Our vulnerable dependence on the goodness of others
“I felt gratitude pouring out of my heart, like light out of a bright window, reaching toward all who had offered their kindness and help. ‘This is what it feels like to be whole-hearted,’ I told myself. The whole-heartedness issued not only from gratitude, but also from an awareness of my vulnerable dependence on the goodness of God and other people. I felt blessedly connected with everyone and everything.”
— Marcelle Martin, 2014
