Book cover for 40 Days of Decrease: A Different Kind of Hunger. A Different Kind of Fast.
To humble us, to test us, to know what is in our hearts . . . such is the sifting power of helplessness. In our daily lives, we may prefer self-reliance. But perhaps utter dependence is the truer friend of our souls.

“My books promised me that life wasn’t just made up of workday tasks and prosaic things. The world is bigger and more colorful and more important than that.”
Laura Amy Schlitz

André Brink
“My library was -- all libraries are -- a place of ultimate refuge, a wild and sacred space where meanings are manageable precisely because they aren't binding; and where illusion is comfortingly real.”
André Brink

“As far as I can tell, the uncertain part is every second we’re alive, until the last.”
Mary Laura Philpott, Bomb Shelter: Love, Time, and Other Explosives

Each morning comes along and you assume it will be similar enough to the previous
“Each morning comes along and you assume it will be similar enough to the previous one—that you will be safe, that your family will be alive, that you will be together, that life will remain mostly as it was. Then a moment arrives and everything changes.”
Anthony Doerr, Cloud Cuckoo Land

“1. You must let the pain visit.
2. You must allow it teach you
3. You must not allow it overstay.

(Three routes to healing)”
Ijeoma Umebinyuo, Questions for Ada
