#repost @jesus.cisneros.ilustrador  Jesús Cisneros (Mexico).  This, part of an open-air exhibit organized by the city government and transit agency of Zaragoza, Spain, is an illustration of the text of the poet Jesús Jiménez Domínguez (@jesus_jimenez_dominguez) entitled 'El baile': "Someone on a balcony plays Beethoven'due south 'Hymn to Joy' with a trumpet. At that place is no joy in the streets. The urban center is deserted. A mighty endmost drowns the music, but not the ambulance sirens. However, at the height of the Theater of the Corners, the gale tapers, goes from tiger to cat, plays with two abased plastic gloves. 1 of them invites the other to dance. Gloves spin and dance in the air similar jellyfish. Then, exhausted but relieved, the ghosts of recent life, the hopes of the future, bid farewell with an invisible handshake. "  [Original castilian:  "Alguien, en united nations balcón, interpreta con una trompeta el 'Himno a la alegría' de Beethoven. Alegría no hay en las calles. La ciudad está desierta. Un cierzo caudaloso ahoga la música, pero no las sirenas de las ambulancias. Sin embargo, a la altura del Teatro de las Esquinas, el ventarrón se amansa, pasa de tigre a gato, juguetea con dos guantes de plástico abandonados. Uno de ellos invita al otro a bailar. Giran y danzan los guantes en el aire como medusas. Luego, exhaustos pero aliviados, se despiden con un apretón de manos invisibles los fantasmas de la vida reciente, las esperanzas del futuro".]

To call and be called by name is itself a revelation.

Our name, along with our wound, records u.s.a. in the world. And in our identity rests our vulnerable mortal limits. If we tin can be recognized, then nosotros can be wounded. Where we have been marked is where the soft spot of our beingness is, where nosotros are most finite . . . Our proper noun is possibly our Achilles' heel, the spot in which we are well-nigh mortal, most identifiable.

If a proper noun spoken one time is a claim, / twice is the claim undone. / Twice is dearest.

i'm happy i could help! :~) all these books i read in less than iii days, which is how i marking for myself if information technology'southward an piece of cake read lol. i'm still trying to work on my attending span: if i have a book on the go for a calendar week i kind of lose interest, which means i am reading smaller books atm..

south and west // joan didion (peradventure this is enjoyable for joan stans only because it actually is notebook scraps just i liked information technology a lot)

filthy animals // brandon taylor (interconnected brusque stories)

jesus' son // denis johnson (vaguely interconnected short stories)

the minotaur takes a cigarette break // steven sherrill (book of the year for me already lol, not necessarily curt but then enjoyable that i read it fast)

close range // annie proulx (brusk stories, incl. brokeback mount!)

my year of balance and relaxation // otessa moshfegh (non actually very short, merely i read information technology fast once i got into it)

ten little indians // sherman alexie (short stories)

sharp objects // gillian flynn (again not super curt but just an incredibly good read)

faraway places // tom spanbauer (novella, like 100 pages, and if you like the audio of this one you should check out a longer book of his called 'the man who brutal in love with the moon')

picnic at hanging rock // joan lindsey (novella)

the house on mango street // sandra cisneros (novella)

a natural history of transition // callum angus (short stories)

in general i as well similar chuck palahniuk books because they're pretty pulpy fast reads, and poetry collections are a fun way to become some reading done also. i like frank o'hara, dylan thomas, patti smith, and allen ginsberg. if you become the eastward-book route, here's a very useful website where you can download them (for gratuitous) (well i donated a minor amount so that the site can ship the books directly to my kindle just that'southward optional). hopefully some of these catch your eye, allow me know how information technology goes!! :~)

whale of a middle

Heart of a blue whale Its mass is 600 kilograms Its weight is 5880 Nm Its veins are so large that you tin can swim in them And information technology pumps 1000 liters of blood into each heartbeat And beats 7 times a minute Its pulses are heard from 20 miles away

God Breaks the Centre Once again and Again Until It Stays Open after a quote from Sufi Inayat Khan But what if my heart is a 7-Eleven after its third daytime robbery in a week? What if my heart is a piñata trashed to tissue and peppermint shrapnel? What if my heart is a peeled mango begetting an emerald housefly? What if my heart is an air conditioner weeping a rosary of rusty tears? What if my centre is Sebastião Salgado��s sinkhole swallowing some other child? What if my center is Death Valley in wide-view Cinemascope? What if my heart is a chupacabrón chanting, Build the wall? What if my centre is the creepy uncle'south yawning zipper? What if my heart is a Pentecostal babbling a river of tongues? What if my heart is the cross-eyed Jesus bought at the Poteet flea market? What if my center is El Paso, Texas, in bed with the corpse of Ciudad Juárez? What if my heart is unhinged from the weight of its lice-ridden wings? What then for an encore, oh my soul, when yous have blessed me a hundredfold? [Thanks Candace]

A new verse form from Sandra Cisneros, the author, most recently, of the poetry collection "My Wicked Wicked Ways", and "A House of My Own: Stories From My Life."

