Suffering

   
"Even suffering is part of the truth of our life. Thus, trying to 

shield the youngest from every difficulty and experience of 
suffering, we risk creating, despite our good intentions, fragile 
persons of little generosity:
The capacity to love, in fact, corresponds to the capacity to suffer, 
and to suffer together.”



 Benedict XVI


I am holding on to those words, Papa.
