Approach the altar and cross your arms upon your chest. Light the candles of life and death and take a moment to gaze into the mirror through the veil, seeing yourself as a being both of flesh and of spirit. Dipping your fingers into the chalice of water, touch them to your forehead, your lips, and your chest. As you do this, say:
"I anoint my forehead, that I may open my mind.
I anoint my lips, that I may loosen my tongue.
I anoint my chest, that I may open my heart."
The first step opens you mentally and psychically to a deeper experience of this threshold state. The second step opens you so you may better communicate across the veil. The third step opens you emotionally and energetically to the spirits and the forces they represent. Spreading your arms wide, picture the edges of the gate glowing softly around you. Reach out mentally to any spirits that may be gathering nearby. Silently invite them to attend you. Out loud, declare the following:
"Standing on the threshold between darkness and light, I open myself to the mysteries of death and transformation. Gather round, ye spirits, and whisper to me the secret names. Open the path before me and show me the way."
Close your eyes and allow your awareness to spread beyond the limits of your body. Listen carefully with both your physical and internal ears for any contact or messages. After a few moments, close yourself so you can exit the threshold state and return to the demands of your ordinary life. To close yourself, touch your forehead, lips and heart again, saying:
"The door is closed, but I carry it within. If a lesson presents itself to me, may it open again, so I may see and, seeing, learn."
Snuff the candles and return to your normal affairs.

Shabbat Shalom! This is a Friday the thirteenth, a notable numbering as it signifies the beast whose mark it is about which I am writing. (see The Number Thirteen (The Sign for the Bride - Part 3)) To note this date is not a matter of superstition, but the signification of such a thing should be understood by those who love the Lord Jesus Christ, Y'shua HaMashiach, and long for His appearing.
Here's an item in the news we should note. "Clinton urges Senate Democrats to pass health bill, saying imperfect bill better than no action" When you are aware of how Bill has been groomed as the beast-in-the-wings and see the role the public health sector is going to play, as presented in the big sign I've been planning to present soon, well... stay tuned!
This is one more in a series of blog posts that sheds light on what is perhaps the best kept secret in the history of the world. There is a plot to refashion mankind after the image of the dragon. It will bring an ascension of sorts, a mingling of a heavenly class of beings (sons of god) with the earthly (daughters of men) by way of a genetic modification. One of the objectives is immortality, but this transformation of man's DNA from a two strand to a three strand construction will serve merely as an anti-death agent, one that ultimately only guarantees a greater death to the participants. It is part of what the Bible refers to as the mark of the beast. As you consider the symbols being presented here, let's not be so gullible as to think those behind the unified presentation of symbolism might mean nothing by it.
The symbols I'm going to present now both resolve to the M"obius strip, which is to say they are really the same. The infinity and delta symbols are at least as popular and powerful as the triquetra and triskelion! The best way I know of explain the M"obius strip is to have you make one and play with it. Cut a strip of paper, give one end a half-twist and tape or glue the ends together. Go ahead, I'll wait.
On the right is a M"obius crop sign that appeared on 8/8/08 signalling the dragon's DNA plan.
If you draw a line on your paper M"obius you'll notice that you have to go around the loop twice before you reach your starting point again. Unlike a simple loop or band, this has one side, and one edge. It has different looks depending on which way you view it. If you try to flatten it out in a symmetrical fashion, it naturally forms a delta or triangle shape. This enigmatic object is actually a two-dimensional form that can only exist in a three-dimensional space.
The horizontal figure 8 form of the M"obius is used as the infinity symbol in mathematics. You could argue that a simple circle would serve just as well as a symbol for infinity, having no identifiable beginning or end, but that would get rather confusing as a mathematical symbol if the zero character is also a circle. The circular shape of a wedding band is commonly understood as symbolic of eternal love, as you probably know. A circular symbol known as the Ouroboros is one that's very relevant to this series exposing symbols of the DNA plot as it's a symbol of immortality formed most commonly of a serpent with its tail in its own mouth.
Here's some examples of the infinity form of the M"obius through which the dragon's plan to extend wicked demon-worshiping man's lifespan to infinity is presented.
This one combines it with a very thinly disguised Ouroboros, from the religious (unified world religions as Babylon) sector.
Here's two pictures of a sculpture outside the Smithsonian National Museum of American History in Washington DC. It is mounted high atop an obelisk, an ancient phallus symbol, of the sons of god. What? History? "He who controls the present, controls the past. He who controls the past, controls the future." (quoted from dystopian novel "1984" - by George Orwell)
Consider the logo chosen by Alcatel-Lucent, from the communications sector. Yes, Lucent; a name that is derivative of Lucifer, that fallen angel whose plan is behind the symbol.
You may recall this Lucent Technologies subsidiary with its triskelion logo from a previous post.
The SSM logo cleverly combines the triple helix with the immortality symbol, from the health care sector.
Almost its twin, here's a logo from the financial/commerce sector.
Are you ready to experience this new world of interaction? THE TIME IS NEAR! More coming about the ubiquitous Delta version, and then, a BIG REVEAL, Lord willing!

