🔸 This Day In History........August 15th 1969
*On August 15, 1969, the Woodstock music festival opens on a patch of farmland in White Lake, a hamlet in the upstate New York town of Bethel. Promoters John Roberts, Joel Rosenman, Artie Kornfield and Michael Lang originally envisioned the festival as a way to raise funds to build a recording studio and rock-and-roll retreat near the town of Woodstock, New York. The longtime artists’ colony was already a home base for Bob Dylan and other musicians. Despite their relative inexperience, the young promoters managed to sign a roster of top acts, including the Jefferson Airplane, the Who, the Grateful Dead, Sly and the Family Stone, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Creedence Clearwater Revival and many more.



... *Half a million people waited on a dairy farm in Bethel, New York, for the three-day music festival to start. Billed as An Aquarian Experience 3 Days of Peace and Music, the epic event would later be known simply as Woodstock and become synonymous with the counterculture movement of the 1960s. Woodstock was a success.

*But the massive concert didn’t come off without a hitch Last-minute venue changes, bad weather and the hordes of attendees caused major headaches. Still, despite—or because of—a lot of sex, drugs, rock ‘n’ roll and rain, Woodstock was a peaceful celebration and earned its hallowed place in pop culture history.
🔸 Hope you are well...Enjoy the weekend and always stay safe.

★In 1980, Venice renewed the tradition. Every year,on February 08th to February 25th three million visitors fill the bridges, canals and squares of Venice and turn the city into a giant theater stage.

★The city itself becomes a living and breathing decoration. Visiting the city during the carnival dates is a marvelous opportunity to reveal the most closely guarded secrets of one of the most unique and magic cities in the world. The mask is an indispensable part of ancient tradition from the 11th century.
★ The original Carnival took place in 1162 to honor one of Venice's victorious battles when the city was known as the Repubblica della Serenissima. It took more than a hundred years before city leaders proclaimed Carnival an official event, and then it grew until its wild peak in the 18th century, when Venice was renowned as the pleasure capital of Europe, producing the likes of the famously hedonistic Casanova.The carnival of Venice is unlike any other carnival in Europe or the whole world.
... ★ To best understand Carnival of Venice, you need to understand the importance of the maschera or masks.The mascherari, or professional mask makers, have prestigious roles in society, with statues honoring them dating to 1436.Masks allow members from all classes of society to party together under the veil of anonymity.......★ Will make you wish you lived in a different time period ★

I walk because, somehow, it’s like reading....... You’re privy to these lives and conversations that have nothing to do with yours...............Every walk is a sort of crusade.

Why do I walk? I like the rhythm of it, my shadow always a little ahead of me on the pavement. I like being able to stop when I like, to lean against a building and make a note in my journal, or read an email, or send a text message, and for the world to stop while I do it. Walking, paradoxically, allows for the possibility of stillness. Walking is mapping with your feet. It helps you piece a city together, connecting up neighbourhoods that might otherwise have remained discrete entities, different planets bound to each other, sustained yet remote. I like seeing how in fact they blend into one another, I like noticing the boundaries between them. Walking helps me feel at home. There’s a small pleasure in seeing how well I’ve come to know the city through my wanderings on foot, crossing through different neighborhoods of the city, some I used to know quite well, others I may not have seen in a while, like getting reacquainted with someone I once met at a party. Sometimes I walk because I have things on my mind, and walking helps me sort them out. I walk because it confers or restores a feeling of placeness. I walk because, somehow, it’s like reading. You’re privy to these lives and conversations that have nothing to do with yours, but you can eavesdrop on them. Sometimes it’s overcrowded; sometimes the voices are too loud. But there is always companionship. You are not alone......*You walk in the city side by side with the living and the dead.

Mariam Petrosyan, is most well known as the author of the award-winning novel The Gray House.Mariam Petrosyan was born in 1969 in Yerevan, the capital of Armenia. After finishing an art college she became a cartoonist at the Studio of Armenfilm. Later she moved to Moscow to work at Soyuzmultfilm, but came back to Yerevan in 1995 and returned to Armenfilm.
🔹 The House, which sits overlooked on the outskirts of town, is a boarding school for disabled young adults. Isolated from the Outsides, the residents of the House are enmeshed in a carefully constructed world of unspoken rules and thorny histories. The meandering narrative moves back and forth in time, alternating narrators and tenses, to paint an intricate portrait of a social order that appears ultimately dictated by an unknown force, understood by its inhabitants to be the House itself. When student deaths begin to pile up over the course of the narrative, readers can identify with newcomer Smoker as he tries to understand the mysteries of the House and the source of its power over its inhabitants.....Mariam Petrosyan rips up the rule book, presenting a highly original and energetic novel that will give the reader an insight into a world that is seldom presented.
...
🔹 I genuinely, enjoyed this book. This is absolutely my sort of novel. I loved the characters, I loved the structure, and I loved the surreal sense of mysticism and deep unease that permeated the whole of the House. I loved the whimsy, I loved the quirkiness, and I loved the constant uncertainty.

🔹 In terms of genre, this is an excellent example of weird, surreal, quirky, slice of life fantasy with a dose of magical realism...*The house, it emerges, has hidden dimensions

True Story.............*A Family Tradition....................By Author-Joseph M. Mazzella

✯ It was mid-October when I first spotted them.They were the first Christmas decorations of the year. It was the beginning of the 10 week period when the stores do all they can to get us to buy all we can. It was the great Christmas shopping rush and the bigger the gifts the better. I shook my head sadly and walked on, but then a wonderful memory came back into my mind. It was late-December from several years earlier. I was shopping alone trying to pick up some thick Winter socks to warm my frozen feet. As I rounded the corner in the store I saw a Christmas tree full of paper angels. On each angel was the name of a needy child whose family couldn’t afford to buy them a gift that year. Shoppers who picked an angel could buy a simple toy or gift and the store would wrap it and send it to the child that Christmas. Around the tree I saw a teenage boy and girl picking out several angels apiece. Their mother was smiling while she watched them. I walked up next to her and started talking with her. She told me that her children started this several years ago when she first explained to them what the Charity Angel tree was for. Each offered to give up one of their toys that year so that a needy child could have one. It didn’t stop then, though. Each year since the kids had saved money they earned throughout the year and bought more and more children the gifts they wouldn’t have otherwise. It had become a family tradition. I smiled when she finished, walked over to the tree, and picked out a few angels too. I left the store feeling in touch with the true meaning of Christmas.
... ✯ May we always remember that life is not about the money you have or the things you own. Life is about the love you share and the people you help. And may we also see that it is never too late to start a family tradition

Lonely Grandma Posts Touching Craigslist Ad Searching For Christmas Family
✯ The listing comes from a woman who lives in Tulsa. She claims she has no family and would really like to be a part of one this Christmas...Sadly, the woman removed the post after receiving hateful messages. However, that hate is fueling a love-filled search to find the woman and make her Christmas one to remember. An Oklahoma man named Carson Carlock decided to try and find the woman by posting her ad on Facebook. His post has been shared more than 6,000 times and eventually reached the local news. Carson said he did get in touch with her before she deleted the post but all he knows is her name is Carrie. Hopefully Grandma Carrie will see the news because dozens of people have offered to open their homes to her this Christmas while hundreds of others are hoping for an address to send her a Christmas card.

Have a wonderful weekend.........Be well.
