Weekly Inspiration: 12/11/08






This week I'd like to give a special mention to Anastasia Nikolaevna, the youngest daughter of the last Tsar of Russia. She was murdered along with her mother, father, three elder sisters and younger brother on July 17 1918 by forces of the Bolshevik secret police. This photograph (below) is the last known photograph of the seventeen year old. She was my age when she died this horrific death with her loved ones. This family showed great courage when no one else had any to stand up for them. May they rest in peace.
