"I was an Anglican and I did not know Our Lady. I was invited to a pro-life protest a few years ago by a Catholic friend of mine and during that we prayed the rosary. This was the first time I'd ever prayed it and in doing so I remember being struck to my heart by having an awareness of Mary's humility, purity and love. In comparison to what I saw going on around me, her faith in holding onto the child, in her obedience in saying yes to God. That's what strikes me: her humility, her love, her purity and her faith." ~David from England Medieval statue of Our Lady and the Holy Child from St. Louis Museum of Art, St.Louis, Missouri, USA.
A Tibetan pilgrim prostrates himself just outside the Jokhang Temple in Lhasa. You will find many pilgrims doing this here at any given time, they repeat the process many times each.
The Barkhor pilgrim circuit which goes around the Jokhang Temple is really the authentic heart of Lhasa. The Potala Palace is stunning from the outside, but it feels odd inside.
The Church of Aegidien is one of Hanover's big medieval Houses of God. It is likely that as early as in the 10th century a small chapel stood in this place. In the 12th century this chapel was replaced by an Roman basilica, whose Western wall is still preserved to some extend. In the year 1347 the construction of the Gothic hall church began. By the way, this church was the heart of the Reformation movement in Hanover.
In 1943 the church was destroyed during heavy air bombardments and only its outer walls survived. Today, the impressive ruins are a memorial for the victims of wars and violence. The Hanoverian sculptor Professor Lehmann created the sculpture 'Humility', which kneels inside the confines of the ruins.
There remain remnants of C17th and C18th gravestones and memorials visible around the outside of the walls.
The Bell of Peace in the passage way is a present made by the Twin Town Hiroshima in 1985. A ceremony is held annually on 6 August, during which the bell is rung to commemorate the dropping of the first atom bomb on Hiroshima.
If there is any advice Col. Kirk Gibbs can give to his successor, it is this: Lead with honor and humility.
As Gibbs, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Los Angeles District’s 61st commander, prepares to relinquish command of the LA District July 19 to Col. Aaron Barta, he offered up some advice and reflected on the past three years as the leader of one of the largest Corps districts in the country.
There are many things Gibbs said he is proud of when it comes to the LA District, but three things stand out: the District being recognized two years in a row as a "Best Place to Work" in the Corps; completing Weed Army Hospital at Fort Irwin, California – the Department of Defense’s only Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design-Platinum, carbon-neutral, net-zero certifiable hospital – on time and within budget; and the one-on-one time he was able to spend with employees in the District.
It is the people Gibbs said he will miss the most – the employees and the District’s close partners across the four-state area.
“I have never focused on relationships like I have here in this District, and I sincerely believe it is part of the District's culture,” he said. “When projects are tough, the close relationships get us through those challenges and ultimately deliver the program.”
During his time with the LA District, Gibbs has overseen a multimillion-dollar program that provides engineering, construction, planning, contracting, real estate, emergency operations, environmental and regulatory services to military, federal, state and local governments across a 226,000-square-mile area of Southern California, Nevada, Arizona and Utah. That also includes leading about 750 military and civilian personnel with a wide array of expertise.
But leading people is nothing new to Gibbs, who has served for more than 24 years as an active-duty Soldier, leading both military and civilian personnel.
“Each person is different, and I have learned that good leaders get to know each person individually and then lead them in a way that brings out the best in that employee,” he said.
Providing priorities and a solid intent on the District’s missions, particularly disaster response operations, helps employees stay focused on what’s really important, he said.
Gibbs will now serve as the chief of staff at the Corps’ headquarters in Washington, D.C. There, he said, he hopes to be an advocate for all of the Corps’ districts nationwide.
“I feel that this District and the great people are responsible for giving me the incredible opportunity of being the Corps’ chief of staff,” he said. “The people have taught me so much, and I will take that with me to make a positive impact on the Corps’ enterprise and help our Districts deliver our programs in civil works, military, Interagency and International Services, real estate and regulatory.”
Gibbs knows how the importance of mentors and having a good support system have played in shaping his career, and he credits his parents with instilling in him respect for others; his wife, Kim, who taught him to endure all challenges, no matter how great, with grace and dignity; and his former chief of staff – Col. Steve Hill – for giving him tough jobs to prepare him for success.
“(Hill) gave me tough jobs that I thought he could have done at the time, but as I look back, the toughest assignments he gave me in that civilian organization at the Corps headquarters prepared me for District command and enabled me to achieve the goal of commanding at the battalion, brigade and District levels,” he said. “I also remember he told me I would be a chief of staff for the Corps one day. He was preparing me for that. I didn't believe him, but that is my next job.”
And, as for additional advice he can share with Barta, Gibbs provided these words of wisdom:
- Be prepared to change leadership style when leading a District of professional civilians. Don't lead them in the same way as Soldiers;
- Engage with people and get around to see them across the District's entire area of operation. Don't sit behind a desk;
- Study hard initially and learn the policies, processes and programs. “You will never be the expert, but you must prepare yourself to make effective decisions as quickly as possible”;
- Always provide a commander's intent and an end state. The civilian workforce appreciates that; and, lastly,
- Lead with honor and humility. “It isn't about you. It is about the District's people and our vital mission.”
As for the future of the LA District, Gibbs said he hopes future leaders continue to change the culture to an organization that is more risk tolerant in streamlining processes and moving projects forward; deliver the Department of Veterans Affairs and Customs and Border Protection programs phenomenally – on time, within budget and to the highest quality; and to remain a "Best Place to Work" in order to retain and recruit talent to the high-cost living area of Southern California.
“I want the District to do what it always does and ‘knock those programs out of the park,’” he said.
Posted on the first anniversary of the shootings in Tucson, Arizona on January 8, 2010 -
"We've seen a national conversation commence, not only about the motivations behind these killings, but about everything from the merits of gun safety laws to the adequacy of our mental health systems. Much of this process, of debating what might be done to prevent such tragedies in the future, is an essential ingredient in our exercise of self-government.
"But at a time when our discourse has become so sharply polarized - at a time when we are far too eager to lay the blame for all that ails the world at the feet of those who think differently than we do -- it's important for us to pause for a moment and make sure that we are talking with each other in a way that heals, not a way that wounds.
". . . As we discuss these issues, let each of us do so with a good dose of humility. Rather than pointing fingers or assigning blame, let us use this occasion to expand our moral imaginations, to listen to each other more carefully, to sharpen our instincts for empathy, and remind ourselves of all the ways our hopes and dreams are bound together,"
~ President Barack Obama, January 12, 2010
Just to see if it was possible, I printed a very limited edition of posters on my Arab platen. That accounts for the need to fold the sheet – it would not fit onto the platen flat. The type is 10-line sans in wood, from Hayloft Press run by the late David Wishart.

