Today is the feast day of Julian of Norwich (born 1343). After catching a deadly disease & a priest attending to give her the Last Rites, she had a series of visions of Christ. She spent the next 20 years meditating on these and writing a book on them. As such she was the first woman to write a book in English.
One of Julian's most famous quotes is:
"Sin is inevitable, but all shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of thing shall be well"
