If I could, I’d give each of you a howdy handshake or hug.  In these changing (and for many, challenging) times, know that I send some heartfelt best wishes to you and yours.

And note that every week or so I send out a favorite quotation or reminder on my Facebook fan page, and via Twitter – quick and easy ways to stay in touch.

Dan

An Older Classic Music Video Revisited

Interesting how we tend to look for the next new thing.  But newer isn’t always better. We do have some pop stars and American Idols and gleeful vocalists belting out catchy tunes.  Well, here’s one worth another look from the King of Pop. (Whatever one thinks or believes about the amazing, creative and ultimately tragic life of Michael Jackson, the art he helped to create — and the sentiments expressed — only improve over time.) Remember the mind-blowing morphing at the end of the video?

And Speaking of Music . . .  ”Warriors”
My friend and colleague in spirit, Ansgar Ueffink, producer of the VARGO music group, and producer of the hit single “Warriors” (mixing quality music with some of my spoken reminders), has had a warm response, so far, to his:
WARRIORS IN THE MIX – Remix Contest -
Around the World in Twenty-Four Days

From Ansgar: “To be honest: this is so much more than we expected. Our remix contest triggered an overwhelming feedback. 54 colleagues from 22 countries replied to our call to create their personal interpretation of the Vargo/Dan Millman collaboration “Warriors.” Within 24 days our remix files went around the world and brought a global music community into being. As Patricia Leidig from the wonderful Spanish band Almadrava wrote on our Facebook page: “VARGO – connecting people.”

We’re extremely impressed with the quality and the stylistic variety of the contributions, and we recommend you check them out for yourself on our YouTube channel. You can help your favourite mix win the contest. Just spread the word by sending it to your friends or posting it on your Facebook page. Because the mix with the most clicks will win and be included on the Warriors EP to be released on August 20th. Voting wil begin on Tuesday, July 6th, and end on Monday, July 12th, 5 pm GMT. We’ll announce the winner the day after that on www.vargoworld.com.  And now it’s your turn. Please pick your favourite mix.  Have fun listening and voting!

Movie Review:
Here’s a little film that may have briefly visited theaters, now on DVD:  “Idiocracy” starring Luke Wilson, Directed by Mike Judge.  (Linked to a “rottentomatoes” review.)  You may love it; you may not.  It’s a mixed bag, for sure — and certainly not your classic “spiritual cinema”!

NOTE: The movie is R-rated, and may be inappropriate or offensive to some. But I tend to like off-the-traveled path, quirky films. Around 1969 or 1970 I walked into a theater in the middle of an afternoon and caught a sneak preview of “Harold and Maude” (and at the end of the film I turned around, and “Maude” (Ruth Gordon) was sitting right behind me!  (Did you know that Ruth Gordon, besides being an actress, was one of Hollywood’s top screenwriters, having co-written a number of Tracy-Hepburn films?)

I don’t know if “Idiocracy” stands up to “Harold and Maude” or one of my all-time favorites — “Groundhog Day” — and wouldn’t exactly call it a “gem” — but it made an impression on me.  A clever satire and almost prophetically scary (if sometimes crass) comedy about one possible dystopian future toward which we may be trending . . . Idiocracy

Fatigue is the best pillow.

A Nice Gift

I recently received a lovely letter and photo I thought you might enjoy:

My Special Gift

Hi Dan, I live in New Jersey with my husband and 2 children, all fans of your writing. For Christmas my husband gave me one of the best gifts ever. He gave me three of your books, and made a sign for me with my favorite quote from Way of the Peaceful Warrior. The sign is now hanging in our  family room so we all can be reminded of it every day. It makes me smile!
~Sally S.

Here’s to some wonderful summer moments!

Until next time,
