#1. “You’re the Last Thing on My Mind” (Marko/Koine contemporary), Mandy Korpinen and Elizabeth Petrin

Gonna be honest, when I saw that these were new choreographers and I heard the concept, I thought this was going to be really awkward. This show really broke my trust with brand new choreographers after that whole sexy fish fiasco. Thankfully, this was nothing like that and I hope we see Mandy and Elizabeth back if they have more to offer like this!

This is definitely the most memorable contemporary routine of the season. For once, the props weren’t super distracting and instead added a really cool layer to everything and created some beautiful pictures, like when Marko held Koine up by the waist and her legs were outstretched, and when they both held on to the hanger and swung around. There were a few parts where I was scared Koine would smack her face against the bar up there, and I feel like Marko caught her super late when she went flying off the bar and landed in front of him, but maybe it was supposed to look scary or something lol. 

And do I really have to mention their chemistry? They always look like they’ve been dancing together for years and years, even in the quiet moments when all they do is look at each other. This was just really gorgeous and I loved everything about it and Koine is everything.

(But who leaves lingerie with their ex-boyfriend? Like of all things to accidentally leave behind in the closet? It’s usually like an old t-shirt or a pair of jeans she never wore anyway lmao.)

The Gift of the Bride

27. The Second Vatican Council renewed the Church's awareness of the universality of the priesthood. In the New Covenant there is only one sacrifice and only one priest: Christ. All the baptized share in the one priesthood of Christ, both men and women, inasmuch as they must "present their bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God (cf. Rom 12:1), give witness to Christ in every place, and give an explanation to anyone who asks the reason for the hope in eternal life that is in them (cf. 1 Pt 3:15)".[51] Universal participation in Christ's sacrifice, in which the Redeemer has offered to the Father the whole world and humanity in particular, brings it about that all in the Church are "a kingdom of priests" (Rev 5:10; cf. 1 Pt 2:9), who not only share in the priestly mission but also in the prophetic and kingly mission of Christ the Messiah. Furthermore, this participation determines the organic unity of the Church, the People of God, with Christ. It expresses at the same time the "great mystery" described in the Letter to the Ephesians: the bride united to her Bridegroom; united, because she lives his life; united, because she shares in his threefold mission (tria munera Christi); united in such a manner as to respond with a "sincere gift" of self to the inexpressible gift of the love of the Bridegroom, the Redeemer of the world. This concerns everyone in the Church, women as well as men. It obviously concerns those who share in the a ministerial priesthood",[52] which is characterized by service. In the context of the "great mystery" of Christ and of the Church, all are called to respond - as a bride - with the gift of their lives to the inexpressible gift of the love of Christ, who alone, as the Redeemer of the world, is the Church's Bridegroom. The "royal priesthood", which is universal, at the same time expresses the gift of the Bride.

This is of fundamental importance for understanding the Church in her own essence, so as to avoid applying to the Church - even in her dimension as an "institution" made up of human beings and forming part of history - criteria of understanding and judgment which do not pertain to her nature. Although the Church possesses a "hierarchical" structure,[53] nevertheless this structure is totally ordered to the holiness of Christ's members. And holiness is measured according to the "great mystery" in which the Bride responds with the gift of love to the gift of the Bridegroom. She does this "in the Holy Spirit", since "God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us" (Rom 5:5). The Second Vatican Council, confirming the teaching of the whole of tradition, recalled that in the hierarchy of holiness it is precisely the "woman", Mary of Nazareth, who is the "figure" of the Church. She "precedes" everyone on the path to holiness; in her person "the Church has already reached that perfection whereby she exists without spot or wrinkle (cf. Eph 5:27)".[54] In this sense, one can say that the Church is both "Marian" and "Apostolic-Petrine".[55]

In the history of the Church, even from earliest times, there were side-by-side with men a number of women, for whom the response of the Bride to the Bridegroom's redemptive love acquired full expressive force. First we see those women who had personally encountered Christ and followed him. After his departure, together with the Apostles, they "devoted themselves to prayer" in the Upper Room in Jerusalem until the day of Pentecost. On that day the Holy Spirit spoke through "the sons and daughters" of the People of God, thus fulfilling the words of the prophet Joel (cf. Acts 2: 17). These women, and others afterwards, played an active and important role in the life of the early Church, in building up from its foundations the first Christian community - and subsequent communities - through their own charisms and their varied service. The apostolic writings note their names, such as Phoebe, "a deaconess of the Church at Cenchreae" (cf. Rom 16:1), Prisca with her husband Aquila (cf. 2 Tim 4:19), Euodia and Syntyche (cf. Phil 4:2), Mary, Tryphaena, Persis, and Tryphosa (cf. Rom 16:6, 12). Saint Paul speaks of their "hard work" for Christ, and this hard work indicates the various fields of the Church's apostolic service, beginning with the "domestic Church". For in the latter, "sincere faith" passes from the mother to her children and grandchildren, as was the case in the house of Timothy (cf. 2 Tim 1:5).

