The Mystery of Change

Something has happened. Something is different.
Is it my shoulders? Well...they don’t feel so heavy, hmm.
My jaw...it has been so tight lately... why, it has released, and I can move it all about!
And my chest...oh how I can breathe in so fully!

Who Might I Become?

Who am I becoming? As Scrooge encounters a future without him, rippling with the effects of a life long-lived under his miserly virtues and values, he comes face to face with the impact of his actions, the harvest of seeds long-sown.

Looking Forward

Charles Dickens’s response to widespread apathy for the plight of the poor was to write A Christmas Carol. We owe the humanitarian spirit of the Christmas season to this work.

There is Something Coming

There is something coming.

Quick, before it is too late, listen.

Do you hear the sound of the oboe? Do you hear the tuning of the violins? Do you hear the rustle of the music on the stand?
