Amen to this post. It reminds me of the letter Flannery O’Connor wrote to Cecil Watkins—“To expect too much is to have a sentimental view of life and this is a softness that ends in

bitterness. Charity is hard and endures; I don't want to discourage you from reading St.Thomas

but don't read him with the notion that he is going to clear anything up for you.That is done by

study but more by prayer.”
