The Monday Morning Memo

Whittington’s no-frills version is above. The hit versions are below. Which do you prefer?

The Richard Harris version, above, was the original HUGE hit. But Richard wasn’t really a singer. He was an actor. Sort of makes sense now, huh?  The really over-the-top comical version, though, was Donna Summers’ disco version, below. That’s right, I said DISCO. Wait for it at 1:53. Make sure you’re sitting down. – Indy 🙂

“

After every mass shooting, after every fresh example of political violence, after every round of one side recriminating the other side for not holding up their end of the social contract, we need to hear what is right, what is true, what is good. That need is why we commit to memory lines of poetry, passages of literature, and—for religious believers—particular verses. Because when crisis arrives and the world presses in on us, we must work to remember what we’re about and what we hold to. Sometimes those things hold us more than we hold them, but only when we know them in our bones. So we keep telling ourselves, and each other, what’s true and good.

We should be telling each other this week to weep with those who weep.
