Welcome...

Forgiveness doesn't erase what happened. It doesn't rewrite your story or pretend the pain was imaginary. What it does is far more profound. It takes away the past's power to keep wounding you, day after day, in the tender spaces of your heart.

I spent the long weekend watching crowds surge through shopping centres, arms loaded with bags, faces tight with urgency. So much rushing, so much buying, so much chasing. It struck me how desperately we pursue things that won't last. There has to be something more.