You Bring Out the Bronx In Me (excerpt in the style of Sandra Cisneros' Y'all Bring Out the Mexican In Me)

You bring out the Bronx in me

Not the Riverdale that my mother always says we're well-nigh

But the Kingsbridge Heights in me

The up til three merely dancing on the street corner

The smoke on the fire escape turned makeshift balcony,

the style the breathe carried all the heavy of the 24-hour interval from my lungs

You bring out the home in me

The hood in me

The "why have information technology home when nosotros can fight right here"

And why say why that I'k hurt when I can call you lot a bitch

You bring out the bowwow in me

The dog in me

The survivor in me

The bite and the bark in me

The leashed creature in me

We fight to the decease and then sleep it off

You lot bring out the heathen in me

All conventionalities in rebirth

All "if nosotros tin make it through today,

We can first anew tomorrow"

All "I can forgive yous if you promise

Tomorrow you will wipe both our slates clean"

You bring out the optimist in me

The forgiveness in me

The pardon in me

You bring out the Jesus in me.

Our Life is in Christ

by Aiden Wilson Tozer

Certainly not all of the mystery of the Godhead can be known by man-simply just equally certainly, all that men can know of God in this life is revealed in Jesus Christ! When the Apostle Paul said with yearning, "That I may know Him," he was not speaking of intellectual noesis. Paul was speaking of the reality of an feel of knowing God personally and consciously, spirit touching spirit and heart touching heart. We know that people spend a lot of time talking nigh a deeper Christian life-simply few seem to desire to know and beloved God for Himself. The precious fact is that God is the deeper life! Jesus Christ Himself is the deeper life, and every bit I plunge on into the knowledge of the triune God, my heart moves on into the blessedness of His fellowship. This means that at that place is less of me and more of God-thus my spiritual life deepens and I am strengthened in the cognition of His will!

Isabel de Cisneros (between 1660 and 1670-1714) was a painter of the Quito Schoolhouse in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth century in Ecuador. She was the girl of the well known painter Miguel de Santiago (who was from a mestizo family and originally had the final name "Vizuete," and took the proper name "de Santiago" from Hernando de Santiago, the man who adopted him later on he was orphaned) and the Castilian woman Andrea Cisneros y Alvarado. While she used the proper name de Cisneros, she is often known ameliorate as Isabel de Santiago. She painted from her youth in her father's workshop to her expiry in Quito, after which she was buried in the convent of La Merced. She mayhap collaborated with her father on his famous Milagros de la Virgen serial. She received fame and acclaim for her beautiful artwork and is one of the nearly famous women artists of colonial Latin America. She was married twice, first to Juan Merino de la Rosa, and second to Antonio Egas and Venegas de Córdoba, with whom she had children; Agustín, María Mónica, Nicolás Fortunato, Antonio and María Tomasa.

The first image is her "Virgen de Carmen," the second is her "Archangel Gabriel," and the third is her "Hogar de Nazaret." One of her near famous paintings was a no longer extant portrait of the nun Sor Juana de Jesus, which, according to people who knew Sor Juana, resembled her very well. Like many of her contemporaries, she focused largely on religious subjects for her artwork. She was well known for her usage of bright colors, floral imagery, and animals in her paintings.

Prayer of St Catherine of Siena, who incorporates St Paul on the religion of our Lord Jesus in 2 Timothy 2:13 into her prayer: "if nosotros are faithless, he remains faithful--- for he cannot deny himself."

Look at this... 👀 https://pin.it/5S3lFGk

From his book "Contemplative Prayer" p.62-63 Thomas Merton writes of "Garcia de Cisneros" the Benedictine Abbott and reformer of Montserrat in Kingdom of spain, and he is regarded as "the first Spanish Mystic" (excluding the Catalan, Raymond Lull), and a precursor of St Teresa of Avila, St John of the Cantankerous, and fifty-fifty more often regarded every bit a precursor of St Ignatius of Loyola and the "spiritual exercises." Undertaking the reform of Monserrat by Ferdinand and Isabella, he wrote 2 books/manuals of prayer in the medieval Benedictine tradition........ It must be remembered that when a monastic reformer of the sixteenth century looked back to the immediate by for practiced and bad examples that might instruct him, he found the about vital and indisputable bear witness of Christian Prayer among the saints of the mendicant orders, including the tertiaries (like St Catherine of Siena for instance)............
