THE BEAT GOES ON - January 14th

"The world changes according to the way people see it, and if you can alter, even by a millimeter, the way people look at reality, then you can change the world." 

- Samuel McCord

Sonny & Cher released their single, The Beat Goes On, on this day in 1967.

There’s a consensus that the title means the fact that time keeps marching forward, no matter what fads come and go. 

The beat itself could be a heartbeat or a musical beat.

Imagine how "cool" Cher felt in her clothes. 

Imagine the looks she would get walking down the street looking like that now?

You never change things by fighting the existing reality. 

To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete, right?

What do you find strange about life today?

The first full moon of 2025 peaks Monday evening. 

Despite its timeless appearance, the moon has not always been in Earth's orbit.

How old is the moon? Not even science is sure. What's your guess?
