Nick has six novels and a collection of short stories under his belt, but A Forty Year Kiss may be his first love story.  His mind was set to wondering after he overheard a passionate conversation in his favorite local bar between two older people, a conversation that made him blush just a little. He began playing with the idea of what this couple's back story was. Nick's book asks readers to consider the difference between first love and love between mature adults, how life's baggage affects personal relationships, and whether people can really change.    Nick also talks to us about his rural Wisconsin roots, why he read Babysitter Club books in his childhood, and the debate on whether he should wear a cape.     For our book recommendation section of this episode, we decided to find some of our favorite books we've read as a result of being in a book club together for two decades. For the most part, our book club chooses novels, but there is one memoir in the lot, as well as contemporary fiction, historical fiction, sci-fi, and a classic.    Books Discussed in this Episode:   1- A Forty Year Kiss by Nickolas Butler   2- Shotgun Lovesongs by Nickolas Butler   3- A Paris Year by Janice MacLeod   4- Godspeed by Nickolas Butler    5- Love, Hope & Carnage by Nick Cave and Sean O'Hagan   6- The Fertile Earth and the Ordered Cosmos edited by M.

15 DE ABRIL - SAN DAMIÁN DE MOLOKAI, SACERDOTE MISIONERO

"Me quedo con mis leprosos toda mi vida"

En Kalawao, de la isla de Molokai, San Damián de Veuster, presbítero de la Congregación de Misioneros de los Sagrados Corazones de Jesús y de María, entregó su vida a la asistencia material y espiritual de los leprosos, terminando él mismo contagiado de esta enfermedad, pues se fue a la isla a donde mandaron a todos los leprosos para que no contagiaran. Es el patrón de los leprosos, marginados, enfermos de sida y del Estado de Hawáii.Con tu ayuda podremos continuar con este proyecto: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=GZMHJDMXG8L22&fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAabzPiBLoj2NefLbiwGBbXS1Ckn9xG8o9stwEGRXwQnsnoRllvac_CUJ_cU_aem_oPr5pU3Gmbo2qA3t6j-zkg

In this episode of The Daily Windup, we talk about the challenges and solutions faced by the Hawaiian community during the pandemic. We talk about collaborations with the Governor of Hawaii to tackle the high unemployment rate caused by the travel industry's collapse. Through brainstorming sessions and identifying various problems, they developed a groundbreaking initiative—creating a university to train individuals in STEM fields and provide opportunities for technological advancements. One of the major hurdles they encountered was the lack of high-speed internet access on certain islands, such as Molokai. So a unique solution called "university in a box" was born. This innovative approach involved a specialized version of XF 5,000, an application capable of running offline on laptops. Students could access all the university's resources and training material without an internet connection and periodically synchronize their progress during visits to designated locations with high-speed internet. Join us in this insightful episode as we explore the transformative power of education and technology in rebuilding communities and fostering economic growth.

Becca Mann is a writer and athlete. A member of the USA Swimming National Team from 2012 until 2021, Becca is a 2x USA National Champion and was the youngest person ever to place in the Top 10 in 4 events at a single Olympic Trials. She has also represented Team USA at 4 World Championships. Becca initially fell in love with the solitude, power and efficiency that swimming offered but was ultimately motivated by the ability to consistently achieve goals. Whether moving to a more advanced lane, breaking a school record, breaking a state record or becoming a world champion, each small goal led to an even bigger one. No matter how big the goal was, her mindset stayed the same. She maintained the same pre-race routine (as it had worked before) and reminded herself that every meet was the most important meet of her life. After missing her 3rd Olympic team, she decided that if she was going to walk away, she would need to do something that had never been done before. With clear understanding and mastery of her mental strengths and vulnerabilities including OCD, she became the first person to have consecutively swum the triangle between the Hawaiian islands of Maui, Molokai, and Lanai. This life defining experience allowed her to redefine her relationship with swimming and reminded herself that it is supposed to be fun. Becca Mann shares her struggles, insights and knowledge in her latest book, “Outside the Lanes.” @becca__mann

TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜ https://www.bastabugie.it/it/articoli.php?id=8104L'INUTILITA' DELLA EVANGELIZZAZIONE ''DI STRADA'' di Don Stefano Bimbi Quando si parla di evangelizzazione molti sono convinti che la Chiesa nel passato si sia arroccata troppo nelle sue posizioni e nelle sue strutture mostrando alle persone un volto freddo e distante. Di conseguenza bisognerebbe evangelizzare, ma senza mettersi in contrasto con il mondo. La gente smetterebbe così di considerare la Chiesa come un posto pieno di rigidi moralisti che vogliono insegnarle cosa fare, inizierebbero a vederla come una realtà più vicina alla loro mentalità e la seguirebbero.Ma è così? Ovviamente no. Quando Gesù invia i settantadue discepoli dice riguardo a quelle case dove troveranno accoglienza: «Restate in quella casa, mangiando e bevendo di quello che hanno, perché chi lavora ha diritto alla sua ricompensa. Non passate da una casa all'altra» (Lc 10,5-8).Restate in quella casa, altro che girare per le strade distribuendo volantini e improvvisando prediche! Eppure oggi ci sono sacerdoti ed educatori che coinvolgono giovani per la cosiddetta evangelizzazione di strada. Tempo fa un gruppo cattolico ha organizzato giornate al mare dove i ragazzi e le ragazze invitavano le persone a ballare con loro per cercare in qualche modo di convertirle. Due anni fa è diventato famoso per qualche giorno un sacerdote milanese, don Mattia Bernasconi, che ha celebrato in costume la Santa Messa su un materassino nel mare di Crotone. Sì, è vero che poi il suddetto sacerdote ha chiesto scusa sul sito della parrocchia, ma ci ha tenuto a precisare che «una signora mi ha ringraziato dicendomi che si era sentita raggiunta dalla Chiesa anche in spiaggia». Il bello è che lui ci crede davvero che sia così.Dov'è dunque l'errore di queste esperienze? Il problema è che manca all'evangelizzazione un requisito fondamentale: la stabilità. «Restate in quella casa» ricordava Gesù. Facendo la cosiddetta "pastorale da strada", cioè andando in giro ad attaccare bottone con persone a caso per parlargli di fede al massimo si potrà ottenere qualche domanda di curiosità, forse qualcuno dirà una preghiera, visiterà una chiesa o si confesserà, ma è praticamente impossibile suscitare conversioni profonde e durature.LE SANTE AMICIZIELo stesso errore lo fanno quei cristiani che, dimenticando che la spiritualità cristiana consiglia caldamente le sante amicizie, continuano a frequentare ordinariamente amici non cristiani giustificandolo con il fatto che ogni tanto gli parlano di fede. Quando gli fai notare che tutto questo non ha mai portato a nulla, cioè che nessuno di quegli amici si è mai convertito realmente, questi cristiani non rispondono all'obiezione, ma affermano che è bene rimanere lo stesso in questi gruppi per "dare testimonianza". Se San Benedetto avesse ragionato così, oggi non avremmo l'Europa come la conosciamo. Invece preferì allontanarsi dalla città perché lì gli era difficile cercare Dio. Fu così che fondò i monasteri per coloro che accorrevano a lui. E qual era il voto che richiedeva ai suoi monaci? Il voto di stabilità, cioè restare in quel luogo, come chiedeva Gesù nel brano ricordato all'inizio.Insomma quand'è che si ottengono conversioni, o almeno si ottengono molto più facilmente e in maniera più duratura e profonda? Questo accade quando c'è un gruppo di cristiani ferventi che attirano a sé nuovi membri in quello che è a tutti gli effetti una piccola società. Gesù ha scelto di fondare la Chiesa, cioè una società stabile di credenti. Gli apostoli compresero bene la lezione e infatti dovunque