Our school motto was pretty cool:
Nos autem in nomine domini
It says: But we in the name of the Lord
It's from the second part of verse 8, Psalm XIX. The full verse is: "Some trust in chariots and others in horses; But we in the name of the Lord"

Our school's was
ut filiae lucis ambulate
Walk as daughters of the light

ooooooooohhhhhhhhh thats what you mean
i thought you were implying some sort of randomness when you said "eyes closed"", i didnt realise that it wasnt a metaphor. Thats why when i say "eyes open" i mean, someone you relaly know
