Lions and tigers and FRIENDS, Oh My!!


Today, my classmate and I had a visit from a friend who moved from Italy three years ago. It was a wonderful chance to catch up on new happenings in life, and to laugh about the past good ol' days.

Today's blog is simple, cherish your friends. It is amazing how quickly you remember a small happening when you sit down and just start chatting. How quickly you realize that a good laugh truly is medicine for the soul. What would The Wizard of Oz have been like if Dorothy did not take the scarecrow off that pole, or oil the TinMan or stand up to that Big, ferocious (ya right), cowardly lion? A movie of a girl and a dog, that would not need fields of poppies to put people to sleep! But put them all together and you end up with a movie that withstands centuries of development of technology and "better films", because it was about establishing bonds (and of course melting the Wicked Witch of the West).
