When A Thousand Splendid Suns said like compass needle that points north, a man’s accusing finger always finds a woman; and when it said, a man's heart is a wretched, wretched thing. It isn't like a mother's womb. It won't bleed. It won't stretch to make room for you; and when it said, I will follow you to the ends of the world; when it said it always falls on the sober to pay for the sins of the drunk; when it said And I wrote you. Volumes. Volumes; and when it said but the game involves only male names. Because, if it's a girl, Laila has already named her; when it said One last time, Mariam did as she was told; and when it-

Here was Arthur left to me at last; and rousing from my despondent apathy, I exerted all my powers to eradicate the weeds that had been fostered in his infant mind, and sow again the good seed they had rendered unproductive. Thank heaven, it is not a barren or a stony soil; if weeds spring fast there, so do better plants.

Jan 3 is the Feast of St Geneviève. This full-page miniature depicting Saint Geneviève on a leaf pulled from a book of hours. A contemporary of Clovis and Attila, and later the patron saint of Paris, Geneviève († 512 CE) is painted holding a large lit candle, one of her attributes. A demon, with a breath, extinguishes the flame that is immediately rekindled. According to her legend, Geneviève, with her companions, visit at night the construction site of the Basilica of Saint-Denis that she has built when the wind extinguishes the candle that lights the path of the small group. Geneviève then takes in her hand the candle that miraculously lights up and its flame will withstand all the storms. This isolated fragment comes from a manuscript made around 1510 in Tours by Maître Claude de France. Bibliothèque de l'École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts, Paris, Mn. Mas 95
[Robert Scott Horton]

Howdy: “take this…little man OUT of my store”
He hands Wally over like he’s a sack of potatoes. Holding him by the back of his shirt. Wally is far more lethargic than normal, his hair is a mess, he’s groaning, and there is a visible lump in his stomach.
Barnaby: “what happened!?”
Barnaby scoops Wally up in his arms with a worried expression.
Howdy: “he wanted apples!….so I gave him….apples”
Howdy’s tone turns rather cold. He glares at Wally as he says this. Howdy then clears his throat and pulls out a wonderful red delicious apple. He thrusts it towards Wally. Wally’s eyes widen and he makes a fearful whine before burying his face in Barnaby’s chest.
Howdy: “HAHAHAHAHAH YES!!! IT’S FINALY OVER!!! IT WORKS!!”
Howdy breaks down into manic laughter at this. Barnaby clutches Wally to his chest and starts backing away.
Barnaby: “ooook. It’s time for us to go and it’s time for you to take a break Howdy”

The purpose of life, as far as I can tell, is to find a mode of being that’s so meaningful that the fact that life is suffering is no longer relevant.

Every day is a testament to the second chances bestowed upon me, allowing me to resume what was once delayed. Amidst it all, I perceive the unyielding love of God, ever-present, never forsaking me in times of adversity 🙏
