There may be a time in life when one is tired of everything and feels as if all one does is wrong, and there maybe some truth in it- do you think this is a feeling one must try to forget and to banish, or is it 'the longing for God,' which one must not fear, but cherish to see if it may bring us some good Is it 'the longing for God' which leads us to make a choice which we never regret Let us keep courage and try to be patient and gentle. And not mind being eccentric, and make distinction between good and evil.
