TW - POVERTY AWARENESS QUOTE 6
Wednesday, January 10, 2024
“America is the wealthiest nation on Earth, but its people are mainly poor, and poor Americans are urged to hate themselves…. It is in fact a crime for an American to be poor, even though America is a nation of poor. Every other nation has folk traditions of men who were poor but extremely wise and virtuous, and therefore more estimable than anyone with power and gold. No such tales are told by American poor. They mock themselves and glorify their betters.” – Kurt Vonnegut, Slaughterhouse-Five

“If this isn’t nice, I don’t know what is.” Me and the wife and the two dogs and the cat all piled into the bed at bedtime is pretty nice. 🙂 The quote comes from a story Kurt Vonnegut told about his uncle. I think it’s a good idea to pause now and again and appreciate things. 🙂 #kurtvonnegutquote #nicethingsinlife #nicemoments #watercolordoodles #sappypost #sentimentality #gagmewithaspoon https://www.instagram.com/p/Co9GLzfubaE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#AquariusMoon be like... "No moral value is greater than #humanity." - Kurt Vonnegut 🪐💫🌟⚡️(truer words have never been spoken, given the emotionally charged times in which we live today.) . . Thanks to all of you who have been liking and engaging with our #moonbelike series. 🤩😍😇I want to address those of you who may be like "I know my sun sign, but I honestly don't know my moon sign. Why should I care? " 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️ Good question! . . Well, unlike your Sun, which in astrology represents your life force, your vitality and how you express your individuality, the astrological moon represents your emotional profile - how you instinctively and subconsciously respond to life events, your ancestral roots, maternal/family conditioning, and how you prefer to be nurtured and cared for. . . I like to say that we are here on this earthly plane to reach for the highest and most evolved expression of our Sun sign, but that comes through a mastery of our emotions. (shout out to the late great master astrologer Noel Tyl, who expressed this sentiment more elegantly). . . At any rate, knowing your natal moon placement is vital information. It will help you develop a deeper understanding of your most basic, primal and instinctual needs and wants, and how you should best go about meeting them through your own efforts and through your relationships with others. And who doesn't want to be successful in our relationships? . . . When you book a natal chart reading with Truthseeker Astrology, we will explore your emotional profile by looking at your natal moon placement - its sign, house and aspects it makes to other planets and angles in your chart). There's no better time than now to make an investment in knowledge that will for certain help you get (re)acquainted with yourself. . . . #sunincapricorn #capricornseason #mooninaquarius♒ #uranusintaurus♉ #venusincapricorn #saturnjupiter #bookasession #bookareading #11thouse #moonphases #lunations #kurtvonnegutquotes #chironchronicles (at West Philadelphia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ_gnvLHe7G/?igshid=1p6b0e0sevceq

SYD SOLOMON (1917-2004) “Here, in simple English, is what Syd Solomon does: He meditates. He connects his hand and paintbrush to the deeper, quieter, more mysterious parts of his mind- and he paints pictures of what he sees and feels down there.” -Kurt Vonnegut Jr. from Palm Sunday, 1981 [Syd Solomon “Blue Reach” 1986 acrylic and aerosol enamel on canvas 36 x 40 inches] Retrospective on view at the John and Mable Ringling Museum, Sarasota, Florida, through January 2021. #sydsolomon #solomon #kurtvonnegut #kurtvonnegutquotes #abstractexpressionism #expressionism #abstraction #spraypaint #museumexhibition #retrospective #artmuseum #sarasota #artgallery #nycart #chelseagalleries #estaterepresentation #berrycampbell (at Berry Campbell) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCj4_pPlqmr/?igshid=8a4n494z3zhr

One of my favorite parts of a typical Kurt Vonnegut story is when he throws in a quick summary of a science/speculative fiction idea, usually through his literary alter ego Kilgore Trout.

(Allllways loves #vonnegut and his #storydiagram FIND WHAT MAKES YOU AND PURSUE THAT RABBIT HOLE ENDLESSLY. Neglect the coping/comfort yearns of our addictively “entertaining” and hypnotic world to become a daily or weekly student/practitioner of all things related to your growth and the growth of your vision/projects🎬🧠Like college with the degrees.. it’s ok.. accepted.. and encouraged that you switch majors and disciplines as you grow📚🎟This is but one of many ways in how you transcend being the person that’s not serving your future you anymore.. confidence issues fade.. and you peers/friends/partners enhance exponentially, but not limited to🚨🖤Happy #writerslunchtimetips 💎🎟💎) . Repost @ldmichelsen @tonyay84 @jacquelinethefrostqueen @junglejuice40 @crystal_tribe111 @poetic_outlaws ・・・ Once upon a time there was an American author named Kurt Vonnegut. For his master’s thesis in anthropology for the University of Chicago he had an idea about the structure of stories. The basic idea was that a story’s main character has ups and downs that can be graphed to reveal the stories. He said once in an interview that the thesis “was rejected because it was so simple and looked like too much fun.” I came across this while doing research for my BA thesis and thought this was interesting. It’s a different take on the structure of stories. I didn’t realise the similarities between the New Testament and Cinderella 😅😂 What do you find most interesting from or about Vonnegut’s story shapes? 📖 Disclaimer: Photo designed by Maya Eilam (mayaeilam.com) Sources: A Man without a Country and Palm Sunday by Kurt Vonnegut . . . . . #ldmichelsen #shapesofstories #kurtvonnegut #kurtvonnegutquote #literaturelovers #storystructure #storyteller #writer #writinglife #writingcommunity #athomewriting #igwriter #screenwriting #selftaughtscreenwriting #screenwriterspirit #scriptchat #screenwriterslife #dyslexicscreenwriters #storybreachtv #indiescreenwriter #screenwriterslife #writersoulsupport #justkeepwriting #indiehollywood #writersbynight #screenwriter #writersworkoutbuddy #storybreach https://www.instagram.com/p/B8uGHIGg56S/?igshid=410kxqjttzs5
