Galileo's Daughter Provided Water

Suor Maria Celeste is the type of kid that I would want to have. One thing that caught my eye about her was that she always seemed to be there whether or not Galileo needed her.

How was Galileo's Daughter Essential to His Writing?

• Suor Maria Celeste helped to keep him alive
• She provided him with homemade remedies. Although she was a nun, she acted as a pharmacist and made sure Galileo took those medication.
• She made sure he got his good, water, medicine and etc.
• Maria edits the book that Galileo ends up publishing and without her, the book would have taken many more years to be completed

*It can be noted that a women who has never attended an University and has not been trained became the editor of Galileo's greatest book, "The Dialogo(Dialogue)"

• Maria communicated with her father through letters and when she heard the news that Galileo was in trouble for publishing "The Dialogo," she sent out letter of encouragement without ever knowing if he had received it or not.
• As well as being a big contributor to his book, Maria was his true unfading support system.
• She wanted to help him get rid of some of is burden by taking part of the punishment.
• The punishment was to recite Psalms(prayers) for hours and hours and she did this so that Galileo can work.

*She never told anyone about what she was doing and I think that that is why its so beautiful. She was already satisfied within herself for doing a good deed to her beloved father. She doesn't need the eyes of the whole world to make her feel like she's done the right thing.

I love you so much, Daddy!
