How shall I not weep when I think of death? For I have seen my brother in his coffin, without glory or comeliness. What, then, do I expect? And what do I hope for? Only grant me, O Lord, repentance before the end.

Real sane. I was joking because Michal, in usual fashion, thinks its more sane to not wear a headscarf. Alpo pointed out that they had long skirts, and I was repeating Michal's comment but in reference to the long skirts. Sorry.  |

Saw this on Facebook just now: Am I seeing "hearts" in the design? I wonder how long that design has been used.  After the feeding of the four thousand we read in Matthiew 15: And he sent away the multitude, and took ship, and came into the coasts of Magdala. Matt 15:39 Magala was the home of Mary Magdalene and recently archaeologists discovered there a Synagogue from the time of Jesus. This stone which probably served as a table to set the scroll of the Torah was found in the excavation. This could be the Synagogue where Mary worshipped.

 Presentation of a book about Antychowicze family from Bielsk Podlaski. A representative of 10th generation described within it reviews it. She's also a daughter of my parish's choir conductor (in the red dress). |

They were used as templates for actual stained glass somewhere else. Someone just didn't want to throw them away after they had been used.

Even if it were stained glass, I have no idea by what determination that would be considered "well done" given the size of the "glass". |
