WHY I LOVE TO READ!

“But for all that, Holly Springs was precisely where he belonged right now. He’d been journeying for seventy years to this place, this moment, this pew. It was God’s plan.

Enough, then. He’d come in to pray, seeking peace from the only one who could hear his heart and not despise him for it, the only one who could see him as a worm, yes, but love him still, because he’d been so fashioned that the hard chrysalis would soon shatter and the wings unfold, the he would ascend again and soar.” Home to Holly Springs, by Jan Karon, p. 200

I'm reading (almost finished) Home to Holly Springs; and I'm loving it. I've read all of the Mitford novels by Jan Karon.
