Beware: Complaining Is Always Attractive!

LordMyChef “T-G-I-F” Quote, 12 October 2018

“There were no easy consolations.  It even seemed that he pierced their complaints with a truth they might have preferred not to know.  After all, continual complaining is more attractive than facing reality.  But the stranger was not the least bit afraid to break through their defenses and to call them far beyond their own narrowness of mind and heart.”

Henri Nouwen, “With Burning Hearts”, page 47.
