my heroes...

'no amount of falls will really undo us if we keep on picking ourselves up each time. we shall of course be very muddy & tattered children by the time we reach home. but the baths are all ready, the towels put out, & the clean clothes in the airing cupboard. the only fatal thing is to lose one's temper & give it up. it is when we notice the dirt that God is most present in us: it is the very sign of his presence.' ~c.s.lewis
