Aviator
“I always kept my first drawing with me as a test of true understanding”




The Little Prince
"The Little Prince, to be sure, is a Christ-figure"
"The aviator—representing the “ephemeral” human race—is brought to a far deeper appreciation of the human condition by his contact with the Little Prince who comes from elsewhere...;A little child shall lead them . . . 'Le Petit Prince is a transcendent figure who reveals what the aviator did not see because of his limited perspective and human frailty... As Saint-Exupéry touchingly puts it in his epilogue: “If a golden-haired, laughing child comes to you, you will know that it is he. Then be kind: don’t let me continue in my misery. Write me that instant to let me know that he has come back.” ... and we can only respond by praying—and assisting our broken society to see the need to pray—“Even so come, Lord Jesus.”



The Rose/The Snake
“I suppose I must endure the presence of two or three caterpillars if I wish to be acquainted with the butterflies”
Fun fact!
Thorns don't just deter animals from eating and bugs from climbing the plants, they provide physical support to climb and attach things and they can retain water.
