Love is Eternal

“Politics and law pass, as the supremacy of the Roman Empire and her eloquently complex legal system passed. If Christ’s message had been about overthrowing or changing it, He would be as historically insignificant as a thousand of his contemporary Jewish radicals. Love, however, is eternal.”

Sophia Nugent-Siegal
St Mark’s Review, No. 217, Aug 2011: 112-115.

“Love, however, is eternal.”

True, darling. Loving you always, beautiful child.
