How often can a heart break and survive? Ask Leah, the unbeautiful, unloved, or Jacob, holding his son’s bloodstained coat, or Joseph, friendless in a foreign land. Ask Naomi, trudging to Bethlehem, or Hannah, weeping for her empty arms, or all the mothers of the innocents. A heart, they’ll say, can break a hundred times— A hundred times (and more) for the same grief.
