Save
I no longer know what the Lord wants of us… Even what we’re doing here seems pointless to me! What’s the use of the books I’ve brought with me? All those bookcases in the house? The things we learn, the things we discuss? Not so long ago, I was convinced that cultivating our minds would help us change the course of this world. I told myself, ‘We women should change. Then we might be able to curb the folly of men.’ I don’t believe that now. As soon as I leave Magdala, as soon as I spend a day in the streets of Tarichea, I get the feeling we’re becoming more and more learned and more and more useless.