andavano ad annunciare il Vangelo fondavano comunità con a capo un presbitero perché si potesse vivere la fede comunitariamente. Queste comunità erano organizzate in tutti gli aspetti, un po' come dovrebbero essere oggi le parrocchie. Gli uomini hanno bisogno di essere inseriti in una comunità per raggiungere il bene, sia dal punto di vista naturale che soprannaturale. Il metodo della Chiesa per annunciare il Vangelo è sempre stato quello di stabilirsi in un posto raccogliendo tutte le persone di buona volontà e iniziando a fondare un nuovo tipo di società. Il resto è solo una conseguenza. Infatti all'interno delle comunità cristiane nascono amicizie, società lavorative, svaghi, cultura, matrimoni, ecc. Quando nascono i figli ci si pone il problema di come educarli e quindi i genitori, sotto la supervisione della Chiesa, daranno vita a scuole parentali.NON PUÒ RESTARE NASCOSTA UNA CITTÀ COLLOCATA SOPRA UN MONTEA questo punto non ci sarà più bisogno di andare in giro a dialogare con il mondo, ma saranno le stesse comunità cristiane che attireranno a sé tante persone. È il concetto che esprime Gesù quando paragona la Chiesa ad una città sopra un monte: «Voi siete la luce del mondo; non può restare nascosta una città collocata sopra un monte, né si accende una lucerna per metterla sotto il moggio, ma sopra il lucerniere perché faccia luce a tutti quelli che sono nella casa. Così risplenda la vostra luce davanti agli uomini, perché vedano le vostre opere buone e rendano gloria al vostro Padre che è nei cieli» (Mt 5,14-16). Sentendo dire che la Chiesa è una città sopra al monte si potrebbe pensare che è chiusa in sé stessa e che quindi non porti davvero il Vangelo a tutte le creature, ma non è così. La città sopra il monte è disposta ad accogliere tutti gli uomini del mondo, purché si sottomettano alle sue regole, abbandonino il mondo e si mettano umilmente fra le sue braccia. Ben venga il malvagio se si converte, altrimenti no perché non è giusto contaminare la comunità. Nemmeno il Padre misericordioso della famosa parabola va dal figlio prodigo, ma attende fino a quando questi non riconosce i suoi errori e solo allora lo riammette nella comunità.Tutto questo non sminuisce l'eccellente dedizione con cui i missionari hanno evangelizzato i cinque continenti in duemila anni di storia cristiana. Ma questi avevano ben chiaro che dovevano fondare comunità stabili, come ad esempio le riduzioni gesuite sviluppate nel Paraguay. Oppure San Damiano De Veuster che andò alle Hawaii nell'isola di Molokai dove avevano ghettizzato i lebbrosi. Rischiava la vita e infatti morì di lebbra con loro. Ma cosa fece nell'isola? Fondò una comunità cristiana strutturandola in tutti i suoi aspetti.In conclusione va detto che la Chiesa non potrà mai e poi mai scendere dal monte per fare un compromesso con la città degli uomini nel vano tentativo di accattivarsi più persone. E questo per un motivo semplice: la Chiesa non ha nessun bisogno del mondo perché il mondo non ha niente da offrire a chi ha Gesù Cristo. Piuttosto è il mondo ad avere un bisogno disperato della Chiesa e del suo divino Redentore. Le comunità cristiane, forti della rassicurazione di Gesù che ha detto «Non abbiate paura, io ho vinto il mondo» (Gv 16,33) non temeranno di testimoniare la loro Fede semplicemente vivendo il Vangelo e accogliendo tutti i figli prodighi che saranno alla ricerca di un po' di verità, di bontà e di bellezza. A chi dicesse che oggi non si trovano comunità cristiane come sono state descritte in questo articolo va ricordato che è tempo di tornare a fondarle. Altro che evangelizzazione di strada!

