Having discovered who we are and having opened ourselves to life and having learned to be comfortable with it, we know that God is working in us.

There is no veil of ease about the extraordinary effort required to be free. Breaking from conformity and pursuing our own dreams will bring some discord upon us. There will be personal struggle and sacrifice, fear and misfortune, as we try to exert ourselves in the world once more.
