In our fast-paced world, it's easy to overlook the essence of what truly matters. This quote is a powerful reminder to cherish and fight for the values and causes that give our lives meaning. Whether it's love, freedom, justice, or the pursuit of happiness, these ideals illuminate the path of a life well-lived. Let's not wait for moments of crisis to recognize what's genuinely important. Instead, let's live every day in alignment with those principles worth standing up for, even in the face of adversity. By doing so, we honor not only ourselves but also those who have fought for these rights in the past. Remember, it's the things we're willing to defend to the end that truly define us. Let this be a call to action: to live passionately and purposefully, making every moment count for something bigger than ourselves.

Try this, I think you'll like it.

10 great books over the next ten days. Books that I’ve enjoyed reading and re-reading.

Catch 22. The first book that my dad gave me (apart from the bloody bible) as a young adult with a “try this, I think you’ll like it.”

The first time Yossarian saw the Chaplain he fell in love with him. A perfect opening sentence to draw you in. It worked for me.

About the bible - stupid, hated it and all the baggage that went with it, still do.

In the beginning. Rubbish opening line. On a par with once upon a time.

#JosephHeller's #Catch22 is tonight's entry for #BannedBooksWeek. On the lighter-side of #bannedbooks we have "Catch-22" by Joseph Heller. This is a humorous novel of a bombardier trapped in a no-win situation of military bureaucracy. If you've seen Toledo, Ohio's own Jamie Farr as Klinger on the TV show M*A*S*H, he tries to get out of the Korean War by wearing dresses to seem unstable. Alas, the very act of trying to get away from the war proves he's not actually crazy. It's a Catch-22! (at Bonnett's Book Store) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ciw1IpVOE2P/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

In the words of Joseph Heller, I learned how to write better, even though it sought of Irks me. He said he didn’t understand the process of the imagination but he felt he was at its mercy. #strotherpt #catch22 #newyork #imagination #coldfront #newyork #lowereastside #josephheller (at Lower East Side) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNN0pabAs_F/?igshid=10g8azfd4s3qq

I have been gently encouraging my fourteen-year-old to pick up a classic or two during our school closures. I was pleased to hear him laughing over this one early on in our readathon today. . . #deweys24hourreadathon #readathon #catch22 #josephheller https://www.instagram.com/p/B_aHg93ABda/?igshid=188febscg0y8c
