Trudy narrates: He spoke of love and forgiveness, but these things are not only foreign to me, but I've rejected or abused them every time they've been offered to me.
[[Trudy looks at a closed Bible Akhilesh gave her]]

Trudy narrates: I have no hope in myself; I can't see how anyone could hold such hope for me. My life is worthless. How could even a God take interest in my troubles?
[[Trudy tosses aside the Bible]]

Trudy narrates: By chance, the book lands open, and my eyes catch a phrase...
Bible text from Psalm 103:8-10 (New International Version):
people of Israel:
8 The LORD is compassionat[e]
and gracious, slow to
anger, abounding in love.
9 He will not always accuse,
nor will he harbor his
anger forever;
[1]0 He does not treat us as
our sins deserve or repay
us according to our
iniquities.
[11] For as high as the heavens

Trudy narrates: Well... it's a long trip. I needed reading material anyway.
