Their very voices and faces are different from ours: stronger, quieter, happier, more radiant. They begin where most leave off. They do not draw attention to themselves. You tend to think you are being kind to them when really they are being kind to you. They love you more than other men do, but they need you less. (We must get over wanting to be needed: in some goo dish people, specially women, that is the hardest of all temptations to resist). They will usually seem to have a lot of time: you will wonder where it came from. --- CS Lewis describing The New Man, the man living in Christ. I have been blessed to know some of these lovely creatures.
