My son called me "Mother Make Right," and I didn’t. I wasn’t there and I couldn’t and the world was simply bigger than I could carry on my shoulders. I was not enough. He believed in me and I betrayed him. There must be a door between the real world and the godly one, and if there is it must be found in desperation and love. It is known to all of us, that feeling of immanence: the certainty that there is a missing limb, invisible and ineluctable, that answers the need of the soul. The heart can lift mountains and God answers prayers. I failed because I could not prise my chest wide enough to make miracles.
