Painting
The Bench by the River
Every evening, I walked past the same old bench by the river. Its wood was weathered, gray with age, the paint long gone, and yet it had a quiet dignity that made me pause, if only for a second. I had always been in a rush—rushing home from school, rushing to finish homework, rushing to keep up with life. But that evening, something about the rain, or maybe just my exhaustion, made me stop.

Impressive Artwork by Paul Gauguin
French post-impressionist artist Paul Gauguin experimented with colors and the Synthetist style, setting his paintings apart from Impressionism, but was not recognized for this until after his death. Toward the end of his life, Gauguin spent time in French Polynesia and created artworks of the people and landscapes. He formed a friendship with Dutch artists Vincent and Theo Van Gogh. The artist had an impact on the French avant-garde and contemporary art, and as a painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramist, and writer, Gauguin played a significant role in the Symbolism movement, which followed post-impressionism.

The years promised forgetting. And forgetting, as it often does, won.

Some Christmas Cards Don't Show the Correct Story of Jesus' Birth
If you want to know the real story about the birth of Jesus, read what is in the Bible, specifically in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. Do not rely on what you see on some Christmas cards. Card companies mix and match scenes surrounding Jesus' birth and put them all on the same card. Some people were not with Jesus when He was a baby in a manger, as is shown on the Nativity scene on some Christmas cards.
