1,734 days until a hundred

With every problem come many challenges.  Reaching one’s hundredth birthday is not an everyday event.  As a former professor of child and family policy I know there are many life gaps.  As a holocaust victim I see Global Healing as one form of responding to the many global dilemmas we face.  Like a magnet I am drawn to the arts, in this instance music composition.  I’m seeking an individual or group who would create the first Global Healing Symphony.  I thought of your work and your institution as a model based on what you have done in the past and the present.  I knock on your door and wonder whether you or a group could be persuaded to embrace the first Global Healing Symphony to be played on my birthday in 1,734           days.  The symphony would demonstrate the healing nature that it transmits and and allow it to grow.  Parenthetically each time the symphony is performed it also accrues i...

My neighbor left the most thoughtful children’s story which she had written two yes ago. The title of the book says it all: My Two Cities. The biography is about Hanni who 12 years was old when the German Anschluss occurred.

I have yet to find the most appropriate time to interview her, we have spoken on the telephone and have plans to make a ‘zoom date’ soon.
