You Cannot Take It All. Offer. Sacrifice Does Not Kill, But Preserve, Make It Holy. Until Wings Turn

You cannot take it all. Offer. Sacrifice does not kill, but preserve, make it holy. Until wings turn into a cross. However noble, if we do things on our own, we are the enemies of grace. Odysseus was noble. Nevertheless Dante put him in hell, precisely for that reason. Hell is based on justice. Heaven is grace. Nobody deserves it.

Ewa Chrusciel, from "is there something down by the water keeping itself from us", Strata

Iced coffee latte and current read. I kinda misplaced my retro coloured midliner highlighter somewhere at home.

It Is 1:30 AM, You Are Feeling Anxious And Not Productive, So You Bake A Cake And Try At Least, Finishing

It is 1:30 AM, you are feeling anxious and not productive, so you bake a cake and try at least, finishing one assignment. I remind you that be gentle to yourself, you are trying hard till you lose sleep. You need that rest to replenish energy used. It is okay to slow down. You are doing great.
