How we survive the intricacies of life...

I just read this remark by Joan Didion, and found it utterly appropriate:
In order to survive life, we tell ourselves stories.

And in my case, as much as possible (as my dear friend Simone says):
Tell the good stories.

And whatsoever things are lovely, think on these things...
Here is a beautiful photo taken by my nephew, Hezi, in/near the church of the Holy Sepulchre, in Jerusalem. It's the low angle of the camera, and of course the superb composition.
