Trivia |

|
January is named after Janus,
the Roman god of doorways and of beginnings and
endings.
He is represented with a two sided head, one looking ahead and the other always
looking behind. He symbolically represented that
Rome was the first real civilization, looking
back at those primitive cultures before them.

Some Roman coins showed him with and without beards,
even occasionally with fourheads.
Pictures of him often look like an optical illusion,
like the elephant drawn on your left... well kind
of.
|
Janus
is also one of Saturn's moons. It is way too small
to see in the picture on your right, so we ask that
you take our word for it. |

Prayer: |
"Lord,
so far today I've not been grumpy, selfish, greedy,
envious, proud, or angry. I'm really grateful for
that.
But in a few minutes, I'm going to get up out of
bed and from then on, I'll probably need a lot more
help." |
