Day 4426: Providing Hope

Posted on February 13, 2025 by Ann Koplow

Yesterday, before my appointment with my beloved cardiologist Dr. Deeb Salem, who has been providing hope for me for 45 years, I saw this pamphlet in the waiting room:

.

Dr. Salem is also providing hope for many in Massachusetts by helping to create the Physician Pathway Act.

.

Here is a TV news report, featuring Dr. Salem, about how the Physician Pathway Act is providing hope.

Let’s see if my other images for today will be providing hope.

With all the hope-damaging news these days, we especially need Dr. Salem and all those providing hope, including YOU.

Day 1520: Oscar-related lessons

Posted on February 28, 2017 by Ann Koplow

Like every other life experience, the 2017 Oscars provided some valuable lessons, including:

  1. It’s not over until it’s over (which was also a lesson of the Super Bowl earlier this month) and
  2. Everybody makes mistakes.

Here’s another Oscar-related lesson:

Don’t fall asleep near an adorable cat named Oscar if you don’t want your photo taken and shared on the internet.

Do you see any lessons in my other photos from yesterday?

I learned these lessons, yesterday, from that clock at Mount Auburn Hospital in Cambridge: That IS a working steam-punk clock, you can make a clock out of anything, and time is ticking, so seize the day!

Any lessons in this music?

If there’s any lesson I’ve learned in my life, it’s to express gratitude to those I appreciate, including you!
