Thankful # 3


Yes, 2 thankful posts in one day.

I'm thankful for art and art museums, especially in these economical times. One can argue if Brandeis has the right to sell their art collection or not. I'm not going to add that discussion.

The end result is that the current economy has hurt everyone. We, all, have bills to pay with our uncertain jobs. Even universities have bills to pay. Everyone will have to take some tough measures to make it through this scary period.


While you can , go and visit an art museum, especially the free museums. While you are in these free museums enjoying their treasures, give them a dollar or five or whatever you can afford. Enjoy the art that is still available to us.

Heck, why not give another dollor or two to your favorite charity? I believe that in these tough times, we all need to help each other. Remember that someone is suffering more than you are. We still need to help others less fortunate than ourselves. We still need to feed our souls, by looking at and enjoying art and by helping others.


I am thankful for art.