I found this recent, if brief, report from a Catholic priest-blogger on the new translations of the Mass in English to be heartening:
I`m on the diocesan clergy retreat at Ushaw this week so this is just a quick post. Some priest bloggers have discussed recently using the new translation of the OF Mass before the official launch date. I thought readers might be interested to know that Mass at the retreat today was celebrated by our bishop and priests using the new texts. Everyone dutifully replied `And with your spirit`. No-one died and no horses appeared to be frightened. My impression was that it seemed a bit more wordy but it was a huge improvement on what we have had. I expect we`ll be using the new translation the rest of the week.
Father Brown then updates-no, they're using the present translation after that one "trial run" of the new one. Like a commenter on Father Brown's site, I like the line about the horses. :)
There seem to be quite a few priests blogging about the new translations, such as Msgr. Pope, who posted this piece today about the difference between "And also with you," and "And with your spirit." Msgr. Pope explains:
Of all the questions I've had about the New Translation of the Roman Missal the most common revolves around the response of the people "And with your spirit" as a replacement for the current "And also with you." One woman said to me, "It sounds as if our bodies no longer matter?"
FLAWED PREMISE? Most of the controversy around the issue is premised on a notion that the current expression "And also with you" is a more formal equivalent of "Same to you." As if, when the Priest says "The Lord be with you" and the congregation were to respond "Same to you, Father." But this is not really what is being said by the congregation or what is meant by the Latin response "et cum spiritu tuo" (and with your spirit). The current translation is not only inaccurate, it is misleading because most people think they are say "same to you, Father."
WELL, IF THAT ISN'T WHAT IS BEING SAID, WHAT REALLY IS BEING SAID? In effect, the expression "et cum spiritu tuo" (soon to be accurately translated "and with your spirit") is an acknowledgement by the congregation of the grace and presence of Christ who is present and operative in the spirit or soul of the celebrant. Christ's Spirit is present in the priest in a unique way in virtue of his ordination. Hence what the dialogue means is:
* CELEBRANT: The Lord be with you.
* CONGREGATION: We do in fact acknowledge the grace, presence and Spirit of Christ in your spirit. [All emphases in original-E.M.]
Read the rest, here.
It's interesting that what is meant, in the liturgy, to be an acknowledgment by the people of the priest's unique role in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass has dwindled into a mere "you, too, Father!" which has, in turn, become so rote and so mechanical that it barely means anything. Most of us have heard a variation of the joke about this phrase, which goes something like this:
A priest is struggling with a microphone which keeps cutting in and out on him as he attempts to say Mass. Finally, in his frustration, he says "There is something seriously wrong with this microphone!"
And the congregation replies, "And also with you."
For forty years now, the English world has used a translation of the Mass which has been, to put it politely, somewhat lacking. My Spanish-speaking parish family members, when they attend Mass in their native tongue, say, "And with your spirit," (Y con tu espiritu) among other responses which are close to the Latin. That the English has been so vastly different for so long from the Latin, the Spanish, and other translations is actually rather embarrassing.
And the resistance to the new translation is telling, too-because it seems to be not so much a resistance to the idea of making the English align more closely to the Latin, as to the repudiation of the model of "dynamic equivalence" in translation and the notion that the English used at Mass should be the kind of ordinary, simple, inelegant English prevalent in modern speech. The defenders of "dynamic equivalence" seem to be defending not merely a translation model, but an unfortunate notion which swept through the English-speaking Catholic world following the Second Vatican Council-the notion that churches exist for a community to gather and share its stories and journeys in a friendly, folksy, down-to-earth environment devoid of anything majestic, reverent, awe-inspiring, or, indeed, conducive at all to that act we call "worship." An example of that kind of thinking can be found here, among many other places:
Where we worship shapes our prayer and how we pray shapes the way in which we live. Using metaphorical equations to design the worship arena my hope in any project is that the congregation will be transfigured by the very space it is helping to create or transform. I believe that places for worship become sacred when the celebrations of life-cycle events occur there. In this sense the building is designed primarily to house the assembly and its worship of God. It is not an object of devotion by itself nor is it a temple to honor the deity. The fundamental blueprint for the building is found in the memories and hopes of the community. This is why participation of the congregation in the building or renovation journey is extremely important.
The time honored ingredients of a worthy place for worship include stories of faith, pilgrimage pathways, transforming thresholds, intimate settings for personal prayer, art work that prompts works of justice and seating plans that engage the community in the public rituals. To evoke a sense of the sacred the building must be designed with attention to detail, scale, proportion, materials, color, illumination and acoustics. All art and furnishings must be of the highest caliber afforded by the community. Sensitivity to ecological and economical factors cannot be overlooked.
Memory and imagination are the main tools in any worship space project.The above is Richard Vosko's philosophy, from his website; he has designed many "worship spaces" in which "...and also with you..." sounds appropriate for the mundanity and banality of the space, but in which "And with your spirit," may sound rather...jarringly ineffable inside such temples to humanity.
Resistance to the new translation will come, then, primarily from that quarter which thought that the Second Vatican Council heralded a new age in transformative religion, an era in which incense, bowing, majestic words and reverent attitudes would give way to casual demeanor, everyday speech, hand-holding and hugging, and the like-all leading up to that day when men stopped worshiping God, and showed up at church primarily to give Him an opportunity to admire us in our great specialness. The sloppy translations were a piece of the new edifice called the "worship space"-not the only piece, to be sure, but an important one.
Those who resist the new translations seem to be deeply afraid that if people begin praying the Mass according to a more reverent, dignified, majestic translation of the Latin into English, that all of a sudden all sorts of other things, from garish art to the explosion of EMHCs to the shoddy, banal-sounding music to the "druid temple in-the-round" architecture will seem, suddenly, cheap-too cheap and too silly to present as our best efforts to the almighty God Whom (Richard Vosko notwithstanding) we gather to worship and adore.
"Wait!" they seem to exclaim, wringing their hands. "We worked so hard to change the Mass from some stuffy, remote thing fixated on God to something the whole family can enjoy! We've spent our whole lives trying to sing a new Church into being! And now...now you're turning the clock back to a time of formality and reverence! Can't you see that this makes it look as if, all along, there was something terribly wrong with all of our ideas, and plots, and plans?"
It would be too terribly unkind to mutter in reply, "...and also with you."

Color of the day: RED
Incense of the day: Ylang-ylang
In Celtic tradition, March was the traditional time for planting and sowing seeds and for spiritual healing and magick herbs, In Scotland the seed was sprinkled with clear, cold water for three days prior to planting, the person doing the ritual walking in a deosil direction. Then the seed was ritually consecrated and used in an ancient ritual to enhance the power of the sacred planting:
Toxic emotions can bring on health concerns. It is essential to clear the air after any kind of argument or misunderstanding. One way to clear the air is by using poppet magic. For this, go to a craft store and buy a small rag doll without features or hair. Pin to the doll the name of the person who has been causing you problems, as well as his or her astrological sign on the doll's chest, near the area of the heart. If you have a picture of the person, all the better; you can scan the image and pin it to the doll's face. Light a Red candle, saying:
I will go out to sow the seeds,
In the name of those who gave it growth
I will stand before the wind
And throw a handful in the air.
Seed day, auspicious day
The dew will come down to welcome
Every seed that lay asleep
Since the coming of the cold.
Every seed will take root in the earth
As the rulers of the elements desire.
The grain will come forth with the dew
It will inhale life from the gentle wind.
Peace we make,
disquiet friend.
With this prick
our troubles end.
Peace is the way.
Love is the power.
Our problems flee
this very hour.
Serenity,
that is the key.
Heal our love.
So mote it be.

