Thanks Lauranne for the Reminder

You know how sometimes a thought will get stuck in your head... Roll around? And you take a few deep breaths in trying to figure out what exactly it meant? Lauranne brought one up about a week and a half ago... Well, I guess I'm just fighting to be open to love. Check it:

“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket- safe, dark, motionless, airless--it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable.” C.S. Lewis
