My place beside you, my blood for yours.
I am Havalah Ruth Peirce, someone who remembers who she is, lets other pens dwell on guilt and misery, and likes good, strong words that mean something.

Quote of the week
“The keys of doctrine / which unlock all of Scripture’s books, / have opened up before my eyes / the book of creation… / This is a book which, above its companions, / has in its narrative / made the Creator perceptible / and transmitted His actions; / it has envisioned all His craftsmanship, / made manifest His works of art.”
—Saint Ephrem the Syrian, Hymns on Paradise
