Your love is a triumph, Tad. Nothing to be ashamed of. Something to be proud of. It hurts. But -- it's beautiful, it's a light. From the darkness, your love for her does not look like weakness, it looks like a very strong flame.


I believe I will see the bounty of the Lord in the land of the living.
Wait for the Lord with courage.
Be stouthearted, and wait for the Lord.
