Looks certainly are deceiving--it is a good thing we will be judged in the end by our heart. Some of the best people are those that are so negatively judged at the first impression. I like the "gloomy" black and white photograph with the woven pioneer fabric in the background.
Ben, Isn't it so true that often we overlook the underlying lights of happiness that are ever-gleaming when we are so caught up in those days of despair. With as many times as I've been taught this lesson throughout my life, it is interesting that when those days of despair come along, I still have the tendency to overlook the light that is carrying through. Hence, the need for repetition in the gospel!

Hey! I've always wanted to read that book. Did you like it?
ReplyDeleteI think that Hawthorne is a most insightful writer when it comes to deep and complicated emotion. Is it anything like the scarlet letter?
