Heil Sei Dem Tag!

At my advanced age (43……) I've decided that, as long as you've got food on the table and a roof over your head, all that really matters in life are (1) love; and (2) art.

I'm a chartist, not an artist, but I appreciate the art of others – especially music. I've shown a version of this clip before – the finale of Fidelio – but I urge you to fire it up and even just listen to it in the background while you do whatever-it-is that you do in the afternoon. It's good for your soul. Thank you, LVB!

What Is Hidden Will Be Revealed

Tuba mirum spargens sonum
per sepulcra regionum,
coget omnes ante thronum.
 
The trumpet will send its sound
throughout earth's sepulchres
and gather all before the throne.
 
Mors stupebit et natura,
cum resurget creatura,
judicanti responsura.
Liber scriptus proferetur,
in quo totum continetur,
unde mundus judicetur.
 
Death and nature will be astounded,
when all creation rises again,
to answer the judgement.
A book will be brought forth,
in which all will be written,
by which the world will be judged.
 


My next post, I will state my projections for the S&P which I am using as the basis for my own trading.