Oh, Great Spirit, whose voice I hear in the wind, whose breath gives life to all the world. Hear me; I need your strength and wisdom. Let me walk in beauty, and make my eyes ever behold the red and purple sunset. Make my hands respect the things you have made and my ears sharp to hear your voice make me wise so that I may understand the things you have taught my people.
Help me to remain calm and strong in the face of all that comes towards me. Let me learn the lessons you have hidden in every leaf and rock. Help me seek pure thoughts and act with the intention of helping others. Help me find compassion without empathy overwhelming me. I seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy - Myself. Make me always ready to come to you with clean hands and straight eyes. So when life fades, as the fading sunset, my spirit may come to you without shame. -American Indian - Lakota - Chief Yellow Lark 1887

ANTIGODDESS 9/13/13
Old Gods never die...
Or so Athena thought. But then the feathers started sprouting beneath her skin, invading her lungs like a strange cancer, and Hermes showed up with a fever eating away his flesh. So much for living a quiet eternity in perpetual health.
Desperately seeking the cause of their slow, miserable deaths, Athena and Hermes travel the world, gathering allies and discovering enemies both new and old. Their search leads them to Cassandra-an ordinary girl who was once an extraordinary prophetess, protected and loved by a god.
These days, Cassandra doesn't involve herself in the business of gods-in fact, she doesn't even know they exist. But she could be the key in a war that is only just beginning.
Because Hera, the queen of the gods, has aligned herself with other of the ancient Olympians, who are killing off rivals in an attempt to prolong their own lives. But these anti-gods have become corrupted in their desperation to survive, horrific caricatures of their former glory. Athena will need every advantage she can get, because immortals don't just flicker out.
Every one of them dies in their own way. Some choke on feathers. Others become monsters. All of them rage against their last breath.
The Goddess War is about to begin.

Violet knows something is wrong with River, the crooked-smiling, coffee-loving liar renting the guesthouse behind her rotting mansion, where she lives alone with her twin brother. And Violet knows something is wrong with her town-kids hunting monsters in cemeteries, girls fainting outside old train tunnels, men cutting themselves in the town square.
But she doesn't care.
Violet's grandmother had warned her about the Devil, had talked about him often, as if he were a best friend, or an old lover. But she never told Violet that the Devil could be a dark-haired boy in vintage clothes who takes naps with you in the sun and likes old movies and has a deep sense of vengeance.
Violet's already so knee-deep in love she can't see straight.
And that's just how River likes it.

Some time ago I ordered from my friend Kris's cool magical Etsy shop, Mrs. B.'s Brews and Baubles, a prosperity oil (because it's never too much to have it at home). To my surprise, the sweet witch added a couple of other products, that made my heart sing - some of my favorites there!
Okay, one at a time...
I used her prosperity oil this Waxing Moon (and OF COURSE, Lucas wanted to join me!). I regularly make this spell so I'm never completely broke, lol! This time I made one a bit more elaborated, meaning that it lasted the whole waxing moon phase, for my little witch's delight. The anointing oil has a subtle scent, always better for me, who can't stand any strong scents. It came in a cool little glass bottle and it will surely last long!
The other item was her Sleepy Time Bath Soak, made with lavender, chamomile and three different types of salts. Lately I've feeling restless at bedtime and can't properly relax to sleep fast, so it came in the best time.
Originally to be ued in a bathtube, it can be taken to showers too. I put a handful (there's a generous quantity for two batches) into an organza bag and hang it on the shower head, so the water would run through the bag, while I visualized negativity and stress being washed down my body, and out of the shower into the drain.
I can't tell how relaxing it was and how good was the scent - again, it was subtle and refreshing, and my shower time got to a higher level, really relaxing me enough to go sraight to bed and have a good night's sleep!
And there's her black salt, which I'm saving for my traditional Waning Moon's cleansing ritual. After using her other witchy stuff, I know it will be perfect to intensify the protection circle.
I highly recommend Mrs. B.'s shop if you're looking for made-with-care magickal products!
PS: I was not paid or even asked to do this "review", I did it freely just because I really loved the results!

Abatwa
Said to be the tiniest creatures of human form in existence, these little people coexist peacefully with the ants in the anthills of Southern Africa and live on their foragings from the roots of grasses and other plants. They are very shy and so are elusive, however tend to reveal themselves to very young children, wizards, and pregnant women.

In a midnight court, Aeval heard both sides and then decreed the men wrong and sentenced them to overcome their prudishness and accede to the woman's needs. (Kisma)
Angiaks
Children of the living dead of Eskimo lore. In hard times, unwanted babies were taken out into the snow by tribal elders to die of exposure. Unless the tribe would move to a new hunting ground, they would often find themselves haunted by this small, miserable ghost.
Ankou
The faerie version of the grim reaper. Sometimes he's portrayed as a benevolent, comforting figure.
Anthropophagi

