"Wisdom From Will!"


Tune in tonight with Air Force veteran, author, and Peer Support Specialist Steven Bates with the Warriors for Life Mid-Week Musings as we dive into the wisdom that Will Rogers imparted to the world so many years ago that still applies to us even now.



"Today marks the birthday of one of the greatest wits of our time, the indomitable Will Rogers!  Born in 1879 as a citizen of the Cherokee Nation, in the Indian Territory now known as Oklahoma, Will Rogers eventually became synonymous with wit and humor.  Most don't even know that he was a vaudeville performer and a silent film star long before he was ever known as a humorist, but Mr. Rogers acted in over 70 silent films before "talkies" made their debut.  Will Rogers started making a name for himself as a master of wit even during the silent film era, though, as he was known to write the caption cards that indicated to the audience what the actors were saying.  But what wisdom did Will Rogers hand down over the years that we can still use today as people struggling with mental health issues, life, and assorted problems?  Amazingly, quite a lot!"



Our Vision at Victory for Veterans, Inc. (VFV) is simple: "Where Hope, Support, and Healing come together!"
