Zoals wel vaker neemt één van ons een verhaal mee om de ander mee te verrassen. Vandaag een gedicht, If, van schrijver Rudyard Kipling. Een gedicht met een zeer stoïcijnse toon, als wordt het niet benoemd of zo omschreven. Kipling is een strenge, maar vooral beheerste schrijver. Totdat Joost iets meer over deze schrijver onthult...

Simon1025GDP Script/ Top Stories for August 26th Publish Date: August 26th PRE-ROLL: From The BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Tuesday, August 26th and Happy Birthday to Melissa McCarthy I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia Duluth's Notre Dame Academy celebrates two decades of 'seeing every student' Former Kennedy Center manager returns to Gwinnett to lead Lawrenceville Arts Center Dick Goodman remembered for support of libraries, Suwanee community All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! Break 1: Kia MOG (07.14.22 KIA MOG) STORY 1: Duluth's Notre Dame Academy celebrates two decades of 'seeing every student' For nearly 20 years, Julie Derucki has started her mornings the same way: a long commute, a quiet walk through the halls flipping on lights, and then, at 7:50 a.m., she’s at the front door, greeting every single student with warmth and intention. Rain, shine, freezing cold—it doesn’t matter. It’s her thing. Notre Dame Academy, a Marist Catholic school in Duluth, has spent 20 years building more than just academics. It’s a community—a village, really—where students are seen, known, and loved. Teacher Regan Jolley-Sherman felt it the moment she interviewed. From international potlucks to family picnics, Notre Dame celebrates its people. And while academics matter, Derucki’s focus is clear: raising empathetic, grounded leaders. STORY 2: Former Kennedy Center manager returns to Gwinnett to lead Lawrenceville Arts Center Daniela Esteves is coming back to Gwinnett, and this time, she’s taking the reins as complex general manager of the Lawrenceville Arts Center. Most recently with the Kennedy Center in D.C., Esteves has done it all—programming, marketing, event management, you name it. She even spent a couple of years at Gas South District in Duluth before heading north. Lawrenceville’s Arts Center isn’t just a venue—it’s a hub for connection and culture. And with Esteves at the helm, it’s poised to thrive. STORY 3: Dick Goodman remembered for support of libraries, Suwanee community Dick Goodman wore many hats in his 83 years—city councilman, PR pro, photographer, library advocate, and the first chair of Suwanee’s Public Art Commission. But more than titles, he was a storyteller, a community builder, and a man who poured his heart into everything he touched. Goodman passed away last week, leaving behind a legacy that’s woven into the fabric of Suwanee. After moving to Suwanee in 2006, it didn’t take long for him to dive in. By 2009, he was on the City Council, later chairing the Gwinnett Library Board for eight years. Today, a room at the Suwanee library bears his name—a fitting tribute for someone who championed the power of stories. Even in his final hours, Goodman was at a Suwanee planning meeting, still giving back. His family is now raising funds to make the “Novel Idea” sculpture—a granite bench shaped like books—a permanent part of the library he loved so much. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: MONSTER JAM STORY 4: Pirates of Lanier Charity Poker Run set for September For over a decade, the Pirates of Lanier Charity Poker Run has been a highlight for boaters on Lake Lanier, and this year, it’s getting a shake-up. Zach Martin, a longtime participant, is stepping in as the 2025 organizer, and he’s bringing back the big powerboats. This year’s event, running Sept. 12-13, will benefit K9s for Warriors and the Foster Care Support Foundation—causes close to Martin’s heart. The weekend will feature everything from a helicopter photoshoot to raft-ups at Cocktail Cove, with nightly stops at Margaritaville and Lanier Islands Resort. For details, visit www.lanierislands.com. STORY 5: Discount retailer Burlington opening store in Lawrenceville Lawrenceville’s about to get a new spot for bargain hunters—Burlington is opening a store at the Shoppes at Creekside, right off State Route 316 at 860 Duluth Highway. The grand opening? Sometime this fall. Burlington’s pitch? Big brands, small prices—up to 60% less than other retailers. Clothes, shoes, home decor, beauty products, baby gear, even pet toys—it’s all there. And the new store will feature their updated layout with bold signs and organized aisles, making it easier to snag those deals. This will be Burlington’s 38th Georgia location and sixth in Gwinnett. They’re hiring now—apply at BurlingtonStores.jobs. We’ll be right back. Break: MONSTER JAM STORY 6: ART BEAT: Artist-photographer Debra Barnhart launches new Instagram site filled with wildlife Rudyard Kipling once called Yellowstone “a howling wilderness… full of unimaginable freaks of fiery nature.” Debra Barnhart? She saw it differently. Her February trip with National Geographic wasn’t easy. Snow, ice, and heavy camera gear tested her resolve. The result? Stunning wildlife photos—bison dusted in snow, a white owl, and more. Her new Instagram, Debra Barnhart Nature Photography, showcases it all. STORY 7: Georgia Bulldogs Readying for Saturday's Season Opener The Georgia Bulldogs are easing into the 2025 season, but don’t let that fool you—things are about to get intense. First up? Marshall this Saturday at Sanford Stadium. Then it’s straight into the SEC gauntlet: Tennessee, Alabama, Kentucky, Auburn, Ole Miss. Buckle up. On offense, it’s a new era. Gunner Stockton, the Rabun County legend, finally gets his shot after Carson Beck’s transfer. Stockton? He’s ready—quiet confidence, big arm, and a fresh set of weapons, including USC transfer Zachariah Branch and Illinois’ Josh McCray. Defense? Still Georgia’s pride. Sure, they’ve got holes to fill—NFL-sized ones—but returners like C.J. Allen and Daylen Everette are stepping up. Tackling? A work in progress, Smart admits. New faces, new challenges, same Georgia standard. Let’s see how it plays out. We’ll have closing comments after this.

