For me, writing a short story is much, much harder than writing a novel.
To maintain a joyful family requires much from both the parents and the children. Each member of the family has to become, in a special way, the servant of the others.
The great danger for family life, in the midst of any society whose idols are pleasure, comfort and independence, lies in the fact that people close their hearts and become selfish.
As the family goes, so goes the nation and so goes the whole world in which we live.
