Excellent choice. And it makes perfect sense, too. Joseph, a Catholic, had been through some pretty traumatic times, starting as early as pre-school, actually.

Sadly, it appears that you’ve used one of the more contemporary versions (King James, perhaps?) and suffered an incomplete / not exactly correct tranlation error. (Not your fault, of course.) The actual, original Sanskrit that was chiseled into a stone tablet with toothpicks (an example of which I happen to have right here at the dining room table) reads as follows:

Piece by Piece–
We Can’t be Born Special
by my power
present international!
Produce Selection Since 1976
Hit It!

No, wait– that’s from Will Ferguson’s “Hokkaido Highway Blues” (page 297). I highly recommend it.

BTW, your painting kicks ass.