This episode is brought to you by https://www.ElevateOS.com —the only all-in-one community operating system.Ever notice how the simplest words carry the most weight?In today's episode of the Multifam Collective, I unpack a quote from Rudyard Kipling: "Words are, of course, the most powerful drug used by mankind." That line hit me—and it got me thinking about the two most powerful words in the world of Multifamily leadership: please and thank you.These aren't just playground pleasantries. They're foundational tools in shaping culture, creating community, and leading with authenticity.In a world driven by speed, automation, and PropTech innovation, we sometimes forget the human side of the equation. Ironically, the word please is one of the most expensive tokens in Large Language Models like OpenAI's GPT.

Episode 593Donald Jeffries has been a researcher on the JFK assassination since the mid-1970s. His first novel, "The Unreals," was published in 2007. His first nonfiction book, "Hidden History: An Expose of Modern Crimes, Conspiracies, and Cover-Ups in American Politics," was released by Skyhorse Publishing in November 2014 and quickly became a best-seller. The paperback edition featured a new Foreword from Roger Stone. His writing has been compared to Voltaire by award-winning author Alexander Theroux, and likened to Rudyard Kipling and John Kennedy Toole's "A Confederacy of Dunces" by "Night at the Museum" screenwriter Robert Ben Garant. Jeffries' second nonfiction book, "Survival of the Richest" was released to universal critical acclaim in July 2017. His next book, "Crimes and Cover Ups in American Politics: 1776-1963" will be released in May 2019.

OIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ FOR THIS WEEK'S ASTROLOGICALLY SPEAKING PODCAST WHICH DROPS AUGUST 1 @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speakingThis podcast explores how the sexual scandal emanating from Jeffrey Epstein's pedophilia and trafficking of underage girls has gained traction within the collective since the Leo New Moon opposite Pluto in Aquarius monthly lunar cycle began July 24. And how now at the first quarter monthly lunar square's “crisis in action” of the Scorpio Moon/Leo Sun square on August 1 tension around this subject grows.Meanwhile, we look at wounded healer Chiron's retrograde in Aries on July 30 & explore what's occurred in the collective since, along with how Venus's entrance into Cancer that day has led to expressions of compassion for those who suffer. Take, for example, the declaration by the 22 League of Arab Nations at the U.N. for Hamas to end its rule in Gaza, hand over its weapons to the Palestinian Authority, & with international engagement and support, align with the objectives of a sovereign and independent Palestinian state,” that was signed by all 27 European Union states and 17 other countries on July 30. Coincidence or not, this was the day that wounded healer Chiron stationed retrograde & Venus entered compassionate, nurturing, Moon-ruled Cancer—which puts the current focus on children. As in the victims or sex trafficking AND the starving children in Gaza due to Israel & the U.S.'s insufficient method of distributing food aid there to date.July 31's Sun/Mercury retrograde's inferior function in Leo also led to the announcement by U.S. President Donald Trump of a new tariff deadline of August 7 for most nations who trade with the U.S.. Part of the Saturn/Pluto in Capricorn cycle's global realignment begun in January 2020, this announcement seeks to make the U.S. more isolationist rather than more committed to its previous global trade partners. It also has seriously negative implications for the U.S. economy as a revised job report shows a decrease in unemployment and a rise in the rate of inflation.We take a deeper dive into the meaning of this Sun/Mercury Rx inferior function during this podcast, which many will find enlightening, so have a listen as it's implications are for our personal lives, too…Meanwhile, Mars will enters Venus-ruled Libra August 6, posing the potential for some new negotiations that may better balance the scales in terms of global agreements on things like, you know, tariffs. Or at least we might hope so..."ONLY MAD DOGS AND ENGLISHMEN GO OUT IN THE NOON DAY SUN." ~ Attributed to Rudyard Kipling, but origin unverified…We examine also the current heliacal rising of fixed star Sirius (the Great Dog, or Canus Major) between July 3 & August 11 & its mythological roots, including that when Sirius rises in conjunction with the sun, the ancients believed this combination of the sun during the day and the star Sirius at night was responsible for the extreme heat during mid-summer.”In Greek mythology, Sirius was linked to the faithful hunting dog of Orion. Hellenistic astrology connected this period with heat, drought, sudden thunderstorms, lethargy, fever, mad dogs, and bad luck, & the hottest, most uncomfortable part of summer in the Northern Hemisphere. Astrologically, however, it's associated with success, leadership, and passion, while also being a source of inspiration and a warning against unchecked power. Hmm, “unchecked power,” eh? Now who do we think of when we hear that phrase, especially as the current Saturn/Neptune pair run close together in Aries right now, proactively dissolving previously solid foundational structures?Like in the U.S. Government, for example, as a compliant GOP-ruled Congress obeys in advance & kowtows to the executive branch, & the judicial branch struggles to maintain its previous independence out of respect for, & adherence to, its legal decisions. We explore more about this during this podcast…Finally, we explore the deeper meaning of the Aquarius Full Moon's call on August 9 to release any attachment to an aggrandized sense of self-worth & value at the expense of freedom for groups of individuals that would better mirror Aquarius's quest for humanitarian progress. Expect some dissonance later this month as this lunation—which has the Aquarius Moon reflecting the light of the Leo Sun back to itself, revealing its shadow side—squares Juno (the wife or partner) in Scorpio. It pays to remember that “hell hath no fury like a woman scorned” as we follow the progress of the case of convicted sex trafficker & perjurer Ghislaine Maxwell as she begs for the Supreme Court's attention to her case, which they have agreed to “discuss” in September.  Be sure to tune in to https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking for the latest podcast that drops today, August 1! See you there! Namaste…

The crew explores the multifaceted concept of what makes a good man, examining perspectives from cultural, societal, and biblical viewpoints. The hosts discuss the dangers of passivity, the importance of pursuing one's calling with passion, and the challenge of balancing personal ambitions with family responsibilities. They emphasize that being a good man is fundamentally about loving God, staying true to one's purpose, and continually moving forward despite challenges. The conversation highlights the significance of identity, strength, courage, and influence in defining masculinity. Ultimately, the episode suggests that being a good man is less about meeting external expectations and more about authentically following God's guidance and purpose. Chapters: 1. Introduction to the Topic (00:00:00) - The podcast hosts introduce the question "What makes a good man?" and discuss how perspectives on this can vary based on cultural, societal, and biblical expectations. 2. Defining Goodness (00:05:48) - The hosts explore the complexity of defining "good" and how different perspectives (cultural, Christian, Biblical) can shape understanding of what makes a good man. 3. Passivity vs. Pursuit (00:25:50) - The discussion centers on the dangers of passivity and the importance of moving forward, pursuing one's calling, and not being paralyzed by fear of making mistakes. 4. Balancing Family and Calling (00:31:02) - The hosts discuss the challenge of pursuing one's God-given purpose while maintaining strong family relationships, challenging the notion that these are separate paths. 5. Personal Experiences and Reflections (00:50:43) - Caleb shares a personal story about his father's approach to work and family, illustrating what he believes makes a good man. 6. Closing Thoughts (01:06:56) - Jason concludes the episode by recommending Rudyard Kipling's poem "If" and encouraging listeners to keep faith and stay in the fight.

Other highlights of this conversation are the Edenic ability of Mowgli to speak to the animals, the complex role of the serpent in folklore, and the resurrection imagery in this story.

