We all have love stories that go terribly wrong; we all have horribly broken hearts. and somehow we endure. we're not destroyed by it. we endure and go on to do interesting things and have worthy lives, even though we carry our heartbreaks with us. that's a kind of personal story of mine that i don't think i would tell in memoir but i do think i can tell in fiction.

One of the remarkable qualities of the story is that it creates space. we can dwell in a story, walk around, find our own place. the story confronts but does not oppress; the story inspires but does not manipulate. the story invites us to an encounter, a dialogue, a mutual sharing. as long as we have stories to tell to each other there is hope. as long as we can remind each other of the lives of men and women in whom the love of god becomes manifest, there is reason to move forward to new land in which new stories are hidden.
