to have Grace;
you have to have Hope.
to have Hope;
you have to have Charity.
to have all of this and more;
you must have and share love
in the house of
Hope, Grace, and Charity.
to eat away the very soul you have;
you must give all your heart to

Charity.
and to hold that heart,
you must carry that of which in a purse made of love,
it is not carried by all.
no the purse of love
that holds this heart;
belongs to Grace.
and so to waste away with no love,
to forget that heart;
is to lose everything, and nothing
in the House of Hope.

How can there be a purse of love? How can you eat away your soul?

You write only the most beautiful things and nothing less! Thank you for caring so much about us! We love our Home! Her name is Kataria! I hope other people can understand this though.
