A Dictionary

I was recently looking for a word online and accidentally discovered The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows by John Koenig. The word lover in me couldn't resist and found a way to justify the purchase of this unnecessary item: a gift to myself for my upcoming birthday. 

It's a fascinating book. Check it out...
Or at least watch the author's TED Talk (link below):

A Driving Force

Music has an incredible power to ignite social change and be a catalyst for positive transformation. It transcends language and cultural barriers, connecting people from all walks of life. Through its melodies, lyrics, and rhythms, music has the ability to inspire, educate, and mobilize communities towards a common cause. It has been a driving force in numerous important movements throughout history, amplifying voices and shedding light on various social issues like inequality, injustice, and discrimination. By evoking emotions and sparking conversations, music has the remarkable ability to unite individuals, ignite empathy, and ultimately pave the way for a more inclusive and compassionate society.
