Today is the feast of the virgin-martyr, Agnes, who is just one letter away from the Latin agnus which means "lamb". Oddly enough, in ASCII, this is a prime example of "a bit of difference" - or as our Lord said, the "smallest part of a letter", since:
"e" is 0110 0101, and
"u" is 0111 0101.
Very interesting.
So in honour of her feast, I thought I would post the third story of Sister Mary Gabriel, which is called Underpainting in Gray.
Wow ... wow.
ReplyDeleteI had never read any of these nun stories before, except one that was really a Joe story. Your style changes in these, and I think in a good way -- it's very nunly. It reminds me of real accounts that saints write of their visions: simple, descriptive, but humble and not putting on any airs.
Thinking about it, I think this may be my favorite of your stories I've read so far. Not the longest, but very Wow.
