Hard To Let Go 

March 9, 1907

President Roosevelt has the pig of Corporate Interests (A useful creature but perverse) tied by one leg and hits it to keep it running; Shaw and Foraker watch.

The caption reads: 'It may be hard for the president to turn over his job to a successor when his time is up'.

Roosevelt greatly enjoyed being president, and it was continually rumored that he would run again. Shaw and Foraker were two potential candidates who had begun working to run for the office.

Send ✨ for a screenshot associated with magic or aether. - for Thea! I miss them!

She had a way of embroidering her life with stars.

L.M. Montgomery, "Old Man Shaw's Girl" (Chronicles of Avonlea)

Anthea spent quite some time trying to figure out what their strength was in so they could go traveling with the boys but was unsuccessful in other pursuits until they, in a moment of panic, enacted a barrier of healing and protection with little thought. They soon developed a specialization utilizing what would in the future be known as dynamis.

While Anthea has a natural high aptitude for aether, they also had the unconscious ability to manipulate dynamis and its the reason why the Elpis flower came to be and why none of their creations were ever the same or why things had a habit of changing with the smallest single stray thought. They never learned of this as the one person to be the most knowledgeable on the subject matter had pestered them with so many questions about the Elpis flower Anthea took to steering clear if possible as they had nothing to offer.

The outfit that Anthea wears was actually designed by Deimos in preparation for the day they would be able to go out on their adventures. He tried to keep it as robe like as possible while allowing for freedom of movement, sandals to better feel the earth around them, and the diadem was something he made himself using some of the flower braiding techniques he first taught them not long after becoming the official Azem successor. The globe was something that Anthea created but could never get to work until Emet and Hyth stepped in and determined that they were drawing some power from the upper most aether currents making a glass that could easily look to the heavens. (In bird parent au this is something that Anthea and Meteion use eventually to check in with her sisters since their connection was severed with input from Hermes. Before that though it was used to simply take in the night sky and always had Meteion entranced and become more comfortable with the vastness of it)

And Old Man Shaw looked silently at the sunset - or, rather, through the sunset to still grander and more radiant splendours beyond, of which the things seen were only the pale reflections, not worthy of attention from those who had the gift of further sight.

133, 95 ✨

Alexxxxxx thanks for asking 😘

133. A book that you came across randomly and fell in love with

This is such a good one and I have to think, since I find most of my books now through Goodreads or professional reviews while ordering for work. Hm....

I'm gonna go with this one, mostly because I can't remember how or where I first heard about it (also I fucking love it)

Strange Practice by Vivian Shaw

This book is so unique. It has the flavor of fan fiction in the BEST possible way, and what I mean by that is that the characters and their relationships take center stage. There is an interesting plot (a mystery, even!) at the heart of this cozy supernatural novel, but really it's secondary to how much time you'll want to spend with Dr. Greta Hellsing and her circle of friends, human, vamp, and otherwise. There are sequels that I love at least as much, and I just want to move into Ruthven's London house and stay there forever.

95. Your favourite coming of age novel

Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery

Always, always this one.

[thebirdandhersong]

1, 4, 9, And 16 for the book asks? :D <3

Thank you, Magpie <3<3

a book that is close to your heart:

Just one?? :'O Well, the most recent ones I've re-read are Middlemarch (George Eliot) and Anne of the Island (L.M. Montgomery). I liked Middlemarch when I first read it, but I loved it the second time around. And Anne of the Island is a forever favourite.

a poetry book that reads like a story:

I haven't read many poetry books in the past few years, actually, so I can't really answer this one..... Most recently I've read Luci Shaw (from her Green Earth collection) and Wendell Berry (his Sabbath poems), both of whom I would highly recommend!! Many of their poems talk about the grandeur of God and the beauty in His creation, and both of them make me want to start writing poetry again.

your favourite book of 2020:

Great Expectations (Charles Dickens)

Jack Frost: The End Becomes the Beginning (William Joyce)

Mansfield Park (Jane Austen)

Leave it to Psmith (P.G. Wodehouse)

Guards! Guards! (Terry Pratchett)

There are five favourites on this list because 2020 was a really good reading year. These are books that 1) I read for the first time in 2020, and 2) began, strengthened, or ended a reading journey. Great Expectations ignited a new interest in Dickens (I went on to read two of his other books in 2020, and completely fell in love with David Copperfield this year!!). Jack Frost is the last book in Joyce's Guardians of Childhood series (which was loosely adapted into the Rise of the Guardians movie). (I've been waiting for the last installment since high school. It was not what I expected at all, but I thought it was a pretty good conclusion to the series.) I read a number of Austen books for the first time in 2020, and was expecting to dislike Mansfield Park after hearing a Lot about it, but ended up Absolutely Loving it. Leave it to Psmith was my introduction to the Psmith series (and is still my favourite of the bunch). And Guards! Guards! started me on a Discworld rampage.

a book you’d recommend to your younger self:

I think I should've started on Wodehouse and Pratchett a LOT sooner, to be honest!!!

They Have Made Their Mark 

March 5, 1907

Shonts, Stevens, Shaw, and Spooner head toward New York from Capitol Hill; all the S's in their names are dollar signs. They carry cases such as Pres. Of Traction Company, Head Engineer, R.R. Law, Pres. of Carnegie Trust.

The caption reads "The dollar sign has them on the go."

All of the men had resigned public office to make more money in private life.

Quotes for Sunday January 29,2017

Heaven quotes Let heaven fill your thoughts instead. Because when you do, everything on earth gets placed in its proper perspective.  Greg Laurie The Kingdom of Heaven is not a religion and has nothing at all to do with religion. Myles Munroe, Wisdom from Myles Munroe One of these days we will see him “face-to-face.”   Until then, we get to walk with Him on this side of heaven. John Juneman, LifeMessage 365 Every trouble that you are facing today, every sorrow and despair, look up into the Heavens and feel the Divine protection of your Creator. Patricia A Gilpin-Hudson; Carol R Muschette, Find Joy in Daily Living   Heaven on earth is a reality for me by faith. Alex Uwajeh, The Power of Positive Affirmations ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hope quotes Hope is a waking dream.--Aristotle Hope is generally a wrong guide, though it is good company along the way.--George Saville Hope is like a road in the country: there was never a road, but when many people walk on it, the road comes into existence.--Lin Yutang Hope is love's happiness, but not its life.--Letitia E. Landon Hope is not a granted wish or a favor performed; no it is far greater than that. It is a zany, unpredictable dependence on a God who loves to surprise us out of our socks.--Max Lucado (God Came Near) Hope...is the companion of power, and the mother of success; for who so hopes has within him the gift of miracles.--Samuel Smiles ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Perseverance quotes When you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot in it and hang on! ~Author Unknown Consider the postage stamp: its usefulness consists in the ability to stick to one thing till it gets there. ~Josh Billings The greatest oak was once a little nut who held its ground. ~Author Unknown Fall seven times, stand up eight. ~Japanese Proverb Perseverance is the hard work you do after you get tired of doing the hard work you already did. ~Newt Gingrich ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Memories quotes We don't remember days; we remember moments. -Cesare Pavese Nothing is ever really lost to us as long as we remember it. -L.M.
