“Gratitude bestows reverence, allowing us to encounter every day
epiphanies, those trancendent moments of awe that change forever how we
experience life and the world.”

One Last Little Collage & A Giveaway
.
I’m going to give this little postcard collage away today. I’m
going to leave it somewhere in Eufaula, as a random act of kindness. If
you find it… it’s yours! I hope whoever finds it will let me know
where it ended up.

John Milton
.
John Milton (1608–1674) is often regarded as one of England’s greatest poets, second only to Shakespeare. Best known for his magnum opus Paradise Lost,
Milton was also one of history’s most politically active writers. A
radical Protestant and staunch republican, he served as Latin secretary
to Oliver Cromwell during the Commonwealth and throughout his life wrote
eloquent treatises on topics including divorce, freedom of the press,
kingship, and education. This extensive look at Milton’s life and ethos
addresses the psychological complexities and political tenets of the man
who dared to put words in God’s mouth, and whose life was spared
following the restoration of the monarchy due only to his reputation as a
poet.
