She [the Virgin Mary] was normal. She had already had other children. The Bible tells us that Jesus had two brothers. Virginity, as it relates to Jesus, is based on a different thing: Mary initiated a new generation of grace. A new era began.

It's always necessary to know when a stage of one's life has ended. If you stubbornly cling to it after the need has passed, you lose the joy and meaning of the rest. And you risk being shaken to your senses by God.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Love is beyond time or rather love is both time and space but all focused on one single constantly evolving point-the Aleph.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Whatever I did, I did with love and I did with honesty.
Paulo Coelho
