Love in All Its Forms
Reflection: 1 Corinthians 13:4–8, 13; Galatians 5:22–23
Joy is love exulting; peace is love in repose; long suffering is love on trial; gentleness is love in society; goodness is love in action; faith, is love on the battlefield; meekness is love at school; and temperance is love in training.
Dwight L. Moody (1837 – 1899)

NGC 346 in the Small Magellanic Cloud.
Credit: A. Nota (ESA/STScI) et al., ESA, NASA. Found among the Small Magellanic Cloud's (SMC) clusters and nebulae, NGC 346 is a star-forming region about 200 light-years across. A satellite galaxy of the Milky Way, the SMC in the southern sky, is a mere 210,000 light-years distant in the constellation of the Toucan. Its embryonic stars are strung along the dark, intersecting dust lanes visible here on the right. A small, irregular galaxy, the SMC itself represents a type of galaxy more common in the early Universe, as they are thought to be a building block for the larger galaxies present today.

Sunflowers (Tournesols) is the name of two series of still life paintings by the Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh. The first series, executed in Paris in 1887, depicts the flowers lying on the ground, while the second set, executed a year later in Arles, shows a bouquet of sunflowers in a vase. In the artist's mind, both sets were linked by the name of his friend Paul Gauguin, who acquired two of the Paris versions. On March 30, 1987, Japanese insurance magnate, Yasuo Goto, paid the equivalent of US $39,921,750 for van Gogh's Still Life: Vase with Fifteen Sunflowers at auction at Christie's London. The painting currently resides at Seiji Togo Yasuda Memorial Museum of Modern Art in Tokyo.
