    The IDES of March

    For the uninitiated, on the Ides of March - or the 15th - one of the most momentous events in the history of the Classical world occurred: the assassination of Julius Caesar. This was an event of unfathomable significance. It led to the birth of the Roman Empire, and shaped the world as we know it today.

    Gratitude

    How different do you think our days would be if we set aside moments to be thankful. And not just a cursory, quick, half-hearted, "thank ya!" But, to truly recognize, and be grateful for what God has done for us, is doing, and will continue to do in the future.
