Gratefulness

Dale Biron
October 2018 (Vol. XXXI, No. 9)
Evolutionarily, we're always concerned with what's not right. That's what makes gratefulness delightfully subversive.

Quote of the Day

She is Divine Wisdom. She watches over all people and all things in heaven and on earth, being of such radiance and brightness that, for the measureless splendor that shines in Her, you cannot gaze on Her face or on the garments She wears....She is like the Sun, which none can contemplate in its blazing face or in the glorious garment of its rays. For She is with all and in all, and of beauty so great in Her mystery that no one could know how sweetly She bears with people, and with what unfathomable mercy She spares them.
~ Hildegard of Bingen
