"Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow. It empties today of its strength."This quote comes from a righteous human being who helped Jews escape from the Netherlands during WWII, then wrote a book, The Hiding Place, about it. I wish more of us could be like her. I wish all of us never had reason to experience what she and her family did.
