Spirituality: Etty Hillesum, An Interrupted Life: The Diaries, 1941-1943; and Letters from Westerbork

What matters is not to allow my whole life to be dominated by what is going on inside me. That has to be kept subordinate one way or another. What I mean is: one must not let oneself be completely disabled by just one thing, however bad; don’t let it impede the great stream of life that flows through you. I have the feeling of something secret deep inside me that no one knows about.
