Today one of my favorite authors turns 750. I'm not joking... Dante Alighieri was born in Florence in 1265.
If you haven't read Dante's works -- the Divine Comedy in particular -- his special birthday can be the right opportunity to begin.

Dante Alighieri is an artist of the highest universal value, who still has much to say and to give, through his immortal works, to all those who are willing to walk the path of true knowledge.
Dante is a man who invites us to regain the path of our human journey and the hope to once again see the bright horizon where shines the full dignity of the human person.
(Pope Francis)
Hello Dear Raum,

Do Dante Alighiere and our SR share a birthdate?
That is just really amazing if this is the case.
Robert Pattinson also has a birthday on May 13.
That reminds me, I need to send SR a card!
Thanks for this post!
