Samson and Delilah
A Tough Act to Follow
While searching for music for Christmas and the New Year, I stumbled on a Spanish site that proclaimed that Aigul Akhmetshina has the greatest voice in the world. Well, she has a wonderful voice, no doubt about it, but you can listen and decide for yourself. She is Russian, as is the absolutely excellent conductor Vladimir Spivakov.

There is more I want to share about my visits (three of them) to Afghanistan and then I would like to discuss the events of 2023 and what I see for 2024.
Somewhat after the camels pulled Rimmerfjord out of the mud, I was shown a place where Jesus was depicted sitting in lotus posture. I know this is controversial for some, but there are three missing years in the recorded life history . . . and some additional possibilities that most people would find hard to accept.
As we know, once the war started, a lot of treasures were bombed. I don’t know what survived this savagery, but I feel blessed to have rich memories of the paintings shown to me.