As an exercise in humility the Black Nun wished to be buried where everyone entering the Friary would walk upon her remains
Bonamargy Friary is supposedly haunted by the ghost of the Black Nun, Julia McQuillan, who lived there alone after the Friary fell out of use in 1641.
There is a common story that the Black Nun was murdered on the steps leading to the upper floor of the Friary while looking out the slit window. Legend has it that bad luck will befall anyone who walks on the step where she fell. (check out the photo of the steps - the one that is third from top is the step where she is supposed to have been murdered. It is untrodden and unworn
compared to the others)

The village of Brushford, Somerset, lies just over one mile south of Dulverton.
The parish church of Saint Nicholas as seen today probably dates from the 13th century, although the Norman font hints at an earlier foundation.
The church has a number of stained glass windows. This photograph shows a window in the north wall of the church dedicated to the memory of George Frederick White who died in 1898. The window has the figures representing Fortitude, Humility and Justice. Under each figure is a scene from the Bible illustrating the quality represented by the figure. The verse in the dedication is taken from Micah vi : 8.
February 2012 - I have discovered the record of the marriage of George Frederick White and Katherine Maria Kennedy which took place at Belgard Castle, Clondalkin, near Dublin Ireland in 1880. Katherine Maria White, nee Kennedy, is commemorated by the 'White' window in the South wall of the church.