I have written and given talks on the significance of the Hand of Miriam also called the Chamsa (five). The Muslims call it the Hand of Fatima. The Catholics know it as Mano Ponderosa (the Big Hand). Some Catholic writers have connected the apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima in Portugal with Queen Esther and the Book of Esther.
Queen Esther and Mordecai were from the tribe of Benjamin. Esther's name means star and her hebrew name Hadassah is the name for the 5 pointed star shaped flower known as myrtle. In the recent apparitions of Our Lady of Light in Giza Egypt one person commented that it reminded her of the shape of the Chamsa.
The five may represent the 5 Marian dogmas. [click here for an article on Fatima and Queen Esther]
The Jewish festival of light Chanukah is also linked to the chamsa or hand of Miriam by the parshat Mikeitz reading. Shirat Devorah blog states: "AND BINYAMIN'S PORTION WAS FIVE TIMES AS LARGE AS ANY OF THEM" [MIKEITZ 43:34]AS IS WELL KNOWN, SAID R' NAFTALI OF ROPSHITZ, CHANUKAH ALWAYS FALLS OUT DURING THE WEEK THAT WE READ PARSHAS MIKEITZ.
THIS IS HINTED TO IN THE TORAH, AS THE VERSE STATES: "AND BINYAMIN'S PORTION WAS FIVE TIMES (CHAMESH YADOS) AS LARGE AS ANY OF THEM. CHAMESH YADOS" ALLUDES TO THE FIVE INSTANCES THAT WE MENTION THE WORD "YAD" (HAND) IN THE SPECIAL CHANUKAH PRAYER AL HANISSIM: YOU DELIVERED THE MIGHTY INTO THE HANDS OF THE WEAK, THE MANY INTO THE HANDS OF THE FEW, THE IMPURE INTO THE HANDS OF THE PURE, THE WICKED INTO THE HANDS OF THE RIGHTEOUS, AND THE WANTON SINNERS INTO THE HANDS OF THOSE WHO OCCUPY THEMSELVES WITH YOUR TORAH.
"
The Parshat Mikeitz also speaks of Joseph and his dreams. Parshat Mikeitz means the Parshat 'from the end'. This alludes to the period of time known as the 'end of times'. The Zohar speaks of two periods known as the end of time. We are now in the first period of the 'end of time' before the Great Era of Peace.
Mikeitz can also mean "from the thorns" alluding to the Ram caught in the thorns at the Akeidah of Isaac as well as the Rose among the thorns in the Song of Songs. The Midrash also says:"WHEN A ROSE IS AMONG THORNS, A NORTH WIND GOES FORTH AND BENDS HER TOWARD THE SOUTH AND A THORN PRICKS HER, THEN A SOUTH WIND GOES FORTH AND BENDS HER TOWARD THE NORTH AND A THORN PRICKS HER; YET, FOR ALL THAT, HER CORE IS DIRECTED UPWARDS.
THE SAME IS TRUE WITH THE JEWISH PEOPLE. ALTHOUGH THEY ARE OPPRESSED AND TORTURED FROM ALL SIDES BY THE NATIONS, THEIR HEARTS ARE DIRECTED TOWARDS THEIR FATHER IN HEAVEN." The mystical North Wind (Tzaphon ruach)refers to Our Lady who is snow white. It is the North wind that comes and blows on David's harp at midnight.
Kabbalah associates this north wind or spirit with the ruach that hovered over the face of the Waters. It also associates her with Binah the Mother. The north wind has the five gevurot (powers) of the imma (mother/mama) and this is represented by the five wings or corners of the lungs from which ruach comes.
The north wind blows on 5 of the strings of David's harp with the Song of Miriam (the song of the Redemption). She is the hidden ruach of the heart. It is said that the evil spirits roam the night but when the north wind comes at midnight they flee into a cavern in the sea. The south wind is associated with Chesed (loving kindness or charity).
She is also associated with the heat or warmth of the Sun and she blows on the other 5 strings of David's harp the Song of the Future (the Song of Santification). The north wind is the Givirah (Queen Mother) of the King of Peace (Solomon)and the south wind is the Queen of Sheba- the Queen coming out of the captivity of the fallen into the kingdom of the Divine Will.
They share in the wounds of love of the King and in his tikkun (reparation)for all.
MANO PONDEROSA
The Baal ha Turim in discussing this Parshat Mikeitz links the ten years Joseph was in prison before the dreams with the Mikeitz of ten years of Abraham in Genesis 16:3 and the mikeitz of two years until the dream of Pharoah.
The two dreamers of 'the end of 10 years' represent the two messianic figures that will rise- one a false Messiah and the other the true Messiah under the patronage of Joseph. This is in the 11th year and then after "the end of two years' [thus the 13th year]the false messiah will be destroyed and the true messiah triumphant.
The baker represents the one who will abolish the true mass and replace it with the bread of demons. The cup bearer represents the one who will restore the true eucharistic cup of the Lord.
The period of thorns is also known as the time of Jacob's trouble which will end with the restoration of man to living in the Divine Will as Adam did in the 36 hours.
These 36 hours are represented by the 36 lights of Hanukah and the 36 volumes of the Book of Heaven by Luisa Piccarreta. Rabbi Phincas Winston writing on Parshat mikeitz: "...LIKEWISE WAS IT THE CASE WITH MATTISYAHU AND HIS TINY ARMY OF ZEALOTS. SURVEYING THE DEVELOPING SITUATION AROUND HIM, THEY SENSED THAT A KEITZ, AND THEREFORE, A REDEMPTION AS WELL, WAS AT HAND.
THIS ENCOURAGED THEM, LIKE MORDECHAI BEFORE THEM, TO TAKE A STAND AND FIGHT, BRINGING ABOUT THE CHANUKAH MIRACLE WE CELEBRATE EACH YEAR, WITH THE LIGHTING OF THE MENORAH. FOR, IT IS THE MENORAH THAT SYMBOLIZES THIS VERY IDEA OF HOW GOD BUILDS INTO CREATION WHAT HE NEEDS FOR EACH KEITZ ALONG THE WAY.
FOR EXAMPLE, LONG BEFORE THERE WAS EVEN A FIRST TEMPLE, LET ALONE A SECOND TEMPLE TO REDEDICATE, THE TORAH ALLUDES TO THE MIRACLE OF CHANUKAH: BUT HE GOT UP THAT NIGHT AND TOOK HIS TWO WIVES, HIS TWO HANDMAIDS, AND HIS ELEVEN SONS AND CROSSED THE FORD OF THE YABOK. AND WHEN HE TOOK THEM AND HAD THEM CROSS THE STREAM, HE SENT OVER WHAT WAS HIS.
YA'AKOV WAS LEFT ALONE... (BEREISHIS 32:23-25) REBI ELAZAR SAID: HE REMAINED FOR SMALL JARS. FROM HERE WE LEARN THAT RIGHTEOUS PEOPLE VALUE THEIR PROPERTY MORE THAN THEIR OWN BODIES. (CHULLIN 91A) GOD SAID TO YA'AKOV, "FOR ENDANGERING YOURSELF FOR A SMALL CONTAINER, I MYSELF WILL REPAY YOUR CHILDREN WITH A SMALL CONTAINER TO THE CHASHMONAIM!
"(MIDRASH TZEIDAH LADERECH, MAHARIL) INDEED, THE BIBLICAL ROOTS OF THE CHANUKAH MIRACLE GO BACK EVEN FURTHER IN TIME, WHILE YA'AKOV AVINU WAS JUST STARTING HIS JOURNEY, NOT AS HE WAS FINISHING IT: FROM WHERE DID YA'AKOV GET THIS JAR? WHEN HE PICKED UP THE STONES FROM UNDER HIS HEAD AND RETURNED THEM IN THE MORNING, HE FOUND A STONE THAT HAD A JAR OF OIL IN IT, AND HE USED IT TO POUR ON THE TOP STONE.
WHEN IT REFILLED ITSELF, YA'AKOV KNEW IT WAS SET ASIDE FOR GOD. HE SAID, "IT'S NOT RIGHT TO LEAVE THIS HERE." ALL MIRACLES THROUGHOUT TANACH OCCURRED WITH THIS JAR OF OIL. (YALKUT REUVEINI, VAYISHLACH) AND, APPARENTLY, EVEN THOSE BEYOND TANACH AS WELL: WHAT IS THE BASIS OF [THE HOLIDAY OF] CHANUKAH?
THE RABBIS TAUGHT: ON THE 25TH DAY OF KISLEV BEGIN THE DAYS OF CHANUKAH, EIGHT DAYS DURING WHICH WE DO NOT EULOGIZE OR FAST. FOR, WHEN THE GREEKS ENTERED THE SANCTUARY THEY DEFILED ALL THE OIL IN THE SANCTUARY, AND WHEN THE KINGDOM OF THE HOUSE OF CHASHMONAI PROVED VICTORIOUS, THEY SEARCHED AND COULD ONLY FIND ONE JAR OF OIL WITH THE SEAL OF THE KOHEN GADOL STILL INTACT,SUFFICIENT FOR ONLY ONE DAY OF LIGHTING.
A MIRACLE HAPPENED TO IT [THE OIL], AND THEY WERE ABLE TO LIGHT FROM IT FOR EIGHT DAYS. (SHABBOS 21B) INDEED, THIS IS A NOVEL WAY TO DEFINE A KEITZ: AN EVENT DURING WHICH THE UNDERCURRENT OF HISTORY RISES TO THE TOP, LIKE A GEYSER OF WATER EXPLODING THROUGH THE SURFACE OF TIME. THIS IS WHY, THE NUMBER 36, WHICH REPRESENTS THE REVELATION OF THE OHR HAGANUZ, THE SUPERNAL HIDDEN LIGHT WITH WHICH GOD MADE AND MAINTAINS CREATION: FOR 36 HOURS THE LIGHT SERVED...
AND ADAM HARISHON SAW WITH IT FROM ONE END OF THE WORLD TO THE OTHER. (YERUSHALMI, BROCHOS 8:5) KEEPS SURFACING THROUGHOUT HISTORY. FOR, EVERY TIME IT DOES, IT MEANS SOMETHING TO DO WITH REDEMPTION, OR THE LACK OF IT, HAS OCCURRED: GOD CALLED OUT TO THE MAN AND SAID TO HIM, "AIYEKAH-WHERE ARE YOU?" (BEREISHIS 3:9) THE WORD "AIYEKAH" IS MEANT ONLY AS A GEMATRIA, TOTALING 36.
(EICHAH ZUTA 1:1) HENCE, YA'AKOV AVINU WAS AWAY FROM HOME FOR A TOTAL OF 36 YEARS, WAS MARRIED TO A WIFE WHO DIED AT THE AGE OF 36, AND TO ANOTHER WHOSE NAME HAS THE GEMATRIA OF 36. IT IS ALSO WHY, AFTER STRUGGLING WITH THE ANGEL FOR THE ENTIRE NIGHT, AND SUSTAINING SOME BODILY DAMAGE, IT SAYS: THE SUN SHONE FOR HIM-LAMED-VAV-AS HE PASSED PENUEL AND HE WAS LIMPING ON HIS HIP.
(BEREISHIS 32:32) THE WORD "LO" REFERS TO THE 36 CANDLES OF CHANUKAH. (MAHARIL, AVODAH ZARAH 3B) EACH TIME THE NUMBER 36 SURFACES, IT IS A REVELATION OF THE UNDERCURRENT OF HISTORY, A KEITZ, WHICH IS WHY CHANUKAH OCCURRED IN THE 36TH CENTURY FROM CREATION. AND, WHEN WE LIGHT OUR MENORAHS EACH CHANUKAH, IT IS THIS THAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO HAVE IN MIND...
"
Many of the Hamsa Hand of Miriam's have the Magen David, a Chai, an Eye or Fish on them. The Fish alludes to Joseph. The Zohar reveals that the mysterious young child who talks with the Rabbis is a son of Joseph and thus protected from the evil eye. The blessing of Jospeh in Genesis by Jacob refers to fish.
Also Joshua ben Nun is descended from Joseph and Nun is fishhook in Hebrew and Nuna is fish in Aramaic. Rebbe Nachman also speaks of the sign of the fish in connection with the concept of Joseph, the Tzaddikim and Messiah son of Joseph in Likutey Moharan.

