seeing



Your beliefs will be the light by which you see, but they will not be what you see and they will not be a substitute for seeing. 

 -Flannery O'Connor

That is a very thought-provoking quote...

It's a very helpful way of expressing the truth that knowing about Someone is not the same as knowing them... but I think it says even more.

Thank you!

Flannery is a particular taste, my husband's, but she CAN write a sentence. Some of her writing scares me, but this quote is lovely.
