"I've been reading each story for it's appropriate season.
In spring, I read the Shawshank Redemption. I'd give it a 5/5. It was a master class in character writing, and I loved the hopeful message at the end.
For summer, I read Apt Pupil. The writing was 5/5, but the story was so disturbing I'd give it a 2.5/5. I love King's writing, but this story was too much for me. I'm so glad to be done with it." — Aug 01, 2026 10:33PM

“My feelings are not God. God is God. My feelings do not define truth. God’s word defines truth. My feelings are echoes and responses to what my mind perceives. And sometimes - many times - my feelings are out of sync with the truth. When that happens - and it happens every day in some measure - I try not to bend the truth to justify my imperfect feelings, but rather, I plead with God: Purify my perceptions of your truth and transform my feelings so that they are in sync with the truth.”

“Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional. Say you’re running and you think, ‘Man, this hurts, I can’t take it anymore. The ‘hurt’ part is an unavoidable reality, but whether or not you can stand anymore is up to the runner himself.”
