Two thirds of this week's reading seemed like the same thing that she has said in the prior pages. She appears to me to be very down on herself. She seems to feel that she isn't doing enough for others or for the conversion of her husband. Her health seems to be pulling her spirit down also. By the end of this week's reading, she seemed to have picked herself up. She is a beautifully spiritual woman in my eyes.
On page 100 she states that it is a source of pain and difficult sacrifice to have to divide one's life so much and this sometimes leads to a feeling in others that not enough is being done for them. I understand this feeling within my own family. The more I and my husband give to our children, the more they expect. And then they blame us when their lives are all messed up. She was a stronger woman than I will ever be.
RE: questions-- Do I speak too much about myself? I suppose I do; but this book talks right to me for a lot of things. Silence is something I may never accomplish. I try and try............
