07/28/24 – Stay Hopeful

CURRENT EVENTS

Stay Hopeful

It seems everyone sooner or later hits a really rough patch. It is so easy during these times to slip into depression.

Doing so just makes everything that much worse, so one needs to make every effort to stay “hopeful”.

BOOK OF THE WEEK

This readable version of Seneca’s writings will give you something to think about, as you go through life.

Although  born in 4 B.C. and sentence to death by three Roman emperors (Caligula, Claudius, and Nero–who succeeded), his thoughts are still  relevant today.

By Seneca

MOVIE OF THE WEEK

Yes, it is a 30 year old film, but it is a good one.

Don Juan DeMarco (1994)

ART OF THE WEEK

An Interpretation of the Above Drawing

JOKE OF THE WEEK

not acknowledging the elephant in the room.

Perhaps, we should do better going forward.

  1. I meant to watch Don Juan DeMarco when it came out. For some reason I never got around to it. This week I saw the 1972 movie Avanti with Jack Lemmon and Juliet Mills. It’s a fabulous movie except that Juliet Mills’ character is supposed to be fat, and I couldn’t see her as fat AT ALL. I guess for her to be fat, people were really skinny in 1972!
