About Amelia


I'm an editrix, a writer, a poet, a photographer, and a wielder of butter. I love Jesus because He loved me first.

Snapshots
“There is no safe investment. To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket—safe, dark, motionless, airless—it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. The alternative to tragedy, or at least to the risk of tragedy, is damnation. The only place outside of heaven where you can be perfectly safe from all the dangers and perturbations of love is hell.” — C.S.Lewis —- I know we all feel various anxieties at various times. Mine (well, one of mine) is losing people (or wee woolly black dogs) I love — my grandparents, my parents, my friends ... I know it will happen. I know that loss and death are part of this phase of life we live in right now. I know that one day every sad thing will come untrue. But the threat of loss lingers all the same (I’ve always felt an affinity for Walter Blythe, who feared the thought of pain more than he ever felt fear in the midst of pain). I appreciate C.S. Lewis’ reminder that the vulnerability of love is actually a good thing, and that we cannot truly live if we are unwilling to love, too.
