My husband and I attended an event at the college the other evening. It was a fun time watching a more modern Italian film made in the neo-realism genre. If anyone knows about the genre, their themes were based in Italian life during and after WWII.

If you claim to be a leader but are too scared to lead, fine -- sit down and let someone else take your place. It is easy to be bold when there is no threat.

Now is a time for courage.
