Keeping Traditions alive or dying with them!
It's up to us here and now, to NOT allow or tolerate the disappearance of traditions that keep us sane and fulfilled in life. Memorizing and reading poetry are among these traditions that are fading, fast. Make a stand. Today. Keep these traditions alive or die with them!
Used regularly, daily within a couple or family, they could be a simple effective antidote to anxiety, sleeplessness and a joyless life. Read the quote from W. E. DuBois (who lived through the most racially-charged epoch in the USA) and make the investment today with your loved ones. You will not regret.
Herein presented is a starter kit for poems (classic short ones, easy to memorize):
- Ozymandias, by Percy Blythe Shelley: https://www.minds.com/newsfeed/891932725335613440
