“I wish it need not have happened in my time,” said Frodo.

“Don’t strain to make things perfect. Life in the present order will never be perfect, so don’t stretch to put everything right, to order all persons and things once and for all.

We have to learn to live with the mess.” This Blessed Mess – Patricia Livingston.
