It is easy to be amazed, even astonished in the presence of beauty. But it is just as easy to forget it, given how easily distracted we are by so many things. If it is true that what we pay attention to, we remember; and what we remember becomes our anticipated future, then we don\u2019t just recall beauty for the sake of itself, we do so in order to shape the futures of our lives that we anticipate. And this is as much true for the parts of our stories that are traumatized as those for which we have fond memories.\n\xa0\nListen in as Pepper and Curt wade into how committing beauty to memory doesn\u2019t just remind us of a past we love; it transforms our past traumas into futures we would otherwise find hard to imagine.\n\xa0\n. . . .\nEpisode Links and References\nArtistic Offering discussed today:\xa0Shawshank Redemption movie\nArtistic Offering for next week: Gustav Holst; "Jupiter, The Bringer of Jollity"\n\xa0\n. . . . .\nSpecial Thanks for our Season Sponsor - Compassion International\nThe world is currently facing a devastating global food crisis caused from numerous variables: the war in Ukraine, fertilizer shortages, effects of COVID-19, and extreme weather, just to name a few.
