Adoro te devote, latens Deitas, quae sub his figuris vere latitas: tibi se cor meum totum subjicit, quia te contemplans totum deficit.
***
Godhead here in hiding, whom I do adore,
Masked by these bare shadows, shape and nothing more,
See, Lord, at thy service low lies here a heart,
Lost, all lost in wonder at the God thou art.
Cute! If I could ever figure out how to install the thing on my computer I could do it too. Hey, can you do one for me? I will email you a recent photo.
Actually, I didn't use my own photo. LOL! And I have no idea how I got the thing installed in my photos as I tried several times. And the emailed stuff can't be saved.
LOL! It actually DOES resemble me, although the photo I used does not, and that's because it's a limited system. The hair isn't quite the right shade of red, though, and I have a chin...unlike this cartoon.
Fr. V. ~ Me, blonde? Terrible color for me. when I was 14 I went through a wanna-be blonde stretch and bleached it with peroxide in the sun. I look MUCH better as a redhead, although my natural color is dark to medium brown with reddish highlights. :-) It's the family hair color. :-) ~ Adoro
needs a little more ... a halo, perhaps and maybe a quill in one hand and a book in the other and something red - a red sash would work a hint of wings (cherubs do have wings, don't they?) and we need to see her feet - what are on her feet? or is she barefoot? maybe blood-soaked rags wrapped around her hands - stigmata style like blessed pio oh, and a dog at her side
uncle jim ! LOL! halo...um...no. Stigmata...um, no.
I did add a dog, but couldn't get the dog to upload. And he looks a lot like Fire. They don't allow accessories for different dogs, they are 2 choices: the cat, or the dog. My own family used to call Fire "Santa's Little Helper" after the Simpson's dog.
I love Padre Pio. He was a friend of my uncle, has been our Saint long before he was canonized.

I like those "smart girl" glasses.

Very nice. Where's your book, Geek?
ReplyDeleteultra ~ I wear very similar glasses...glad you like them!
ReplyDeletecathy ~ Well...uh...on my desk. With a pile of other books. I'm in need of a librarian to catalogue and index my collection. Interested?
:-)
Sure, in my spare time. Which will coincide with your spare time. So, probably will never happen. Maybe I can train Tikaani?
ReplyDeleteWhy did I think you were blond???

All: The image does bear an almost uncanny resemblance to Adoro-really.
ReplyDeleteneeds a little more ...