It has come to my attention that the Manchester Union Leader's website is running an advertisement for an organization calling itself "7 lies.org." When one visits the Union Leader's website and clicks on the opinion link: For those who choose to take the "course," Perry Marshall will explain "key milestones in Church history" and will "dissect the most common lies" and "illuminate the fault line that separates genuine spirituality from EMPTY RELIGIOUS DOGMA."
Empty religious dogma? As Catholics, we understand that Dogmas are those Church doctrines which the Church proposes for belief as "formally" revealed by God. And nothing revealed by God may be said to be "empty."
I would encourage faithful Catholics to register their complaint with the Union Leader by visiting the link I have provided and clicking on the "contact us" link.
God love you all,

These Moses's left the Children of Israel behind in Egypt!
This is a story I heard from my friend when the Holy Spirit led him into a useful understanding of Scripture. Since it was tremendously helpful to me, I thought I would share it here.
A business college asked him to speak with students during the annual retreat. Since I'd sold him on my "choose between God or Mammon" view, he expressed his ability to support the doing of business activity only in accepting it as a temporary truce, terms of peace, using unrighteous Mammon until it disappeared so that one could be welcomed into eternal homes of those who had left the world to follow Christ.
A. Follow Christ, receive mansion
B. Make friends of disciple, receive a place in the guestroom.
C. Follow Mammon, end up in the doghouse.
He would conclude that option B was an interim arrangement, until option A was chosen. He got the go ahead. He sent a draft. He was called and advised it was too strong. The first speaker had already taught it was inadvisable to mix the spiritual world with the business world. One couldn't be sentimental but needed a killer instinct to survive.
This was a damper to the college, a Christian institution with a career training wing. They asked him to encourage emulation of charitable business persons ranging from Jobs, 0 to Gates, 8 and Sandberg, 10 linking giving and believing Christ to greater happiness.
They gave him a program with a title of "Who am I?" As he prepared the lesson, starting by praying, the Holy Spirit blessed him with an understanding: Jesus was praising his disciples for a job done well. Here:
LUKE 10:17-20 NET THEN THE SEVENTY-TWO RETURNED WITH JOY, SAYING, "LORD, EVEN THE DEMONS SUBMIT TO US IN YOUR NAME!" SO HE SAID TO THEM, "I SAW SATAN FALL LIKE LIGHTNING FROM HEAVEN. LOOK, I HAVE GIVEN YOU AUTHORITY TO TREAD ON SNAKES AND SCORPIONS AND ON THE FULL FORCE OF THE ENEMY, AND NOTHING WILL HURT YOU. NEVERTHELESS, DO NOT REJOICE THAT THE SPIRITS SUBMIT TO YOU, BUT REJOICE THAT YOUR NAMES STAND WRITTEN IN HEAVEN."
He realized that "who" one is depends on "where" one is. During a stint with a small organisation, he often wore different hats in different cities. He would be inspecting installations of equipment sold by the company in one and selling equipment in another. The guidance he needed was from his Planner, which told him where he was in time and geography every waking minute.
Similarly the disciples, being good Jews who knew their Old Testament, realized that Jesus had told them that they had just graduated His three year course, they knew Where they were in their Christian life in terms of preparedness. Because Exodus 32:32 has Moses wanting to return his diploma:
Exodus 32:32 NET But now, if you will forgive their sin, but if not, wipe me out from your book that you have written."
Moses asked for credentials when going to Egypt, to convince the Children of Israel he was qualified to bring them out of Egypt. God gives him what he needs. He goes to Egypt and pushes back Pharaoh and his army. He pulls Israel out.
When God tells us to announce the arrival of the Kingdom of God and the resulting freeing of the captives to sin, we can ask for empowering. This empowering persuades our listeners to follow us as we push away sins oppressive forces, sickness, poverty and hard labour and pull our family and friends and neighbors to safety into the Promised Land, AKA Kingdom of God.
Luke 10:9-12 NET Heal the sick in that town and say to them, 'The kingdom of God has come upon you!' But whenever you enter a town and the people do not welcome you, go into its streets and say, 'Even the dust of your town that clings to our feet we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this: The kingdom of God has come.' I tell you, it will be more bearable on that day for Sodom than for that town!
Will believers hear God say to them, "Nevertheless, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names stand written in heaven" as they push back financial and other oppression in their circle with their diplomas, or will they hear,
MATTHEW 7:23 NET THEN I WILL DECLARE TO THEM, 'I NEVER KNEW YOU. GO AWAY FROM ME, YOU LAWBREAKERS!'
These Moses's had left the Children of Israel behind in Egypt!
Luke 4:18-21 NET " The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and the regaining of sight to the blind, to set free those who are oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord ' s favor. " Then he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant, and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fixed on him. Then he began to tell them, "Today this scripture has been fulfilled even as you heard it being read."
John 3:2 He came to Jesus at night and said, "Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the signs you are doing if God were not with him."
John 10:37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not. 38but if I do them, though you do not believe Me, believe the works, so that you may know and understand that the Father is in Me, and I in the Father."
Luke 7:18-23 NET John's disciples informed him about all these things. So John called two of his disciples and sent them to Jesus to ask, "Are you the one who is to come, or should we look for another?" When the men came to Jesus, they said, "John the Baptist has sent us to you to ask, 'Are you the one who is to come, or should we look for another?'" At that very time Jesus cured many people of diseases, sicknesses, and evil spirits, and granted sight to many who were blind. So he answered them, "Go tell John what you have seen and heard: The blind see, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, the poor have good news proclaimed to them. Blessed is anyone who takes no offense at me."
In David Platt's book," Radical", he writes of George Muller who set up an orphanage, without asking for support. Muller is recorded as saying his ministry was not to look after orphans, but to persuade people God was with him and they needed to come" out of Egypt" where the slave masters overworked you, paid you nothing, and threw your body to decay in the desert when you died, and come to the Promised Land, where one would live in houses built by others and drink from Wells dug by others.
Matthew 19:29-30 NET And whoever has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and the last first.
Remember, being a blessing materially to your family and friends is God's command to you, but it is only equipping, to bring them out of Egypt. Remaining in Egypt is dangerous. The oppressors can return.
Obedience, is announcing that God's Kingdom has come, law keeping is not complete till THAT is done.
Gosh, the Holy Spirit completely blew us away, both my friend and I! Hope He has the same effect on you and people you share His leading with.

I. INTRODUCTION
The Anglican Catholic Church in Democratic Republic of Congo joined the Anglican Catholic Church Original Province and was welcomed at November 2009. The first plan of Archbishop Mark Haverland Metropolitan of the ACC-OP was to endeavour to send a bishop to perform confirmations and ordinations which were waited for five years ago in the former Church. This act has convinced Congolese Church to conclude that the ACC is very friendly to missions in general and to work in Africa particular; because for a length of six months as a member church of the ACC-OP a dream has become a reality.

Archbishop Mark Haverland has made it a reality by sending Bishop Wilson Garang from the diocese of Awiel South Sudan to perform confirmations and ordinations.

