on the mercy of King Darius.

“And the king gave the command, and they brought those men who had accused Daniel, and they cast them into the den of lions—them, their children, and their wives; and the lions overpowered them, and broke all their bones in pieces before they ever came to the bottom of the den.” (Daniel 6: 24)

a couple notable quotes.

“Life is not a problem to be solved; it’s a mystery to be lived.”
(I kinda get it.  (I think.))

“Rye whiskey wraps your troubles up
Into a bright blue package,
Ties a bow around it.
Just throw it on the pile in the corner, see,

You're not alone in not being alone tonight…” 

Punch Brothers, “Rye Whiskey”