Humpbacks start appearing as early as mid-fall, but daily sightings don't happen until mid-December. We're practically in the middle of the season so I thought I'd do a podcast about when is whale watching season in Hawaii. The optimal whale watching period in Hawaii extends from mid-February to March when the whales display their most active behavior. Visitors can expect the highest number of sightings between November and May. The most active period to view these magnificent animals takes place between mid-February and March. The best moments to observe whales occur early in the morning and late in the afternoon, since whales breach and surface most often during these times Whale watching in Hawaii in January Best Locations to see Humbacks Maui tops the list as the perfect spot to see humpback whales because of an extraordinary underwater area known as Penguin Banks. The shallow waters southwest of Molokai serve as a breeding area for humpback whales. When is whale watching season in Hawaii journey will be delightfully rewarding when it takes you there. Oahu -Diamond Head offers an excellent viewing area for observing younger whales who display playful behaviors.Photographers frequently choose Makapu'u Point & Ka'iwi Coast to capture whale activity because it indicates whales are close by. The Ala Wai Boat Harbor and Kewalo Basin serve as primary departure points for numerous tour boats which enhances your expedition success rate. Kauai - Poipu Beach combined with Kilauea Lighthouse on Kauai offers excellent opportunities for whale watching from land. Big Island - Visitors to the Big Island can frequently spot humpback whales near the Kohala Coast. Taking Whale Watching Tours Viewing stations near the Makapuu Lighthouse means you can learn about the humpback whales as you look for them. Although you will have multiple opportunities to see whales, when is whale watching season in Hawaii during a tour? There is no certainty you will spot them. Successful whale watching requires both patience and a touch of luck. There are whale-watching tours which use marine radio Channel 14 to share whale locations with other boats to improve your whale sighting opportunities. Whales perform a dramatic act known as breaching when they leap out of the water which creates a truly spectacular sight. Look for misty water spouts emerging from their blowholes during the whale blowing behavior. Whales demonstrate playful behavior by hitting their tails against the water's surface during tail slaps.The majority of boats assist you in whale spotting, yet occasionally they will take you by surprise with sightings of spinner dolphins, pilot whales, or false killer whales. Whale watching from a boat on Maui is a popular way to way to see Whales Tips for the Best Whale Watching Experience Obviously, whales do not follow a schedule so take the time to appreciate your surroundings while you wait for them. Carrying binoculars improves your ability to see whales from far away. Many people forget to enjoy the present because they focus too much on obtaining the ideal photo. Enjoy the experience!Smaller boats deliver intimate whale watching experiences despite big tours being entertaining. Choose a reliable tour operator because companies such as the Pacific Whale Foundation on Maui demonstrate expertise while supporting conservation work. Can You Swim with Humpback Whales? People do actually ask me this and of course it's NO!! If you're lucky enough to be near one while swimming, staying as far away as possible can be dangerous. Humpback whales in Hawaii cannot be swum with as it's against regulations. Approaching these magnificent creatures poses legal risks and physical dangers because they receive protection. Some tours offer the experience of swimming with wild dolphins.

