I was hoping you’d share your thoughts regarding the direction Leigh takes the Mary character at the film’s end, but of course that would be a spoiler. Most of us, I would think, have at least one Mary in our lives. It’s always challenging (at least for me) to discern when to respond graciously and when to pursue something a little more confrontational. And in real life the one confronted rarely moves toward self-awareness the way characters often do in film and literature.
Lately when pondering when & if to confront, I find myself influenced by the song “Chalk” by Buddy & Julie Miller:
All I did was help you tell a lie
It keeps on raining and I don’t know why
All our words are written down in chalk
Out in the rain, on the sidewalk
If all our heartaches were in a stack
They’d go all the way up to heaven and back
We don’t know all the trouble we’re in
We don’t know how to get home again
Jesus come and save us from our sin
Excellent article above. May be you need more time to share all the knowledge that you have.
So, thanks for share this information with us, I always come across this amazing post.
