Medieval Monday: Week 10

11/23/2020

Welcome to Week 10 of Medieval Monday! The holidays are upon us, rousing all sorts of activity and emotion, even – maybe especially -- in this year of worry and change. For a quick and easy escape to another time and place, check out at the Medieval Romance Lovers FB page. We can also be found on Twitter, #MedMonFall20. Why not take a break and relax with a little medieval romance? In this week's snippet from Tremors, Lachlann and Deidre are wrapping up a roadside conversation that he doesn't to have.

".. .and I've never..."
Oh, that conversation. He wanted to delay it. She raised her brows.
“Never what?”
He grinned. “I’ve never chosen a Christmas tree.”
He had a point. The dimple in his cheek had nothing to do with anything. She sighed.
“I’m such a sap.”
“A what?”
“Never mind.” She gave him a peck on the lips and put the truck into drive. “Let’s go choose a Christmas tree.”

A Little of This, a Little of That

Keep me away from the wisdom that does not cry, the philosophy that does not laugh, and the greatness which does not bow before children. – Gibran Khalil Gibran

There is much that is tragic about our world. There is also much that is beautiful. To be sure, a lot of the beauty extends to beyond this world. That beauty, that joy, comes from an all-encompassing, divine love.

This blog is meant to share that joy -- poetry, religion, the natural world, art, books, music, travel, history, and other lovely, beautiful topics. I find I have no wish to focus on the sad. I do realize, by the way, that a lot of history is sad. But we hardly need for me to highlight that.

One more thing/disclaimer: Religion, you might ask? I am a religious person, so much so that I fervently believe everyone should have the right to their own -- provided, of course, that it doesn't hurt others.

It is all about love and sharing.

Out beyond ideas of wrong and right, there is a field. I'll meet you there. -- Rumi
