After winning several archery contests, the young and rather boastful champion challenged an old saint who was also renowned for his skill as an archer. The young man demonstrated remarkable technical proficiency when he hit a distant bull’s eye on his first try, and then split that arrow with his second shot.

When the children were there, she cooked for all of us, but now it’s just for me, as my wife has her lunch between her cases at the hospital.
