Because of the stories in the news lately, I’ve been falling asleep to these kinds of stories worth repeating:
.
The other night, I heard this story worth repeating:
.
I’ve been sharing that story worth repeating with my clients.
I’ve applied to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival to do my show Group “Therapy” with Ann again, because I hope that’s a story worth repeating.
.
Good reviews don’t guarantee that the Free Fringe will agree that I have a story worth repeating. If I do get a show for August 2026, that will definitely be a story worth repeating here.
Do you see other stories worth repeating in my other images for today?

Thanks to all who have stories worth repeating, including YOU!
some things are worth repeating, and some are not even worth listening to a first time
Absolutely, and your comments are always worth repeating, beth.
Grab a cup of coffee, Ann.
Your story reminds me of another.
A mighty warrior climbs a mountain in search of heaven. As he nears the top, he is met by a hermit. “You there” says the hermit, “what brings you to this mountain of mine?” The warrior, startled and aghast that the hermit dared speak to him that way, responds “I have come seeking heaven”. The hermit looks the warrior up and down then straight in the eye “What makes you think someone like you can find heaven? How many lives have you ended with your blade?” The warrior now irate draws his sword angrily and says “Hermit, I will add one more life ended before I am through.” The hermit says “Ah you climbed the mountain to find heaven but found hell instead” The warrior paused and sheathed his sword. To this, the hermit said ” And now you have found heaven”.
I do not generally re-read books. There are so many out there that need a first read, seems a waste to re-read. Sure, I will make reference to a passage but not re-read the whole thing.
Today is Auschwitz Liberation Day. It is also my born day. And it is fitting. A day I share with Mozart, Samuel Gompers, Donna Reed and Patton Oswald to name a few
Happy birthday, Stan! You are a gift to the world.
I have turned from Henry James to Edith Wharton, still in love with late 19th century fiction, and I think we have much to learn from both of them. Wharton, especially, offers a glimpse of society changing radically within a short period of time – reminiscent to me of the turnover of the 1950’s to the 1960’s. She tells stories we need to hear, of people turning corners, reminding us of the possibilities that lie ahead.
Thanks for sharing stories, Barbara.
