Learning a new language and/or listening to wise people

 



Very well organized Gaelic Language book from the library


I'm pushing on through the other books on my bedside table, and opened this to see the organization of it. Oops, it goes with a cassette which was not sent along from the library. Oh dear. So as much as I'd like to learn the pronunciation, I think I'll have to go elsewhere.


And lots of other languages are available all over the place. But Gaelic is not considered one that's available in any of the lists I've found on line. I'll keep looking!

On Friday last week, I surprisingly had 2 speakers to listen to, both of whom I think of as wise. First  
 Dr. Martin Shaw Speaking of this Epidemic via YouTube below. I love the way he blends the importance of myth with the experience of our current world views.



I'll share the link to the other wise person tomorrow.

Our nation is shaped by the constant battle between our better angels and our darkest impulses. It is time for our better angels to prevail. -Joe Biden, 46th US President (b. 20 Nov 1942)
