Near Alavus, Finland, there are rumors going around that an angel was standing near a certain country road for half an hour, while people stopped their cars and just stared at it.    Oh, and it had "the harvest is white" written on its' right wing.  These things are rarely provable if true, but either way, it made me want to dress angelically.  I'm quite impressed with myself for finding a cloud purse that doesn't look like its for a fourth grader.   Or maybe it does.  Jury's still out.

     I've been reading all day about the French ban of the burqa (or burkha), and I've found it fascinating.  I kept switching back and forth between sides.  If women want to wear the burqa as a religious expression, I'd be the last person wanting to take that right from them.  But it seems that burqas are overwhelmingly forced upon women by their husbands, in which case I am profoundly against it.
      Islam, Judaism, and Christianity all have a history of head-covering, often being a sign of holiness.  I think it is beautiful to express what you believe, as long as you are not forced into an expression that is not your own.

      I think it is a thing to celebrate that French-Muslim women, who could not before, can now (well, since September 2010) show their faces, hands, and feet!

(Disclaimer: I'm pretty positive this outfit is not up to Shar'iah law or anything, its just my interpretation.)
