About This Quote
Having grown up in a broken home, having grown up with a broken family, I felt the pain of the brokenness in the world. To me, there was no greater tragedy than growing up without a place to call home and feeling abandoned and unloved. The worst part of it all was that we were letting our children live in broken homes because we were too busy trying to fix our own mistakes.
