Sorrow . . . is this very thread, spun of tears and confusion,
that God requires for binding severed relationships. Why?
Because sorrow evidences love.
Only someone who has been arrested by love can be gutted
by grief. The ache of loss and the weigh of having wronged
are the most intolerable to the person whole-heartedly given
to another. Sorrow felt deeply communicates, undeniably,
"I care."
