Louise Erdrich Quotes

What Is The Question We Spend Our Entire Lives Asking? Our Question Is This: Are We Loved? I Don't Mean By One Another. Are We Loved By The One Who Made Us? Constantly, We Look For Evidence. In The Gifts We Are Given - Children, Good Weather, Money, A Happy Marriage Perhaps - We Find Assurance. In Contrast, Our Pains, Illnesses, The Deaths Of Those We Love, Our Poverty, Our Innocent Misfortunes - Those We Take As Signs That God Has Somehow Turned Away. But, My Friends, What Exactly Is Love Here? How To Define It? Does God's Love Have Anything At All To Do With The Lack Or Plethora Of Good Fortune At Work In Our Lives? Or Is God's Love, Perhaps, Something Very Different From What We Think We Know?
