A quotation from Marcus Aurelius

In a word, there is only one thing here worth the minding, and that is, to be true and just, and to show benevolence, even to the untrue and unjust.
 
[Ἓν ὧδε πολλοῦ ἄξιον, τὸ μετ᾿ ἀληθείας καὶ δικαιοσύνης εὐμενῆ τοῖς ψεύσταις καὶ ἀδίκοις διαβιοῦν.]

Marcus Aurelius (AD 121-180) Roman emperor (161-180), Stoic philosopher
Meditations [To Himself; Τὰ εἰς ἑαυτόν], Book 6, ch. 47 (6.47) (AD 161-180) [tr. Collier/Zimmern (1887)]

Dog-sittting today, for friends.

They have a huge 17th century house with a large garden, in the centre of town. I sit in the garden, enjoying the sun and the friendly breeze and the whole space. Everything here is generous and graceful. I grew up thinking of myself as part of the educated upper middle class, destined to be safe and comfortable. Now I can barely pay my bills, and we can't afford summer holidays. #DownwardlyMobile, your name is Roamer. Part of being an academic in the UK, I accept it.

Today I sit in this beautiful vast garden, harvesting memories of past self-images. I have books with me; van der Waerden's Algebra I, the German edition, since you ask. Mathematics is best expressed in German, and best by writers to whom it is a second language. His German is up there with Thomas Mann or Goethe.

A day off. Quiet reflection. A supremely elegant Saluki by my side. A supremely elegant book in my hands.

It is important to be thankful. This is not an image in and en upon itself.
This photograph was composed from a sample a food that was given to me, because I'm in dire need of assistance, to get projects within my IT Technology fields of expertise.

Due to the horrific situation in my country, the enormous amount of inflation, combined with very questionable political figures ruining the whole economic system and landscape for decades, Many businesses have collapsed, including those that I've given Open Source service and support to for decades.

So when one of those businesses which luckily does not reside in my country but is remote, has a top level manager who is also friend, decides to jump in and help no questions asked, it is only fair to be thankful.

That energy of gratitude shall be reflected through the Universe ti that Friend and everyone else who reads this

Trump a dépêché son ex-avocat Todd Blanche, devenu numéro 2 du département de la Justice à la prison de Ghislaine Maxwell, ex-compagne de Epstein, pour la rencontrer. "Si je veux la gracier, j'en ai le droit", a déclaré le président dans la foulée, alors qu'elle a été condamnée pour trafic sexuel. Le "deal" proposé semble évident... Les Etats-Unis sont désormais une nation sans foi ni loi, sauf peut-être celle du plus fort.

It’s amazing how #appreciation for experience expands with #time and #memory. I’ll be forever grateful to Sra. Cruz-Romo for allowing a truly unseasoned #soprano to gain knowledge through her foresight and #grace.

Here is a playlist of an album of arias from Verdi operas she recorded for the label Urtext » youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK
