Today’s prompt is “hope” and I’d hoped to come up with something creative for such a good word, but I just ended up stuck with a couple of earworms instead. The songs wouldn’t leave my head, so I’m going to share these two inspirational songs (each with the same title) with you instead. If you end up with an earworm from them, I’m sorry. But it’s my hope you’ll find them inspiring.
First up is “High Hopes” from Panic! At The Disco, from the album “Pray For The Wicked”:
And second is the classic “High Hopes” by Frank Sinatra, from the movie “A Hole in the Head”:
This short musical post is part of the Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt, “hope”:
James Bowen and Bob, the street cat. Image found on Google search.
“Everybody needs a break, everybody deserves that second chance. Bob and I had taken ours.” – James Bowen
Sad news came yesterday that Bob, the famous street cat who befriended the busker James Bowen and helped him get back on his feet and basically saved his life, died on Monday at the age of 14. James Bowen wrote a book about Bob and how the cat changed his life, and that book, “A Street Cat Named Bob”, became an instant hit and spawned 3 more books as well as a movie. Bob will be greatly missed. https://variety.com/2020/film/global/bob-the-cat-dies-dead-james-bowen-1234637774/
