We are what we are. Nothing more, nothing less. There is good and evil among every kind of people. It's the evil among us who rule now. -Anne Bishop, Daughter of the Blood
I wondered if he could ever understand that it was a blessing, not a sin, to be graced with more than one love.
It could be complicated; of course it could be complicated. And it opened one up to the possibility of more pain and loss.
Still, it was a blessing I would never relinquish. Love, genuine love, was always a cause for joy.
-Jacqueline Carey, Naamah's Curse
Service to your fellows is the root of peace.

- The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant compared to the power of the Force.
Life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.
Yoda: Dark Rendezvous
"But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."
John Rowlands, The Grey King by Susan Cooper
"You come from the Lord Adam and the Lady Eve", said Aslan. "And that is both honour enough to erect the head of the poorest beggar, and shame enough to bow the shoulders of the greatest emperor on earth; be content."

Re: Things that make you smile
My husband got a job! He's going to be a data engineer for an auto parts company in the new year! Basically, it means that he'll be programming tools for data analysis and presentation.
I also got a Christmas bonus from my work. I've been supporting both of us on my salary (and I work part-time for a non-profit, so it's not a huge salary by any means), so the extra money is super helpful.
Honestly, it all feels like a Christmas miracle.

Re: Things that make you smile
A couple of foreclosed homeowners in Naples, Fla., reportedly foreclosed on a Bank of America branch last week. Their attorney had moving trucks pull up in front of a Naples branch to execute a judgment against the bank.
This made my morning. Also, don't ignore court orders. It doesn't end well even if you are a giant ass bank.Life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness.
