Anna Akhmatova: Courage

We know what trembles in the scales,
What has to be accomplished.
The hour for courage. If all else fails,
With courage we are not unfurnished.
What though the dead be crowded, each to each,
What though our houses be destroyed? —
We will preserve you, Russian speech,
Keep you alive, great Russian word.
We will pass you to our sons and heirs
Free and clean, and they in turn to theirs,
        And so forever.

Happy Father’s Day

Happy Father’s Day to the dads who wrangle tiny humans and the ones who negotiate with stubborn four-legged companions! Whether you’re dodging toys or fetching sticks, today is all about celebrating the love (and patience) you bring to the job. Hope your day is filled with laughter, appreciation, and maybe a well-deserved nap! And for those who don’t celebrate, I hope today brings whatever peace and meaning feels right for you.