In episode 469 of the Construction Leadership Podcast, host Bradley Hartmann shares insights on leading with poise based on the advice of Nick Murray. Nick Murray, the tribal elder among leading financial advisors, hails from outside the construction industry, yet his leadership advice is rooted in the tendencies of human nature that affect us all. Murray emphasizes emotional control, trusting thoughtful long-term plans, and viewing equity investments as company ownership rather than mere stocks.   The episode remarks on the “full-blown investor panic” that consumed the first half of 2025 and invokes the wisdom of Rudyard Kipling's poem “If,” as well, underscoring the importance of maintaining composure and empathy as leaders.   Thank you for listening!    This episode is brought to you by The Simple Sales Pipeline® —the most efficient way to organize and value any construction sales rep's roster of customers and prospects in under 30 minutes once every 30 days. *** If you enjoyed this podcast, please leave a review on Apple Podcasts.

Tonight, we'll read a story from “Just So Stories” by British author Rudyard Kipling published in 1902 titled “The Crab That Played with the Sea”. The book is a collection of origin stories. Kipling began working on the book by telling the first three chapters as bedtime stories to his daughter Josephine. These had to be told "just so" (exactly in the words she was used to) or she would complain. The stories illustrate how animals obtained their distinctive features, such as how the leopard got his spots. This particular story explains the ebb and flow of the tides, as well as how the crab changed from a huge animal into a small one. — read by 'N' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

Today on The Literary Life podcast, we begin a new series of episodes on The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling with our hosts Angelina Stanford, Cindy Rollins, and Thomas Banks! After sharing their commonplace quotes, each of them talks about their own reading histories with Rudyard Kipling's work. Thomas gives us some biographical information about Kipling and sets up the literary period in which he wrote. They then begin talking about the structure and form of this book as it is set up as a series of short stories as beast fables. Angelina shares some of the mythic and fairy tale elements she noticed while reading this first story, “Mowgli's Brothers.” They also discuss some of the challenges we face reading stories written in a different time and place without imposing our current views on all the literature of the period.

As long as there have been poets, they have been writing war elegies. In this episode, Mark and Seamus discuss responses to the American Civil War (Walt Whitman), both world wars (W.B. Yeats, Wilfred Owen, Rudyard Kipling, Keith Douglas) and the conflict in Northern Ireland (Michael Longley) to explore the way these very different poems share an ancient legacy. Spanning 160 years and energised by competing ideas of art and war, these soldiers, carers and civilians are united by a need that Mark and Seamus suggest is at the root of poetry, to memorialise the dead in words.

Get access to this entire episode as well as all of our premium episodes and bonus content by becoming a Hit Factory Patron for just $5/month.We're back with more Danny Boyle coverage, this time discussing his latest film 28 Years Later, the long-awaited sequel to Boyle's own 28 Days Later (as well as its sequel 28 Weeks Later) that bracingly rejects the template set by both its predecessors and the broader scope of modern blockbusters to deliver a visceral, formally daring, and narratively audacious film that feels both mythic and keenly of-the-moment.We begin by discussing the reunion of Boyle's 28 Days Later collaborators, secreenwriter Alex Garland and cinematographer Anthony Dod Mantle, and the film's narrative and technical accomplishments achieved by shooting on the iPhone 15 and employing a breakneck editing style that ventures occasionally into the realm of the avant-garde. Then, we contemplate the film's episodic structure, producing tonally distinct chapters that feel indebted both to Homeric and Alighierian epics as well as fantasy storytelling. Finally, we engage with the film's perspectives on death and mass crisis in the 21st century, how it speaks to our moment post-COVID and amidst Israel's ongoing genocide, and asks us to honor and value life in ways unfamiliar and reverent.Watch the trailer for 28 Years LaterListen to Taylor Holmes' reading of Rudyard Kipling's "Boots"Listen to Young Fathers' soundtrack for 28 Years Later....Our theme song is "Mirror" by Chris Fish.

What starts as a classic haunting becomes something darker, as a paranormal investigator and his team encounter a horrifying figure in the woods… a figure possibly tied to a real 19th-century criminal trial. Is it the spirit of a man wrongly condemned? Or something even more ancient, still feeding on grief, rage, and despair?Join Peter Laws as he investigates this eerie true story where the paranormal collides with true crime, folklore, and historical tragedy.

