Some of my readers know that my family and I have experienced an enormous personal tragedy. It is too hard to write about and may always be. I can only say that the quote by Aeschylus (quoted in a time of national crisis by Bobby Kennedy) applies to my personal life and the life of my family right now:
He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain, which cannot forget, falls drop by drop upon the heart, until, in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom through the awful grace of God.
