And she looked at me contemptuously ...


"Mr. Nelson, you'll never amount to anything."

And I answered:

"Yes Sister.  Thank you Sister."

    1. Terry,

      Where is the beauty of warmth and softness embodied by woman? She is too stark and stern looking to inspire but well, some folks like that ... I don't.

      I like the image of Mary, our most tender mother. Even when she is stern I know she is soft and lovely. ^^