III. THE PARISHES WHO MISSED THE EPISCOPAL VISIT OF BISHOP GARANG
These things were done by Bishop Garang and many remain to be done. The following parishes missed the Episcopal visit of the Right Reverend Wilson Garang due many reasons of the area where the parishes are situated and distance from the ACC-Congo's headquarter.
* The 330 Faithful of the 6 congregations of Saint Luke- Katenga Parish didn't get confirmation because they live on the mountain where the vehicle can not reach the parish even motorbike and Bishop didn't get time to do the confirmations.
* The 329 Faithful of the 9 congregations of Saint Barnabas- Ubwari Parish didn't get confirmations because they live on the Ubwari peninsula where the vehicle can not reach Parish (accessible only by boat) and Bishop didn't get time to do confirmation.
* The 308 Faithful of the 7 congregations of Saint Jacques- Lwiko Parish didn't get confirmations because they live in the villages situated on the mountain in Equatorial Forest where a four wheel car can reach the Parish and walk 29 Km for other congregations.
* The 175 Faithful of the 5 congregations of Saint Thomas- Kipupu Parish didn't get confirmation because they live in the villages situated in Equatorial Forest where even four wheel car can not reach only airplane and walk 87 Km.
* The 230 Faithful of the 6 congregations of Saint Joseph- Kabandja Parish didn't get confirmations because they live in the villages situated in Equatorial Forest where even four wheel car can not reach, but only an airplane, and walk 49 Km.
* The 324 Faithful of the 8 congregations of Saint Mark- Kisanya Parish didn't get confirmations because they live in the villages situated in Equatorial Forest where even four wheel car can not reach, but only an airplane, and walk 75 Km.
* The192 Faithful of the 7 congregations of Saint Jean- Misisi Parish didn't get confirmationsbecause they live in Border of Province of South Kivu and in one territory of Katanga for a distance of 450 Km from Bukavu town, but a four wheel car can reach parish.
IV. CONCLUSION
The Right Reverend Wilson Garang arrived on Saturday May 8th with Father Phanuel Munezero were welcomed in the border of Rwanda and DR-Congo by Father Steven AYULE-MILENGE, the Administrator of the ACC-Congo. Our programme has undergone some modification because Bishop has chosen to work very hard for confirmation and ordination for those who were ready during his passage in the parishes. This led us to finish the visit before the schedule established. Thus, Bishop returned Friday May 14th escorted by Fathers Steven AYULE-MILENGE and Phanuel Munezero to Bujumbura capital city of Republic of Burundi because Bishop lacks entrance visa for Rwanda. On Saturday May 15th, 2010 bishop gets his airplane at 11 Pm to fly up Nairobi- Kenya.
Bishop confirmed 92 persons adults and children, who were ready, from congregations of 6 parishes situated on the main road of Bukavu to Fizi where we drove 758 Km for our trips. He has ordained 17 persons to the diaconate, and 3 of them were ordained to the priesthood. Now, the ACC-Congo has 5 priests and 14 deacons. Thanks to His Grace Archbishop Mark Haverland for sending Bishop Wilson Garang to do confirmations and ordinations on his behalf. For a length of six months we joined the ACC-OP as member a dream has become a reality.
The 7 parishes with their 48 congregations missed the Episcopal visit of the Right Reverend Wilson Garang because they are situated in Equatorial Forest and mountain where even four wheel car can not reach. Also we can not bring our guest in unsafe area where Rwandan Hutu militia forces (Interahamwe), who had fled Rwanda following the ascension of a Tutsi-led government, had been using Congolese Equatorial forest in eastern DR-Congo as a basis for incursion against the government of DR-Congo who had signed peace accord with the Republic of Rwanda. Much of the conflict was focused on gaining control of substantial natural resources country, including diamonds, copper, zinc, gold and coltan.
Two ordinands from two parishes situated in Equatorial forest and mountain missed their ordinations to diaconate during the Episcopal visit of the Right Reverend Wilson Garang because our letter reached them when the fighting was done in the area. Even in the parish of Saint Paul- Fizi, we arrived when government forces and militia were fighting two weeks ago. This was the reason that pushed us to make Fizi as our last step where Christians met with Bishop Garang for confirmation when they are coming from in the forest where they fled during the fighting and still now waiting for the peace.
We thank Bishop Garang for the work he has done very hard and Father Munezero for his best interpretation of English- Swahili during confirmation and ordination service. Again we thank His Grace Mark Haverland and all ACC-OP bishops who has allowed this Episcopal visitation to be done in the ACC- Congo because a dream has become a reality. God bless all.
Thanks,
For the Anglican Catholic Church in Congo,
+Reverend Father Steven AYULE-MILENGE
Administrator of ACC- Congo

As I sit here during Day 2 of a long software implementation, I remember that I have Steve Jobs to thank for this. A long time ago when I still wore short dresses and high heels, my first job out of college was as a legal secretary. Four years of college to become an English teacher and the job I landed paying 50% more than the nearest teaching job was one that required my high school typing class and my solid Catholic grade school grammar. But the senior partner was a quirky guy named Troy who was trying to get an Apple computer to drive an IBM typewriter. This could be fun.
He and one of his clients had this contraption set up in the little law library at the back of the offices. Troy's wife Jeannie refused to have anything to do with it, seeing only money being flushed away on expensive gadgets with no new money floating in. Office managers have to think that way. And Troy's favorite legal secretary Sue likewise declined the opportunity to dip a toe into what felt at the time like science fiction. I was the new kid and basically it was my job to do what Jeannie and Sue didn't want to do. But it paid so much better than the teaching job I had worked so hard to qualify for.
Even before I went back to college to get a second bachelor's degree in computer science, I was pretty sure that Apples and IBM's had just enough of a different philosophy to make this marriage a rocky one. The three of us however tinkered away like mad scientists, interrupted from time to time by real legal work and Jeannie's increased annoyance at kids playing with toys.
Needless to say, Troy, his friend and I did not become famous for the invention. It worked, in a way, but really was better at proving a concept than being a practical solution. It did serve, however, to pave the way for my later career as a programmer, then database analyst, then the long dark years in technology management and finally emerging as an analyst in my present job. It gave me the "tab A, slot B" background for understanding the inner mysteries of Computer Magic and it also gave me the confidence to know that the machine is only as smart as you tell it to be. As a programmer and DBA I later gained an appreciation for Divine Intervention in the world of computers, but for the most part there was comfort in the binary "it's either on or it's off" simplicity of the computational life.
Naturally, it's not that simple any more. The more stuff you plug into the chain of things between your question and the answer you're looking for on a computer, the more complex that simplicity has become. I laugh just as hard as you do (or not) at the promise we made to unsuspecting non-techies that computers were going to make our lives easier. I laugh every time one of the cats walks across my husband's laptop and hits the little setting that disconnects him from the network. I laugh when he roars and whines that his computer is broken. I laugh when I walk into his office and reach forward with one finger, like a magic wand, to press the one little button that solves his problem while he glares at me in disgust and disbelief. Magicians aren't always appreciated, Mr. Jobs. I'll bet you learned that too. Maybe we shouldn't laugh when we do these things. But sometimes it's funny.

