These are some great quotes from a man who knows his stuff to remember when life gives you one of those "down days". Thought I would share (because we all have down days!)
"Dispair is the ultimate development of a pride so great and so stiff-necked that it selects the absolute misery of damnation rather than accept happiness from the hands of God and therby acknowledge that He is above us and that we are not capable of fulfilling our destiny by ourselves."
"If we were incapable of humility we would be incapable of joy, because humility alone can destroy the self-centeredness that makes joy possible."
"But true faith must be able to go on even when everything else is taken away from us."

Hey Amelia,
I'm finally leaving a comment on here! Nice Merton quotes. Katmai's doing fine, he recognized me and was really excited. He went for a couple little swims while we were there. I'll talk to you later, take care.
Jacob
