Status Updates From Summa Domestica: Order and ...

Can I just say... I am actively considering dropping $50+ on this three-book series to own so... big fan

"Everyone is in a state of high anxiety, simply because people can't find a place in life to settle and be at peace when equality is their main criterion. I propose that there are not stereotypes... but givens, real ones. Just as geometry can't proceed without givens, life without givens will be endlessly questioned rather than lived" (21).
I am so excited for this book!

“That is what a family is—a safe haven to be yourself, only better, and to be loved for who you are, not for what you can contribute. Paradoxically, this quality of the family makes the person a better contributor to the outside world” (313)!

Today's parents miss the most rewarding and fulfilling aspect of the family, which is the actual, sometimes mundane, sometimes all too exciting, life together of those entrusted to your care. Love strives to build something lasting together, each person overcoming his selfishness and unbridled needs…for the sake of the others, by means of the work done together and the times of real rest…that restores the soul.
