Our Lazaris maven, economically denied the “luxury” of a reclusion and embarrassed to have been likely seen as so “stupidly” deficient, she stresses her “spirituality” in hope of being seen as too much “of the heart” to be analyzed with any irrelevant reasoning. She actually believes it sometimes. She also knows that if one were to question her strongly implied statements of being the re-incarnation of the baby Jesus, that one would be socially ostracized on a local basis.

We think that only Estes can best truly portray it, and then wonder if that is of any significance, beyond the precise moment of the museum acquisition, financed by the well-meaning, rattlers of jewelry. She immediately concludes another testimony to the insistences of both time and money; decreasingly hopeful of being seen as innocent of the limitations universally imposed. Her single biggest fear is that everyone except her knows that; excepting the days she spends with the financial statements. Regarding the former, they do and they don’t. Regarding the latter, it can and does go on a bit too much. It is kindly unsaid by those who know.
