If I've learned...
If I’ve learned anything from video games, it is that when you meet enemies, it means that you’re going in the right direction.
Dragons
Once They All Believed In Dragons
Once they all believed in dragons
When the world was fresh and young,
We were woven into legends,
Tales were told and songs were sung,
We were treated with obeisance,
We were honored, we were feared,
Then one day they stopped believing--
On that day, we disappeared.
Now they say our time is over,
Now they say we've lived our last,
Now we're treated with derision
Where once we ruled unsurpassed.
We must make them all remember,
In some way we must reveal
That our spirit lives forever--
We are dragons! We are real!

Mother Teresa
Without out suffering, our work would just be social work, very good and
helpful, but it would not be the work of Jesus Christ, not part of the
Redemption. All the desolation of the poor people, not only their
material poverty, but their spiritual destitution, must be redeemed. And
we must share it, for only by being one with them can we redeem them by
bringing God into their lives and bringing them to God.

Saint Catherine of Sienna
"Speak the truth with a thousand voices – it is silence that kills the world.”
