'... We are all very anxious to be understood, and it is very hard not to be. But there is one thing much more necessary.' 'What is that, grandmother?' 'To understand other people.'
-from The Princess and the Goblin by George MacDonald
Sometimes when I picture God, He's the grandmother...or Aslan. There is such deep truth in The Princes and the Goblin. One of my all time favorites. What is that line about fear around the third chapter? And "for some people, to be sure of something, is to have it between their teeth." Oh, so much goodness!
