Although I don’t remember the exact date, I will never forget stumbling upon an article describing the activating philosophy of Colin Wilson, which stopped him in his tracks as he was about to attempt su***de when he was a teenager. His epiphany became my epiphany: Live as if at any moment you may get the 'absurd good news.'
When the pandemic began taking a toll on the entire globe, myself included, Wilson's quote inspired me from head to toe like it has many times, allowing me to summon hope that allowed me to glimpse what is possible when we shift our mindset and dig deeper to see a new perspective.
If you're in need of a little hope, treat yourself to Judith and Friends, a short film directed by artist Judith Modrak that is currently a part of the Queens World Film Festival Listening Tour in partnership with the Queens Museum.
I'll drop a link in the comments below.
Watch: Veteran Capt. Sixto Valentin of the NYC Health + Hospitals/Elmhurst Hospital Police appeared with Queens World Film Festival during a Veterans Day film screening on PTSD and mental illness.
I'm excited to join Katha Cato of the Queens World Film Festival and others today to be 1 of 7 in the video series, 'Listening Tour,' discussing and in times. The sculpture below is the gorgeous work of Judith Modrak, another .
Thank you Katha Cato and the Queens World Film Festival for your continued support and NYC H&H/ELMHURST HOSPITAL for the opportunity!
This morning, we joined our friends, The 11th annual Queens World Film Festival & Film Festival Flix to present proceeds from the sales of Hero Tickets, along with bottles of our blk. functional beverages for all the ‘Heroes of Elmhurst’ at NYC Health + Hospitals/Elmhurst for their hard work, commitment, and continued dedication to the Covid pandemic.

Happy 4th of July! As you celebrate, remember the men and women who fought for our freedom and all of the survivors who struggle with post trauma. We know that not everyone was able to make it to the premiere last week at the Queens World Film Festival, so over this holiday weekend and extending through July 11th we'd like to offer you the opportunity to see our film in a limited special event. Click the link below for details about the film and the live Q&A on Sunday July 11th from 1-4 pm ET. It's important to make mental health a common conversation, and we hope that you will join us!
