Life is, in fact, a battle. Evil is insolent and strong: beauty <br/>enchanting but rare; goodness very apt to be weak; folly very apt to be <br/>defiant; wickedness to carry the day; imbeciles to be in great places, <br/>peolpe of sense in small, and mankind generally unhappy. But the world as <br/>it stands is no illusion, no phantasm, no evil dream of a night; we wake <br/>up to it again for ever and ever; we can neither forget it nor deny it <br/>nor dispense with it.

My feelings for you shame me into silence. The truth of this and your name will never be revealed. It is you who has made me realize the failure of my life. The thought of you fills me with longing and at the same time, a burning humiliation that produces scar tissue and dead brain cells. Your existence mocks me and I am unable to confront this. You have no idea of any of this. None of this is your fault. It is completely with me. It is you who makes me see what I really am. I am weak and out of touch with myself.