"See that little blue light-y thingee?" I ask in my best Goon-techno-speak. He's a people person, not a computer person. "You're gonna wanna make sure that stays blue and if it doesn't, just touch it with your finger." This bit of wizardry repeats itself because it is repeatedly lost. I find he doesn't hear as well when he's at his wits' end. I'm pretty sure I have the same trait so I don't actually mind.
Of course, I'm really only on the fringe of being a real geek. Oh, once, a long time ago in an Illinois far, far away, I lived in the belly of the beast. I worked for a major Midwest insurance company who at the time loved its technical people. You got a rose on your birthday. You could pick your Christmas present from the company out of a catalog. The company had a private park with tennis courts, a small lake, volleyball courts, picnic areas and golf course. I traveled to exotic places like Hartford, Connecticut and Chicago for more intense IBM training, only to learn, like much of life, that if you clean up after yourself once in a while and vacuum out the dust-bunnies, your household and your computer both seem to run more smoothly. In turn for these marvelous perks, I pulled so many all-nighters recovering databases that the IBM guys thought I might have the most experience of anyone they knew performing that little task. They quickly figured out how to automate it with tools and so my dubious glory was short-lived. I think my record was 43 full forward recoveries on the Big Iron. By then I was a long way from Steve Jobs' idea of computing accessibility to mere mortals.
And then there was the dirty little secret. While I loved computer fire-fighting and had branched out into what I thought of as "preventative design" to keep others' really good ideas from going horribly wrong with one little oops, I became bored. Bored! How could I be so ungrateful? The career that more than doubled my salary a couple of times became routine. I could recover mainframe databases in my sleep. Well, I kind of had to because most of the time it was over night so that the business day wasn't interrupted.
I realized that I could concentrate on customer service, which I loved, or "chase" technology and continue to keep up with whatever the latest sexy trend in languages and hardware and database design caught the fancy of the gizmo guys. I loved all that relational vs. hierarchical debate and how far to go with normalizing data. But I wanted it to work, you know? I wanted it to be useful, to make people's lives better. It wasn't just a toy to fiddle with in the law library.
So I gave up trying to be the latest in techno-fashion and concentrated on the folly of trying to make customers happy. Ever after I have spent a lifetime of being misunderstood by my bosses, slugged by the "patients" while packing them into the ambulance and attempting to translate technical terms into something that makes sense to people who have better things to do than try to understand what a dad-blasted machine is thinking.
Here's just a little tip for people hoping to make a career out of technology and customer service: Please, whatever you do, limit your expectations of gratitude from those you are saving. The Magician is so often considered a trickster, a liar, a showman, and a thief by his admirers. Somehow, it never occurs to many people who are your loving customer base that if you have an ability you might choose to use it for good even if you had the opportunity to do otherwise. You may spend a lifetime being needed but never trusted fully. You must remember that a Magician is no one without his audience and you need them as much as they need you. That's the good news and the bad news.
For that, I'm happy we had a Jobs. RIP, Steve.
Best wishes.

Truth spells are classified as negative spells because it forces another person to do as you bid, without their knowledge. Truth be told, some of the persuasion spells were created by women because they could not or did not know how to control the men in their lives.
Males dominated most cultures and their word was command to the women of the household as well as to the children. People felt powerless and they often used persuasion and influence spells instead of bringing up conflicting issues with arrogant people. It sounds like a cowardly way of doing things, but in the old days, there was no police, no divorce courts and no children's welfare departments. Abuse was common and the fear of shaming the family kept most people silent about crimes.
It was in this environment that truth Divination and similar spells were derived. Here are some samples:
First prepare Commanding (Compelling oil)
Gather some sweet flag (calamus) and licorice. Also collect Vetiver, Oil of Bergamot. Blend the calamus and licorice to a powder and mix with Castor oil and Jojoba oil. Mix in some oil of Bergamot for more potency.
Truth Candle Spell
Gather the following:
Purple candle, Brown paper and pen,.
On a day when the moon is in its waxing phase, write down the person's name nine times on the paper. Cross over the nine names with your own name, in a crisscross manner. Place the paper on a table and stand the lighted candle on it. When you light the candle, chant:
I command you, I compel you!
I command you, I complet you!
(person) Tell me the truth!
Burn the candle for seven days an inch or so at a time. After the seven days, scrape up the leftovers and dispose it off at the crossroads near your home.
Truth Spell
Get a yellow candle and place it in a safe location in your bedroom. Dress it with the commanding and compelling oil. Light the candle and verify that there are no flammable materials near it and that it is on a safe base for support such as a ceramic, metal or glass dish.
Light the candle and watching the flame, chant:
Show me the truth
By the power of three
I conjure thee
Give the truth to me.
When you wake up in the morning, write down everything you dreamt that night.
The truth will be found in the dream.
Spell to find your true friend
Gather some basil leaves, lemon and pea, bay leaves, cinnamon sticks, hibiscus flowers and dragon's blood. Get a blue candle.
Get a fluorite stone for dream divination. Place the fluorite stone by the altar, light the candle and sit by it in meditation. Grind the herbs one by one.
As you take the herbs one by one and add them to the mix, imagine the power of each herb coursing through your body. Throw some of the herbs to the wind, burn some on a charcoal pit, mix a portion of it with some water, and bury the rest in the earth (or a potted plant).

GARDENING TIPS Our local radio station has a Thought for the Day (like Radio 4, but a local person giving it). This week it has been the turn of a elderly lady who belongs to the Bahai faith, whom I once met at a Mind Body and Spirit Fair and chatted too. I remember being most impressed by the fact that while the other stalls were all selling things - fortune telling, crystals, head massage, angel cards etc, she was the only one just giving away leaflets (if people wanted them) and taking time to talk to people (a rare commodity), and not selling anything at all (apart from her faith, and her hopes for world peace).
Today's thought for today she got from the Amish (where I managed to track it down); it has also been used by scouts and many other people. Some useful advice from an Amish publication concerning planting your garden...
First, plant 5 rows of peas: preparedness, promptness, perseverance, politeness, and prayer.
Next to them, plant 3 rows of squash: squash gossip, squash criticism, squash indifference. No garden is complete without some turnips: Turn up with a smile. Turn up with determination. Finally, how about 5 rows of lettuce? Let us be faithful. Let us be unselfish. Let us be loyal. Let us be truthful.
Let us love one another.
