Tim (and his parents because they love him) are walking a path that none of us would choose, with grace that only God could give them. My heart aches for all of them.

Re: Art and the Mind’s Eye, a quote from John Ruskin that has been on my bulletin board for years –
“The entire object of true education is to make people not merely to do the right things, but to enjoy them; not merely industrious, but to love industry; not merely learned, but to love knowledge; not merely pure, but to love purity; not merely just, but to hunger and thirst after justice.” John Ruskin
Awesome quote, Virginia! I’m saving that one. Thanks for alerting me to the problem with my links. I’ve corrected them. 🙂
