On cultivating patience: conversations with my son This moved me to tears. <3 "You are loved. That’s what I want you to remember in your heart. Hold it there with both hands. For just as you need to know that I dream of you, I need you to remember how much you are loved. Our love is a secure base upon which you receive the tools to craft a healthy and meaningful life. Love is a constant source, a ballast of calming strength in busy and difficult seas. Whether you refer to love as a divine force, a living God, or simply the compassion of an open heart, may love give you patience. When I look into my heart, I’m dreaming of you there."
