You wrote me a beautiful letter, I wonder if you meant it to be as beautiful as it was. I think you did; for somehow I know that your feeling for me, however slight it is, is of the nature of love...

This is not meekness, be assured; I do not come naturally by meekness; know that it is a proud surrender to You. -:-Edna St. Vincent Millay
