‘The Penguin Lessons’ points the way to inspirational wisdom
Most of us would probably agree that learning lessons is an important part of our life experience. However, at the same time, most of us would also likely concur that we seldom know what those lessons will be, what their messages are or how they will arise in our lives. What’s more, and perhaps even more perplexing, we often don’t know who the teachers of those lessons will be. Could they be the circumstances that appear? The people who cross our paths? Or maybe something else entirely unexpected?

Surviving Expendability on The Cinema Scribe
Tune in for the latest Cinema Scribe segment on Bring Me 2 Life Radio, beginning Tuesday April 22.
‘Mickey 17’ explores the dangers of expendability
In a throw-away age like the one in which we live, virtually everything is vulnerable.