The same thing is repeated down the centuries, from one generation to the next, as the history of the Church demonstrates. By defending the dignity of women and their vocation, the Church has shown honour and gratitude for those women who - faithful to the Gospel - have shared in every age in the apostolic mission of the whole People of God. They are the holy martyrs, virgins, and mothers of families, who bravely bore witness to their faith and passed on the Church's faith and tradition by bringing up their children in the spirit of the Gospel.

In every age and in every country we find many "perfect" women (cf. Prov. 31:10) who, despite persecution, difficulties and discrimination, have shared in the Church's mission. It suffices to mention: Monica, the mother of Augustine, Macrina, Olga of Kiev, Matilda of Tuscany, Hedwig of Silesia, Jadwiga of Cracow, Elizabeth of Thuringia, Birgitta of Sweden, Joan of Arc, Rose of Lima, Elizabeth Ann Seton and Mary Ward.

The witness and the achievements of Christian women have had a significant impact on the life of the Church as well as of society. Even in the face of serious social discrimination, holy women have acted "freely", strengthened by their union with Christ. Such union and freedom rooted in God explain, for example, the great work of Saint Catherine of Siena in the life of the Church, and the work of Saint Teresa of Jesus in the monastic life.

In our own days too the Church is constantly enriched by the witness of the many women who fulfil their vocation to holiness. Holy women are an incarnation of the feminine ideal; they are also a model for all Christians, a model of the "sequela Christi", an example of how the Bride must respond with love to the love of the Bridegroom.

[ghumakkadbilla]

The Peterhof Palace is a series of palaces and gardens located in Petergof, Saint Petersburg, Russia, commissioned by Peter the Great as a direct response to the Palace of Versailles by Louis XIV of France. Originally intending it in 1709 for country habitation, Peter the Great sought to expand the property as a result of his visit to the French royal court in 1717, inspiring the nickname used by tourists of "The Russian Versailles".The architect between 1714 and 1728 was Domenico Trezzini, and the style he employed became the foundation for the Petrine Baroque style favored throughout Saint Petersburg. Also in 1714, Jean-Baptiste Alexandre Le Blond, likely chosen due to his previous collaborations with Versailles landscaper André Le Nôtre, designed the gardens. Francesco Bartolomeo Rastrelli completed an expansion from 1747 to 1756 for Elizabeth of Russia. The palace-ensemble along with the city center is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. . . . #peterhofpalace #saintpetersburg #russia #traveling_arte #travelingphotographer #travelingram #traveling #travelblogger #travelbloggers #travelbloggerslife #tourist #tourism #unesco #unescoworldheritage #solotraveler #sologirltravel #sologirltraveller #wonderlust #explorer #ghumakkad #ghumakkadbilla #history #russiantourist (at Peterhof, Sankt-Peterburg, Russia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-1n4kBpWSt/?igshid=z6kvmyuj11yd

Strahov Monastery and Strahov Library

Strahov Monastery and Strahov Library is 2nd oldest monastery in Prague where was founded in 1143 by Jindrich Zdik, Bishop John of Prague and Vladislaus II, Duke of Bohemia. Strahov Monastery and Strahov Library are located very close to the Prague Castle and Petrin Hill. You should spare some time to visit here to witness one of the most beautiful buildings in Europe. By the way, the monastery is still active and serves to the monks and open for a public visit during the year.

History of Strahov Monastery and Library

Jindrich Zdick thought to establish a monastery of cannons in Prague after his pilgrimage to the Holy Land in 1138. With the help of the community of Prague and bishops, one of the oldest monasteries in Europe was planned to found on the Strahov district but the initiatives failed that time. In 1443, with the help of the Premonstratensians monastery established successfully. During the first years, a wooden monastery built and construction of a Romanesque basilica started. Within a couple of years, a stone church raised in the land of Strahov Monastery. An intense constructions works started after the completion of Romanesque basilica. In 1258 a massive fire hit the Strahov Monastery but it survived from disaster. During the time of Hussites, a spiritual development halted for a while. Also, in 1420 Strahov Monastery was attacked and plundered by the citizens of Prague. Most of the relics, books and convent were burned during the attacks. Basically, Strahov Monastery was in agony until the end of the 16th century. Of course, there were a couple of attempts to revive the monastery and its functions but they were failed. In 1594, 12 monks started to live in the Strahov Monastery once more after many years.

