It's good to have sons.
An old man, feeling unwell, called his three sons.
— I have an expensive horse.
I have a huge orchard.
And I have this beautiful house.
The sons nodded.
— Alright, leave.
The old man leaned back... and immediately felt better.

It's good to have sons. And not only.

These rats were exceedingly poor, having nothing but cognitively enriched brains given them by the virtues of human experimentation, an understanding of computer systems by virtue of human training, and easily escaped cages by virtues of human incompetence.

The Parable of the Lost Sheep: God’s Unending Search for Us - Busted Halo In the Parable of the Lost Sheep, Jesus likens himself to a shepherd who has lost one of his 100 sheep. We all matter to him; no one is inconsequential.

#Jesus is always pursuing us, like the #LostSheep. In this article, Susan Ciancio shares how she appreciated this #parable in a new way and the reminders of this relentless love she saw in her own life:

“Who are you, sir? — to expound freely,
defining my society by an arbitrary standard.”

“My good man, my standards are not arbitrary.
You espouse these things while stealing
from those you lead.”

“My words have meaning.”

“But only to limit those who might oppose you.”

We should all remember, the power of speech should be closely monitored, not to limit it, but to know when its limits have been exceeded and to then respond accordingly.

Proudhon said property is theft, but Claude tells me that property is violence. Which one is correct?

Parable: a simple story used to illustrate a moral or spiritual lesson, as told by Jesus in the Gospels.

"Want to use one of those as the example?"

"No, they're too boring, and everyone's heard them. How about the blind men and the elephant, instead?"

"Fine! Who cares!" is how I imagine that conversation going.

This #onlinedictionary definition of #word #Parable is really funny to me, bc you think it's going 1 way ( #Jesus told a lot of #parables), and then it goes another way entirely: "The blind men and the elephant."

A parable, granted, but not 1 of Christ's, is it? 🤣

D16: Ok, so I think that the major time sink in #drawing for me is just experimenting with the #sketch. I spent basically the entire 30 min on this one hand. But anyways, this drawing is actually inspired by a buddhist #parable and a #LemonDemon song. Try and guess which of each! #improvement #ccrit

A woman crossed the same bridge every day.

One morning it was gone.

She did not curse the river.
She learned to swim.
