i live in calm looking to the end

This time I promise to finish the classic version of Jane Eyre

It is writing like this that makes me feel so good…

“Life appears to me too short to be spent in nursing animosity, or registering wrongs. We are, and must be, one and all, burdened with faults in this world : but time will come soon when, I trust, we shall out them off in putting off our corruptible bodies ; when debasement and sin will fall from us with this cumbrous frame of flesh , and only the spark of spirit will remain- the impalpable principle of life and thought, pure as when it left the Creator to inspire the creature ; whence it came it will return , perhaps to pass through gradations of glory, from pale human soul to brighten to the seraph!......Besides with this creed I can so clearly distinguish between the criminal and his crime , I can so sincerely forgive the first while I abhor the last; with this creed, revenge never worries my heart, degradation never too deeply disgusts me, injustice never crushes me too low: I live in clam looking to the end.”


I can’t wait for my family to be complete and my house to full again…
