Deepest Sympathy



Interesting that what I had already chosen for today was a sympathy card, in light of what has happened at Virgina Tech today. I hope we will all take a moment to think about and pray for those who are hurting there today.
As for the card, it is a pocket card. The outside is made with the Roses in Winter set. Unfortunately we all need sympathy cards from time to time, and I think the Roses in Winter set makes such elegant cards for that. The inside is a quote I found and printed onto cardstock. It reads:
THERE IS A SACREDNESS IN TEARS.
THEY ARE NOT THE MARK OF WEAKNESS,
BUT OF POWER.
THEY SPEAK MORE ELOQUENTLY
THAN 10,000 TONGUES.
THEY ARE THE MESSENGERS OF OVERWHELMING GRIEF,
OF DEEP CONTRITION,
AND OF UNSPEAKABLE LOVE.
-WASHINGTON IRVING
