Used a photo as reference to paint a digital tribute to Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
I was “joking” with my wife this morning, something to the effect of, “Arent dying people supposed to hang on to witness an event they’re really looking forward to?” Sigh. Wish you could have been around to see us try to get the ship righted. May we have the strength and courage to keep your light shining.
Opportunity
This is Richard Rohr’s list, originally created for men’s retreats. Five truths we must become awake to in order to truly “grow up.” Any hardship or trial is an invitation to remember these realities.
