A day home.Snow/freezing rain expected.I was surprised! I have to laugh when I think of all of you in states with heavy snowfall,because today we expect 3-4 inches.Snow supposed to start falling at 10:00. We have no walkers in our district due to lack of sidewalks.Thus, it becomes a busing issue & at times the bus company‘s call. No complaints here; I woke at the same time I always do.It‘s been quiet, contemplative.☕️📚🙏🏻

Bookwormjillk I love your mug! Enjoy the day.

We were hoping for a 2 hour delay here, but all we got was rain. But it's ok- first day after Thanksgiving break I think they were secretly happy to go back.

kspenmoll @Bookwormjillk I plan to enjoy this gift of a day! 4d
Amiable I‘m working from home today. It‘s not heavy snow that bothers me —as a native New Englander, I can drive in that. It‘s the icy rain/sleet mix that keeps my butt in the house. Nope. Not going to get on I-95 if there‘s a chance of slick roads. People already drive like idiots on that highway in good weather. 😖 4d

The Imitation of Christ | Thomas a Kempis
post image
Pickpick

5 Stars • The Imitation of Christ (Latin: De Imitatione Christi) is one of the most widely read Christian spiritual classics after the Bible. Written by the German-Dutch monk Thomas à Kempis (a member of the Brethren of the Common Life and the Devotio Moderna movement), composed in Medieval Latin around 1418-1427. ⬇️

suvata It is a handbook of practical devotion aimed at helping the soul detach from the world and unite itself completely with Christ through humility, obedience, and interior prayer.

This is a beautiful collection of poems inspired and influenced by Maya Angelou's faith and love for humanity, and listening to her read them is a joy. Amazing Peace is such a gorgeous, moving poem to listen to at Christmas. (and I have to say, I wasn't expecting eulogies to Luther Vandross and Barry White.)

Centuries of Meditations | Thomas Traherne
post image

"When you love men, the world quickly becometh yours: and yourself become a greater treasure than the world is. For all their persons are your treasures, and all the things in Heaven and Earth that serve them, are yours. For those are the riches of Love, which minister to its Object."
-Thomas Traherne, "Centuries of Meditations"

I feel like I‘ve had to keep reminding myself not to suppress my emotions lately. I wanna encourage everyone to sit with their emotions today. Good & bad because those thoughts make up who we are. 💪
