Often God has to shut a door in our face so that He can subsequently open the door through which He wants us to go.

In rejecting secrecy I had also rejected the road to cynicism.

So once I shut down my privilege of disliking anyone I choose and holding myself aloof if I could manage it greater understanding growing compassion came to me.
