Having a Good Memory for all the Good in Life
In Your Presence - A podcast by Eric Nicolai
Categories:
Groucho Marx in the early silent films would say that to have a happy life, we must have good humour have a bad memory. Of course we have good humour, but I don’t agree that we should have a bad memory. We have to have good humour and good memory, but selective memory for all the good in life. This was the purpose of the transfiguration, in which Jesus showed the apostle the luminosity of the good. It was so that they should remember the good, when things were bad and dark. A meditation preached by Fr. Eric Nicolai in Lyncroft centre in Toronto on March 9, 2023. Music: Chiquinha Gonzaga composer, Lua Branca, arranged for guitar by Guitar Bert Alink. Thumbnail: Raphael Sanzio, Transfiguration 1520, Pinacoteca Vaticana.
