I know she’s old news fir everyone else but I finally have mine in hand and she‘sso cool, especially the henna tattoos!

A boss in the vault of the Divinity school, Oxford.

My world is so upside down. Sometimes I catch myself truly wishing I could fast forward a year from now. I get so anxious, what will I be doing today a year from now? . . .But I shouldn't, I should be reveling in what is life right now, today. Something's been bothering me today and yesterday. I recently heard about a teen death of someone I hardly even knew except went to the same school with. .I don't even know how or what happened. But it's scary. I'm scared. And it's not like we as a society aren't used to our mortality being shoved in our own faces, but when it's someone your own age, who's only in high school, it's petrifying. Because it could happen to any of us, at any second. Some before they even have a chance to leave anything behind. And it's pure arrogance to think that it couldn't happen to you. . .why not? Are you or I so divine to this place? Does everything really happen for a reason? That's not fair. That's almost heartless to compare anothers life to your own and render it not "useful" or not "destined" to be here.

 

...Or is that the only explanation keeping us sane?

 

That we should put it in our minds so to keep the fear away. . .Well I won't do that.

Because I see that fear as a good thing. A constant reminder that I can't just sit down

and waste time day by day. That I will make something of myself in this world and that

I will make a real CHANGE in this world. That I will live each day like it is my last. .I don't

have a death wish, nor am I a negative person. I actually want to live until 110! And I

plan on that! I'm not advocating recklessness, just for that fire in our hearts to keep

burning. . .Isn't it ironic that for most humans, we work, fight, and LIVE harder when

we think our existence is in jeopardy? When it's for the sake of our survival? I'll never

live in fear because I do believe in some higher place out there, and I hope to spend it

with those dearest to my heart one day. And if there's one thing I have to say or get off my chest here or some point I truly want to make right now this second is,

 

I am so grateful, for my life.

 

. . .And I will never take that or my health or the one's I love existence and health for granted. I will MAKE a reason, a PURPOSE for this life, and it will be AMAZING. In honor of those who never had a chance. Because any of those people could have been me or someone I loved. Last year I had a near death experience a few days after my birthday, my mom was there, too. And that night as I walked out without more than a few scratch & bruises I promised then that I would LIVE FREE. And experience all this life has to offer. And never give up the fight, for survival, for happiness, and the love I have for this world. That I would fulfill my hopes and dreams and be fearless. Because when it's our time, lights will guide us home.

  

...I love you Adam, when you read this.<3

A reception was held at Andover-Harvard Theological Library in Cambridge, Mass. on Wednesday, April 22, 2015 for the opening of the exhibition of historic documents from its archives. The exhibit, which spans three floors of the library, opens to the public on April 23 and will be on display through the end of July 2015. Titled "75 Years of Service: UUSC, 1940-2015," the display is drawn from the library's official archives of some 260 boxes of documents and images, starting with UUSC's heralded work rescuing European refugees during World War II.

 

The first floor case contains a timeline highlighting some of the UUSC’s programs and projects throughout its history, along with a sneak peak into the content found on our second and third floors. The third floor space focuses on the UUSC’s work with the Navajo in the 1950s, in the Awo Omamma village in Nigeria from the late 1950s to the 1970s, and in Central America in the 1970s and 1980s. These images and documents offer only a glimpse into the UUSC’s human rights and relief efforts in these countries.

The Chapel of St Ninian was built at the same time as Mar Lodge and has always been closely associated with the various owners of Mar Lodge. The foundation stone of Mar Lodge was laid by Queen Victoria on the 15th October 1895. The house was to be her grand-daughter's (Princess Louise) home when she married the 6th Earl Fife. It was completed in 1898.

 

Immediately after St Ninians Chapel was built the first Duke of Fife (elevated to Dukedom on his marriage to Princess Louise) made a disposition conveying the ownership of St Ninians Chapel to the right Reverend Father in God, Arthur Gascoigne Douglas, Doctor of Divinity, Bishop of Aberdeen and Orkney in the Episcopal Church of Scotland. The disposition was registered in Edinburgh on the 14th January 1899. At that time St Ninians became the property of the Diocese of Aberdeen and Orkney and ahs remained so ever since. It was used as a Private chapel until it passed out of the ownership of Princess Alexandra, Duchess of Fife when she died in 1959. There are no surviving records of services held during the time the chapel was in private use.

 

The architect of both Mar Lodge and St Ninians Chapel was Alexander Marshall McKenzie of Aberdeen. His appointment was to all accounts due to the fact that Queen Victoria thought so highly of the design of Crathie Church (1893) that she recommended him to the 1st Duke of Fife.

 

The dressed stone used came from the Hill of Fare, Banchory and the undressed stone from the quarry at the top of Chapel Brae, Braemar. The timber was from local Caledonian Pine.

In every breath, a universe unfolds,

Each atom a testament, ancient and bold.

In rivers that flow, in mountains that rise,

The divine essence, a silent guise.

From the flutter of wings to the stars' dance above,

All intertwined in a tapestry of love.

"The Tempio di Castore e Polluce (or Tempio dei Dioscuri) is probably Agrigento's most iconic temple, even a symbol of Classical Sicily. Unfortunately, it is misleading, because the northwest corner of which is in a modern reconstruction from 1836, created using pieces from various other temples. It includes four columns and a portion of the entablature. The traces of stucco are original. The temple itself measured 31 m × 13.39 m (101.7 ft × 43.9 ft), and would likely have been a Doric peripteral with 6 x 13 columns, dating to about the mid-5th century BC."

 

The Dioscuri twin brothers, Castor and Pollux, were sons of Leda and Zeus, who transformed himself into a swan to seduce her.

 

The temple rises inside the sanctuary of the chthonic divinities (Demeter and Core) and is therefore likely to have been built in honor of these deities and not of Castor and Pollux (the Dioscuri).
