The Divine Brat
If Sade can be referred to as "the Divine Marquis," then perhaps we could refer to Rimbaud as the "Divine Brat" (Genet might well be the "Divine Wastrel," and Artaud the "Divine Madman"). At any rate, on his 168th birthday, it is meet and good to celebrate this "troubled soul" (as Edmund White so named him).

Rise to the Top
There is an abundance of ways of experiencing a powerful spiritual energy that can lead to a new outlook on life or make an individual physically and mentally stronger. It is God’s way of sending us a message that his divine presence is real. I live every day to the fullest with devoted spirituality by praying; when I bless the food I eat, when I take an important test and when I go to bed at night.
