Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Beauty will defeat the ugliness of what is now.
The Lord, the Creator is beauty.
✝️Awesomeness….
(interesting that)
it’s called Mother Nature🤔
Just beautiful, monticello.
“Beauty matters. It is not a subjective thing but a universal need of human beings. If we ignore this need we find ourselves in a spiritual desert.”
~The late Professor Sir Roger Scruton
God provides for all our needs, knowing that our souls thirst for beauty…and His promise which He has amply given to us.🙏🏻💕
“All I have needed, Thy hand hath provided.”
There was a very unique soul who once said that communism is killed by beauty and the arts and what people yearn for…..
Almost what you just quoted.
I think this is correct, monticello. Which is why such -isms do their dead level best to destroy anything of beauty…its being done here now and in Europe.
I am remembering Vladimir Horowitz when he returned to perform in Moscow very late in his life.
He was given permission to return but no notice of his concert was allowed…word of mouth spread the news like wildfire.
The well dressed, well connected were there. In the balcony were the ordinary people, clothed in their every day apparel.
I watched on PBS. And the thing which struck me then and which to this day I remember most is the faces of those in the balcony as Mr Horowitz played.
They knew what they were listening to, what had been denied them for decades. I can think of few times when I was as overwhelmed as I was by seeing the brief glimpses of the emotion on those faces.
Beauty. And it was a powerful performance, a moving performance. Those people were starved of it, and on that night their souls were fed.
If you have time and the desire to see it for yourself, I am leaving the link for the entire recital. I believe after your beautiful photograph and comment above, my friend, you (and anyone else who is interested) will appreciate the deep pathos of the evening, never to be repeated.
HOROWITZ IN MOSCOW
very nice monti . thanks. reminded me of Iz
A rainbow is a sight to behold – and a gift from our Creator.
I like this comment, too:
Beauty is both a gift and a map. It is a gift to be enjoyed and a map to be followed
back to the Source of the beauty with praise and thanksgiving.

And a promise
You’re so right – I love that, monti!
We can count it, too. God is a Promise Keeper.
Thanks! Just set as my desktop background.

My musical tastes are very diverse.
Just reading and nibbling on strawberries and chocolate…
Replay of old videos showing hidden (to USA citizens) activity on world stage by our ‘elected’ leaders, but more so of unelected people in bureaucracy of government, & intelligence folks, & Big hedge fund managers, bankers, financiers, multi-national corporation execs, even Hollywood inhabitants. At the actual page on Youtube, you can scroll down, wait for loading some of the larger playlists as necessary. Spend time, learn some actual history!

Woo hoo hot off the press, I am hopeful.

Heaven forefend, Elise, I should pour cold water on this, but even if successful, the Dem controlled Senate will acquit.
This allows Republican wing of the Uniparty to posture and pose in the House, knowing it will go nowhere.
Forgive me for sticking a pin in the balloon😬
No problem sis. i see both sides of the coin, but nice to see someone doing more than just yacking…..😁😁 some folks..we know who..need to be held accountable and not just oh well set them aside.
Question is are they doing something other than Kabuki* ?
Kabuki, traditional Japanese popular drama with singing and dancing performed in a highly stylized manner. A rich blend of music, dance, mime, and spectacular staging and costuming, it has been a major theatrical form in Japan for four centuries.
True, my friend. Very true. 👍🏻
Well, how you folks down in central and southern Texas doing? Kinda wet? Supposed to continue into Friday.
The Rio Grande will likely hit flood stages. Might help slow the invasion a bit.
The Colorado river is also going to be getting an even greater influx of water than it already has as the melt accelerates. I’m sure the Grand Canyon needs flushed and of course Lake Meade will once again cover it’s secrets and the Dam will be able to continue to produce electricity.
North central Mississippi is having thunderstorms this afternoon. A big one went through about 1500 and the second one is over us now.
I’m enjoying the cool down.
Hello Deb
The fields can use the rains
Enjoy the rain
☘️🍀☘️
Yes, that’s always true and I always enjoy the rain. Well, except when I have to drive in the down pours.
Good night friend
We in North Texas are cooler today as well, sans rain..But mustn’t be greedy. We had a full day of a gentle soaking rain yesterday. Not the kind that hits hard and fast on cracked earth and runs right off and then is over.
When I was a stripling, I remember wondering why adults talked about the weather so much. Boring, I thought…get it now😉
Thaaaaaat’s cute!
Isn’t it?? Its a real “awwwww” picture😊
Aww, kitties. Aww, puppies.

Live! Live! Live! scene | ‘Auntie Mame’ [1958]
Love LOVED Auntie Mame!!
Rosalind Russell gave a tour de force performance. She was so over the top.
One of my all time favourites, my friend. Thank you!!!!🤗
Auntie Mame – Telephone Operator
Auntie Mame reminds of one of my early jobs at a large metro bank.
We had a switchboard operator and ALL calls went through her first – whoo boy!!
She was older woman and we became fast buddies, tho. I miss her.
I miss the friends of my youth too, Della. Know the feeling well.
dont you wish you took more pics back then. i do
I do…and yet there are thousands tucked away in my heart, molon. Nothing can destroy them. They can’t get lost or misplaced. They are safe, ready for me to “look” at them want time I want🤗🍀
Which seems to be more and more often…sigh…
Auntie Mame – Fix The Animal In The Eye With a Masterful Gaze
Thank you for sharing! I’ve never seen this movie…and plan to watch it…
Oh DO, Christine!!!!! It is wonderful from start to finish. I’m betting you’ll watch it more than once😉
Me as well…
Hahahahahaha!! I remember laughing so hard at this the first time I saw it.😂😂😂
Good night, blessed friend.😘 Sleep well and have beautiful dreams.
good night my friend
sweet dreams

Why Blackadder shot a delicious, plump-breasted carrier pigeon
Wow!!!! Molon!!! You’re posting g some of my faves tonight.
We had a good friend in Wales. He was the local bobby for our area. We struck up an incredible friendship when he came to take a report of a breaking in our house by a bunch of Romany travelers who had parked in a laugh at the top of our lane.
He was a voracious reader and knew many languages which he taught himself. He had that sort of brain.
Blackadder was his favourite.
Rowan Atkinson is a fine actor. Most think of him as a comic one.
But for us his role as “MAIGRET”, the French detective, was his highest moment.
Two series worth watching…which we do over and over, they are that good.
…parked in a layby… Autocorrect doesn’t recognize British words it seems…
More silliness for the animal lovers… cats, ducks, chickens… hey, whatever floats your boat…
Sweetness. Mr. P.
Thank you, mr piddles.😊
Amen.
Amen and Amen
Amen

Amen.

Amen.
No matter what we meet on the roads we travel, Almighty God walks with us. No matter what storms we enounter, He is always by our side. Bless-ed be the Name of the Lord.🙏🏻
Nos da, dear friends. Thank you for a beautiful day.
