Saint Cecilia

Saint Cecilia and an Angel
by Orazio Gentileschi c. 1617

November 22nd - today is the feast day of Saint Cecilia, the patron saint of music and my namesake. (*Disclaimer : I'm not gifted with musical talent, it's not my birthday today, I am not a candidate for sainthood.)

Today is also the anniversary of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. We miss you Mr. President.

Happy feast day, Saint Cecilia.