Chris Kelly's bronze sculpture in Duke Street, Barrow-in-Furness, of former Great Britain and Barrow rugby league stand-off Willie Horne. Horne played 461 games for Barrow between 1943 and 1959. He scored 1,818 points and captained the Shipbuilders in three Wembley Challenge Cup finals, lifting the trophy in 1955 after a 21-12 victory over Workington Town. He also skippered Lancashire, England and Great Britain, and was awarded a testimonial by Barrow in 1955. Horne died in 2001 at the age of 79, six years after being made a Freeman of the Borough of Barrow-in-Furness. The sculpture, depicting Horne in full flight, is opposite the main entrance to Barrow RLFC's Craven Park ground. It was unveiled in May 2004 by Steven Broomhead, chief executive of the North West Development Agency.
A plaque at the base of the sculpture details Horne's glittering playing career and numerous rugby league achievements, before concluding: Willie is regarded by many as the greatest stand-off half of his generation, and by some as the finest of all time. A quiet hero, he was revered throughout the global rugby league community but most of all here, in his own back yard, where he was both idolised as a sporting genius and respected for being a decent man. It is fitting that this memorial stands here, just a drop-kick away from Craven Park where his sublime artistry baffled the best defences in the world and thrilled the roaring terraces of the post-war era. Talented and even gifted rugby league footballers the world shall yet see, but for us there can only ever be one Willie Horne, a unique man with magic in his fingers and humility in his heart.

Hochmut and Demut
Two key concepts for understanding Amish practices are their rejection of Hochmut (pride, arrogance, haughtiness) and the high value they place on Demut or "humility" and Gelassenheit (German, meaning: calmness, composure, placidity) — often translated as "submission" or "letting-be," but perhaps better understood as a reluctance to be forward, self-promoting, or to assert oneself in any way. The willingness to submit to the Will of God, as expressed through group norms, is at odds with the individualism so central to the wider American culture. The Amish anti-individualist orientation is the motive for rejecting labor-saving technologies that might make one less dependent on community; or which, like electricity, might start a competition for status-goods; or which, like photographs, might cultivate individual or family vanity. It is also the proximate cause for rejecting education beyond the eighth grade, especially speculative study that has little practical use for farm life but may awaken personal and materialistic ambitions. The emphasis on competition and the uncritical assumption that self-reliance is a good thing — both cultivated in American high schools and exalted as an American ideal — are in direct opposition to core Amish values.
Separation from the outside world
The Amish often cite three Bible verses that encapsulate their cultural attitudes:
"Be not yoked with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?" (II Corinthians 6:14)
"Come out from among them and be ye separate, saith the Lord." (II Corinthians 6:17)
“And be ye not conformed to this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” (Romans 12:2)
Both out of concern for the effect of a parent's absence on family life, and in order to minimize contact with "English" (everyone not of German descent), the Amish prefer to work at home. However, increased prices for farmland and decreasing revenues for low-tech farming have forced many Amish to work away from the farm, particularly in construction and factory-labor, and, in those areas where there is a significant tourist trade, to engage in shopwork and crafts for profit. The Amish are ambivalent about both the consequences of this contact and the commoditization of their culture. The decorative arts play little role in authentic Amish life (though the prized Amish quilts are a genuine cultural inheritance, unlike hex signs), and are in fact regarded with suspicion, as a field where egotism and a display of vanity can easily develop.
O God, we have intense Reverence for You.
You may be invisible in our eyes,
But Your mighty good deeds to touch our Heart is ever-powerful!
We bow in utmost sincerity to seek Your mercy.
We seek Your forgiveness O God!
Please look upon us renewed sinners for we need You.
We are nothing without You O God,
And to You we all depend.
For You O God is the source of our Salvation.
Amen.
O God, thank You for loving fathers.
For they are grateful to God for the Gift of Life.
As the greatest gifts we receive from our fathers is affection and warmth.
As the meek and gentle hands of our father lifts us up.
To carry us as helpless babies.
To bring joys, gladness and laughter.
That fathers may be humble to be as gentle as their own babies.
To bring meekness and gentleness throughout Humanity.
For Humility is the source of strength of loving fathers.
Amen.
...there is nothing noble in being superior to some other man. The true nobility is in being superior to your previous self. - W. L. Sheldon

Das Oratorium wurde von der Compagnia della Madonna del Rosario 1574 innerhalb des Klosterkomplexes der Dominikaner eingerichtet. Der Eingang befindet sich in der Via Bambinai nur wenige Schritte von der Kirche San Domenico an der gleichnamigen Piazza entfernt.
Der Gebetsraum wurde von Giacomo Serpotta (Palermo 1656 – 1732) in den Jahren 1714 – 1717 mit aufwändigen Stuckaturen mit Szenen aus dem Alten Testament, der Apokalypse und der Legende um Maria mit dem Rosenkranz sowie figürlichen Allegorien der Tugenden ausgestattet.
