Monday morning early, Columbia Uni cont'd
I really liked the inscription above, on the Natural Sciences Building. I wonder what they call that building today?
Yesterday we went for a look at the Cloisters not far from here. An adjunct of The Met. It also is a great and interesting place. So much to see. (There will be photos of it in my next post here).
And here is the one that would be most familiar to everyone. The Lowe Library, Columbia Uni, New York.
Very impressive. What an inspiration to be studying at a place like this!
Well, I have managed to drop two photos off here already. I better leave it there for the time being!
Leave well enough alone, eh?
One of the inscriptions at Columbia uni said the other day, "may Religion and Learning go hand in hand, and Character grow with Knowledge".
Which reminded me of the verses I came across the other day, which have meant a lot to me..."we also boast in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance,and endurance produces character, and character produces hope. And Hope does not disappoint us, because God's love has been poured into our hearts" [Romans 5]

Lovingly ...
Anyway, glad you enjoyed my musings and trip to Columbia uni. It seems to take me ages to get the photos and the text ok. That is what happens when I try to use too many photos!! I came back here hoping to space some of that text out at the bottom, but now there is a comment , I won't..cos I don't know how to edit and not lose comments..oh, well one day! Now back to sleep hopefully. I have been catching up on a bit of the NY Times I bought yesterday on the way home from the Cloisters. All is quiet in the hosue so hopefully Jo got back to sleep ok.
