but by making the darkness conscious.

more than our own, and I believe that sort of trust is excessive.

but I don't blindly follow his suggestions
without checking other sources also.
He was trained to prescribe a pill for everything,
and does it with the best of intentions,
but I often choose to trust God's quiet voice inside me
rather than my doctor's medical advice.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

To know yet to think that one does not know is best;

the one I laugh with, live for, dream with, love.
