Tonight I was at a friend's house;
she let me talk about that which I dreamed of doing
(i.e. writing a book,
always wanted to do this).
*
What I appreciated about this friend was not only
that she listened and supported
but did not push me overly hard about pursuing it.
*
As in I have a lot of other things that need to be tended to as well
(like finding a job so I can continue to feed and house Cleo and myself
later on this year)
but it was nice at the same time to be heard.
What a gift.
I gave Cleo a special treat on the Feast of St. Peter and Paul's
and now she is meowing her concern
and not getting treats on other non-Feast days!
Poor poor Cleo!

I am so grateful that God is loving
and has provided Saints
to also pray for us.

Found a super cool link that all Orthodox librarians would like -
And there are some
Akathists* there that I have not
seen anywhere else,
*
It does not get cooler than this for us
Orthodox librarian types
who love to collect Akathists...
*
Speaking of Akathists,
I have yet to find one to my patron Saint
in English.
I know there is one in Greek
but since I don't read Greek much
(a little since I did try studying
Koine Greek in University)
I really need an English translation...
Any and all help on this one is greatly welcomed!
had since I was chrismated...
really love this one and the deep colours...
*
Wishing everyone a peaceful night
and a blessed day tomorrow!

*when going to this link look for the AK to the right of the title for Akathists...the rest are services, not Akathists.
