		<description><![CDATA[Love strengthens and transforms. It also frightens.

Experiencing love, true unadulterated and unconditional love, freely given soothes us in places long hardened over time by insults and wounds inflicted in the flesh and to our character and emotions.

Love and acceptance despite and because of who we are, faults, shortcomings, warts and all exhumes not only our previous injuries, but lifts our vulnerabilities to the surface.

The frightened girls and boys that our hard exteriors have hidden over the years are summoned forth.

We descend to our knees in the face of an eternal truth.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA["Any event that seems to the given writer startling, curious, or interest-laden can form the climax of a possible story.”

--John Gardner in The Art of Fiction

Climax is that place in the story or novel where the protagonist, the main character, reveals in action, that she or he has integrated knowledge gained through the experience of the journey.

Through thought, word, and deed, the central character shows she or he has been changed, transformed. It follows crisis.]]></description>
