第二天,警长到医院去看望玛西,摇着头说,“那座山没有打败你。鲁斯哈根知道,那座山没有打垮她们是因为,在那个晚上,上帝和她在一起,保护着她,指引着她,给她虚弱的身体注入力量。鲁斯,朱迪还有玛西用生命证明了这一点。 爱,唤起内心深处的爱,那是力量的源泉,有了爱,我们就唤醒了内心里的上帝,我们就是自己命运的主宰。 When Ruth Hagan was 78 years old, she visited her daughter Judy and teenage granddaughter Marcy in California. They headed for their cabin, zigzagging forty miles up and down the mountains in their Bronco, from pavement to gravel to a narrow one-lane road of brittle shale and powdery dirt that wound terrifyingly close to cliffs. After dinner Marcy announced the water tank was low and that she would take the Bronco down to the pump and get water. Ruth was nervous about her young granddaughter driving down the narrow dirt road by herself, but Judy reminded her that Marcy had been driving vehicles up there on the ranch roads since she was 12. "Just be careful, Marcy," her mother warned. "They've had a dry spell up here and the cliff side is pretty shaky. Be sure to hug the mountain side." Ruth said a quick prayer as she and Judy watched Marcy from the big window where they could see the road winding down the mountainside. Fifteen minutes later Judy was still watching when suddenly she screamed, "Oh no! God help us! She went over the cliff, Momma! The Bronco and Marcy - they went over! We have to help her! Come on!" |