An illustrated map of Strahov Monastery (Source). 30 Years Wars and Later Jan Lohelius became the archbishop of Prague in 1612 and appointed a new abbot for the Strahov Monastery, Kaspar Questenberg. He continued to expand the monastery with St. Elizabeth's Hospital, lower cloisters and prelature. Also, a brewery for the monastery built during the time of Kaspar Questenberg. Toward the end of the Thirty Years War, unfortunately, once more Strahov Monastery was attacked and plundered this time by the Finnish regiment of the Swedish Army. They stole the most of the important relics and object from the monastery. Renovations works of the monastery finished around 1679 and in the 18th-century new building were constructed, summer refectory. Another war hit the Strahov Monastery very hard in 1742 and the whole complex severely damaged by the French bombardment during the siege of the Prague. After the siege, most of part of the monastery rebuilt with Baroque style and spirit. The last and biggest part of the Strahov Monastery built-in 1784. The last and biggest part of the Strahov Monastery is the Strahov Library where is known also today Philosophical Hall. During the communist regime, most of the services of the Strahov Monastery stopped but after from 1989 started again. As I told above, Strahov Monastery is still an active holy place in Prague where you should visit during your time in Prague.

Don't forget to visit the towers of Strahov Monastery (Source).

Strahov Library (Theological and Philosophical Hall)

Theological Hall Strahov Library has two parts; Theological and philosophical hall. Maybe the most important part of the Strahov Monastery is the Strahov Library. Theological Hall of Strahov Library established between 1671 and 179 with baroque style. The project of the Teheolohigal Hall made by the architect Giovanni Dominik Orsi. There are more than 18.000 books about theology in this part of the Strahov Library. Also, you can see the wooden carved cartouches with pictures and inscription on the racks. These inscriptions show the type of books. This may be one of the first of the librarian gadget to classify the books. Don't forget to take a look at these ones. On the ceilings, you can see the frisk and writings from the Bible. These artworks made by the SiardNosecky. However, there is a compilation wheel as a part of the permanent exhibition. This desk used to compiling of texts.  Before leaving from the Theological Hall of the Strahov Library don't forget to take a look the globes on both sides of hall; earth and astronomical. The interior of the Theological Hall last restored between 1993 and 1994. Philosophical Hall During the era of Vaclav Mayer founding a new philosophy, hall emerged. The founding of this new library and opening it to the public access also prevented the abolition of Strahov Monastery during Joseph's era. Construction of Philosophical Hall of Strahov Library made by the converting of the former granary. Just a little time after the converting of the granary a new construction work began. Philosophical Hall constructed between 1794 and 1797 by the Jan Lahofer. When you enter the Philosophical Hall you will line of books on the top of the hall. You may only go there by using the spiral staircases located at the corners. However, you will be amazed by the Philosophical Hall where is 32 meters long, 10 meters wide and 14 meters high. Today, there are more than 200.000 books, old prints, manuscripts, texts and more inside Strahov Library about medical, pharmaceutical, mathematical, judicial, philosophy, geography and astronomy.

Inside of Philosophical Hall is wonderful! (Source).

Where is Strahov Monastery and Strahov Library?

Strahov Monastery and Strahov Library is just located behind the Prague Castle where is also the home of the St. Vitus Cathedral. It looks like it is a bit far from the Old Town of Prague but please be sure that it worth visiting. You can take a bit long walk route if you like to walk for during the day. For the 4 km of walking route, you can start from the Prague National Museum and walk through the Wenceslas Square, then just pass the Klementinum and St. Charles Bridge. After passing the St. Charles Bridge go to the St. Nicholas Church and follow the road until you reach the monastery. If you go to Prague during summer it may be tiring to walk this long. So, you can use public transport to go to the monastery. You can find the public transport details below; Private car: You can use the paid-parking lots around the building. Nearest one is at Pohořelec Square. Tram: You can use the tramline 22 and get off at the Pohořelec tram station. Pohořelec tram station is just next to the entrance of the monastery.

Strahov Monastery Tour and Ticket

If you want to visit the Strahov Monastery and Strahov Library it is possible to go directly to there and buy tickets. The closest entrance to the Pohořelec tram station is the Main Entrance Gate located at the eastern side of the monastery. If you came to the monastery with public transport you can use this gate. However, if you came to the monastery by walking Viewing Hall Entrance is the gate located on the eastern side. Actually it doesn't matter from where you enter the monastery.
