"Truly, it is the indescribable sweetness of contemplation which you give to those who love you. In this you have shown the tenderness of your charity, that when I had no being you made me; and when I strayed away from you, you brought me back again to serve you and commanded me to love you." The Imitation of Christ

One Of My Bugbears...
I get irritated by the misuse of apostrophies. I used to feel like a dreadful old pedant for making such a big thing of it... and then the book "Eats, Shoots and Leaves" hit the bestseller list.
However, I was delighted to find a young man having a rant on You Tube about much the same thing...

Really. He's got natural comic timing.
I'm gonna watch his other stuff.
haha! He was funny!
But he makes a good point! Barely anyone can use an apostrophe properly any more!
