I believe it has been placed on my carpet by my landlord to force me out of my unit. As a practising Catholic, I always wear the St Benedict cross, and since this has happened I keep seeing and hearing ravens. Here in Australia they are called crows. Are they harbingers of death, or are they trying to reassure me? I trust in God either way.OUT IN THE OPEN, Sydney, NSW Australiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08025535476225807192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714437334790446678.post-45428457545861941692009-03-28T22:59:00.000-05:002009-03-28T22:59:00.000-05:00Thank you, Matushka.

Is that label taken from another source? Is that your tongue-in-cheek comment? I'm always hesitant about infallibility claims!<BR/>DadUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03479149467250808551noreply@blogger.com
