In keeping with Andrew's drumbeat, "Make culture, make truthful and beautiful art..." Jonathan Pageau has made a beautiful illustrated book retelling the Snow White fairy tale *Snow White and the Widow Queen*, which is the opposite of Disney's flop. It would be good for us to pay attention to the positive things artists are doing and not let our attention get hijacked by the false and impoverished artifacts we love to hate.
My wife and I regret that we have just one child. For a number of reasons, more did not come for us, tried as we might. We're on the precipice of that child graduating from college--and as much as she is looking for a path, a career, a "purpose," I've created my own small voice and talk to her about creating a center, a loving family, and nurturing. God willing.
Love the Wordsworth allusion. I recommend The Truth and Beauty to anyone interested in the Romantic poets! Looking forward to reading The Kingdom of Cain.
When learning to ride a motorcycle, you are taught to look through the curve, meaning to keep a long distance view, avoiding the tendency to look down at the front tire, or the edge of the road, because where you look is where you end up.
Of course, this has its correlation to the eye of the tiger, an unending focus on the prey, keeping your eye on the ball in baseball to keep track of your swing, keep an eye on the goal in basketball, keeping a God-centered focus. All things to avoid losing the prize.
Look unto [God] and be ye saved, Isaiah 45, looking at the snake in Numbers 21. Look to God and live. Look to yourself and die. He who seeks to save his life shall lose it, but abandoning your life for God’s will saves it from its self-imposed oblivion. This is why Jesus was always pointing to something just beyond the horizon, not letting his disciples get distracted by the world.
Seek and ye shall find is one of those two-edged truths. It’s not surprising that the character in White Lotus wanted to become one of the Asian prostitutes. You end up where you look.

Rachel Ziegler is insufferable. I’ll pray for her.

Surly the tail can be retold as it was intended and not trip copyright infringement ?
If only there was a company that could make a good live action version of Snow White.
