So no, I’m not too big on religion...and not very fond of politics or economics either...And why should I be?

The intricacy and the inherent beautiful fragility of the human soul is such that it is uniquely damaged and only God knows how to heal it, and it's going to take time.

I grew up fundamentalist, evangelical, Protestant. Those are my roots, and they are good roots. But it means the Pharisees are my people. I grew up with an image of God that was not helpful -- largely the face of my father expanded.
William P. Young
Emotions talked to you before you had words, so listen to them ... they are often more honest than the mind's remarkable ability to self deceive.
William P. Young
Pain has a way of clipping our wings and keeping us from being able to fly... And if left unresolved you can almost forget that you were ever created to fly in the first place.
William P. Young
The 'will to power and independence' has become so ubiquitous that it is now considered normal.
