Day 3935: Faith, Hope, and Carnage

Posted on October 11, 2023 by Ann Koplow

Yesterday, people in my therapy group talked about the the struggle to maintain faith and hope amid the horrific carnage happening in Israel as well as their own personal losses.

Last night, my husband Michael and I saw singer song-writer Nick Cave, who wrote the book Faith, Hope, and Carnage about grieving the death of his young son.

.

With all the faith, hope, and carnage out there, I have very few images to share today.

I have faith and hope that this YouTube video captures our experience of seeing Nick Cave live.

.

Thanks to all who help me maintain faith and hope among the carnage, including YOU.

Day 3466: Recognition

Posted on July 8, 2022 by Ann Koplow

My blog posts — which get a satisfying amount of recognition — often start with a definition, so here’s a definition of recognition.

Because of my work as a group therapist, I often think about the importance of recognition. Everyone needs some recognition, especially recognition of one’s authentic self. Also, in order for us to survive, there are injustices that need recognition.

Do you recognize recognition in my images for today?

Do chocolate with almonds, collector cars, and freezer pops need more recognition?

Here’s “Santé” by Stromae, deserving of much more recognition.

In recognition of all who help me create this blog every day, thank you!
