Photo by Daniel Stiel on Unsplash We are on this chessboard Earth, we attempt to make our moves, but at times it seems as if the great hand of a disinterested giant haphazardly sends us on a trajectory of stumbling. What do we do? We step back and seek within ourselves what is needed to be done and serve the best we can. Patti Smith (in Bread of angels )

Her face imparts hope and despair.

Mary Magdalene by Delacroix In the Delacroix museum in Paris there hangs the artist's rendering of Mary Magdalene. Nothing is as rich as the simplicity of the human face, intrepid, unadorned, more awash with light than loss. With head cocked, she gazes up to her crucified master. Her face imparts hope and despair. The master has touched her forehead, she sees as he sees, humankind will run amok a thousand times in his name. Patti Smith (in Bread of Angels )