Creativity and Imagination: Man's ability to Create something uplifts the human spirit. Imagination fuels creativity. Imagination leads to the thoughts that become ideas — and thoughts become things. Inspiration from Nature: As Monarch butterflies need the milkweed plant, Evana Henri needs Wild Aspen from Colorado forests to make her Wild Aspen Exfoliators.. Wild Aspen is sustainably and responsibly sourced from Colorado forests. Harvesting is part of a forestry plan to prevent wildfires and revitalize forests. Sourcing Practices (from their website): Partner with local, reputable suppliers. Suppliers are government-approved and follow U.S. Forestry guidelines. These efforts support both the environment and forest health. The Origin of the Idea: Most sponges are synthetic, made from crude oil (non-renewable). Contain toxic chemicals and microplastics. Pollute water, soil, and the broader environment. Evana and her husband have scientific backgrounds. Motivated by love for the planet. Focused on solving the "Dirty Sponge Problem": About the Business: Sustainable sourcing of natural materials. Reducing global plastic pollution.

The show opens with a discussion over mental health and political ideology. It should not be surprising, but the more emotionally unhinged and mentally unwell, the more likely you will lean Left. I needed an extra day to process my thoughts on Ukraine's attack on Russia's nuclear bombers. It's not the win the media and the Left want you to think it is. In fact, our whole world moved a lot closer to WWIII than most are willing to admit. The “Free Palestine” movement really needs to be declared a terrorist organization. They really did bring the intifada here and it will continue to escalate if we do not respond proactively now. We just now learned the FBI had a way to hide documents and evidence in their system, which would make it almost impossible to find. This explains why so many investigations seem to stall or get lost once inside the FBI. This also provides a reminder to the audience to be a little more patient with the time it's taking the DOJ and the FBI to go after the corrupt and the law-breakers. According to the Secret Service, Joe Biden would get lost in his own closet. The more we learn, the more it seems Jill Biden was a lot closer to Lady Macbeth than anyone knew. Pam Bondi has announced several arrests in the “swatting” ring that was endangering 100s of Trump supporters and elected officials. It looks like more arrests may be coming. Finally, the Left is still trying to figure out how to keep from losing the male vote, especially the young, male vote. As long as they keep demonizing Alpha males and putting up weak Beta's as examples, they will continue to lose the male vote. To help, I close with a poem by Rudyard Kipling entitled, “If...” Please take a moment to rate and review the show and then share the episode on social media.

Episode OverviewThis week, I consider the Stoic philosophy of Marcus Aurelius' Meditations and Epictetus' Enchiridion, part of Ted Gioia's Humanities List (link below!). Moving from Greek dramas to 2nd-century Roman Stoics, we first talk about the move from Greek lit to Roman, how the mindset and history will impact what we read. I cover Marcus Aurelius and Epictetus in depth, mention Admiral Stockdale (a modern Stoic) and end the episode with Rudyard Kipling's poem "If." Marcus Aurelius' MeditationsMeditations, the private journal of a Roman emperor, emphasizes self-focus, humility, and inner peace. Key takeaways include: Focus on your own mind and skills, not others' actions or opinions. Embrace nature to cultivate curiosity and appreciation for the world. Accept life's brevity and smallness, acting virtuously without expecting rewards. Find peace within, not in external escapes like vacation homes. Hold pleasures loosely to achieve contentment in the present moment.I note the surprising modernity of Aurelius' advice but question its contradictions, like the futility of life versus the call to virtue.Epictetus' EnchiridionEpictetus, a former slave turned philosopher, offers a direct, practical guide in The Enchiridion. I prefer Epictetus' straightforward style, finding it more relatable than Aurelius' introspections. Highlights include: Distinguish what harms the body from what affects the will—Epictetus' own lameness adds poignancy to this teaching. Know your limits and operate fully within them, committing wholeheartedly to your purpose. Avoid excess in speech, laughter, or indulgence, embracing simplicity.Consider the parallels to Biblical teachings like Colossians 3:17.Reflections and ChallengesI don't love Stoicism, as I think it sacrifices deep love and beauty. But there's no doubt that its ideals have a place in society--Stockdale and Kipling both reflect that. Translation struggles (George Long's arcane 1877 version versus Gregory Hays' readable Meditations) and time management issues due to travel delayed this week's reading. Classical music (Haydn's Symphonies 45, 94, and 104) enriched the experience, though I skipped the art.What's NextNext week, I explore Suetonius' Twelve Caesars with Mozart's symphonies and Italian art by Botticelli and Caravaggio.