2/26/25 - St. Damien was a Belgian priest who answered God's call to minister to the lepers of Molokai, Hawaii in the late 19th century. Leaving behind his home and family, St. Damien selflessly devoted himself to caring for those exiled to the isolated leper colony, providing not only medical care, but also spiritual support. He built churches, schools, and homes, offering the love and dignity of Christ to those society had abandoned. Despite contracting leprosy himself and ultimately dying from the disease, St. Damien's unwavering faith and commitment to the marginalized can teach us a lot about the Catholic Church's mission to serve the poorest and most vulnerable.

Full Text of ReadingsThursday of the Second Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 314The Saint of the day is Saint Marianne CopeSaint Marianne Cope's Story Though leprosy scared off most people in 19th-century Hawaii, that disease sparked great generosity in the woman who came to be known as Mother Marianne of Molokai. Her courage helped tremendously to improve the lives of its victims in Hawaii, a territory annexed to the United States during her lifetime (1898). Mother Marianne's generosity and courage were celebrated at her May 14, 2005, beatification in Rome. She was a woman who spoke “the language of truth and love” to the world, said Cardinal José Saraiva Martins, prefect of the Congregation for Saints' Causes. Cardinal Martins, who presided at the beatification Mass in St. Peter's Basilica, called her life “a wonderful work of divine grace.” Speaking of her special love for persons suffering from leprosy, he said, “She saw in them the suffering face of Jesus. Like the Good Samaritan, she became their mother.” On January 23, 1838, a daughter was born to Peter and Barbara Cope of Hessen-Darmstadt, Germany. The girl was named after her mother. Two years later the Cope family emigrated to the United States and settled in Utica, New York. Young Barbara worked in a factory until August 1862, when she went to the Sisters of the Third Order of Saint Francis in Syracuse, New York. After profession in November of the next year, she began teaching at Assumption parish school. Marianne held the post of superior in several places and was twice the novice mistress of her congregation. A natural leader, three different times she was superior of St. Joseph's Hospital in Syracuse, where she learned much that would be useful during her years in Hawaii. Elected provincial in 1877, Mother Marianne was unanimously re-elected in 1881. Two years later the Hawaiian government was searching for someone to run the Kakaako Receiving Station for people suspected of having leprosy. More than 50 religious communities in the United States and Canada were asked. When the request was put to the Syracuse sisters, 35 of them volunteered immediately. On October 22, 1883, Mother Marianne and six other sisters left for Hawaii where they took charge of the Kakaako Receiving Station outside Honolulu; on the island of Maui they also opened a hospital and a school for girls. In 1888, Mother Marianne and two sisters went to Molokai to open a home for “unprotected women and girls” there. The Hawaiian government was quite hesitant to send women for this difficult assignment; they need not have worried about Mother Marianne! On Molokai she took charge of the home that Saint Damien de Veuster had established for men and boys. Mother Marianne changed life on Molokai by introducing cleanliness, pride, and fun to the colony. Bright scarves and pretty dresses for the women were part of her approach. Awarded the Royal Order of Kapiolani by the Hawaiian government and celebrated in a poem by Robert Louis Stevenson, Mother Marianne continued her work faithfully. Her sisters have attracted vocations among the Hawaiian people and still work on Molokai. Mother Marianne died on August 9, 1918, was beatified in 2005, and canonized seven years later. Reflection The government authorities were reluctant to allow Mother Marianne to be a mother on Molokai. Thirty years of dedication proved their fears unfounded. God grants gifts regardless of human shortsightedness and allows those gifts to flower for the sake of the kingdom. Click here for more on Saint Marianne Cope!

Amy Gubser Amy Gubser, is an extraordinary 56-year-old grandmother who this year became the first person ever to complete an unassisted swim from the Golden Gate Bridge in SF to the Farallon Islands - a 30-mile stretch of cold, shark-infested waters off the California coast. Moreover, what makes this achievement even more remarkable is that Amy only started her marathon swimming journey aged 46.Throughout a fascinating conversation, Amy describes her path from early morning swims in San Francisco Bay through increasingly arduous challenges, including consequently crossing the treacherous North Channel between Ireland and Scotland. Furthermore, Amy shares her insights into the physical and mental preparation required for ultra-marathon swimming, from nutrition strategies to managing the understandable fear of great white sharks and jellyfish swarms.In addition to her swimming achievements, Amy discusses how her work as a nurse has informed her mental toughness, the importance of breaking age-related stereotypes, and as a result, her mission to inspire others - especially women - to pursue ambitious goals at any age.With upcoming swims planned for Scotland's deep and mysterious Loch Ness, therefore Amy is proof that human potential knows no bounds when matched with determination, careful preparation, and above all her simple mantra: 'I can do hard things.'Amy's story is an inspiring reminder that it's never too late to pursue extraordinary achievements.
