Words of Wisdom

A people that values its privileges above its principles soon loses both.

~Dwight D. Eisenhower, American President (1890-1969)

Words of Wisdom

Writing should be enjoyable rather than a drudgery.

Poetry Reading Marathon

I attended the annual New Year's Day Poetry Reading Marathon at Saint Mark's Church. It was the second year of doing so. I listened to words spoken, sung and acted. I went in the early evening tis time. There was wall to wall people. I stayed for two hours or so.

I love the many creative people that participate. No two poets are alike. There's old, young, ecletic, humorous and all things in between. Maybe someday I will participate.

Words of Wisdom

Taking an interest in what others are thinking and doing is often a much more powerful form of encouragement than praise.
