"I’m barely two chapters in and I’m pretty hesitant… the 4th sentence of the book says word for word that men “are the less complicated of the two genders”. Yikes. She also compared herself to Sacagawea 😅" — Mar 29, 2026 04:10PM

“God has not been trying an experiment on my faith or love in order to find out their quality. He knew it already. It was I who didn't. In this trial He makes us occupy the dock, the witness box, and the bench all at once. He always knew that my temple was a house of cards. His only way of making me realize the fact was to knock it down.”
― C.S. Lewis, A Grief Observed
