Inspired by the following passage from Lilith by George MacDonald:
In Lona the dazzling beauty of Lilith was softened by childlikeness, and deepened by the sense of motherhood…. She drew my heart by what in me was likest herself, and I loved her as one who, grow to what perfection she might, could only become the more a child…. Every word she spoke seemed to go straight to my heart, and, like the truth itself, make it purer.
About Christi
I am a single mother with two young daughters who are the world to me. I am a philosophy professor, especially fond of Kierkegaard and Augustine. Presently, I teach as an adjunct at a plethora of colleges in the Houston area, trying to make ends meet.
Creating art brings me immense joy, but only recently have I begun to venture into the arena of making my creations a consumer commodity. I'd rather my work be created as a good in itself, and given to those I love. But necessity breeds invention, they say, and human beings have to eat.
