"The New Women! I could barely recognize them as being of the same sex as myselfâ€¦They are satiated by everything, hungry for nothing. They are what I wanted to be; they are what I worked for them to be: and now I see them, I hate them."

-- Fay Weldon

We need that regular, focused quiet time, but we also need to take our awareness of and commitment to God into our more numerous "noisy times".”
