Ойын-сауық

Anton Chekhov's short story "Happiness" centers around two shepherds, Panteley and his young assistant, who discuss the elusive nature of happiness while watching over their flock in the Steppe. One night, they encounter an old Tartar, who shares a story about a hidden treasure buried in a forest and believes that discovering this treasure would bring true happiness. This tale ignites a sense of hope and curiosity in the young assistant, who becomes obsessed with the idea of finding this treasure and the happiness it could bring.

    Thank you! I find no problem with the reading, but rather disagree with the introductory interpretation of the story. I believe that every listener should be able to form his or hers own understanding of the story. Your work is a service to humanity, appreciate it greatly!

    I used to lament the relatively scarce English translations of French, German and Russian classics turned into audiobooks. I'm happy to get to stare at the wall in the fetal position and learn about foreign writers and history. These could be fake but I'm happy

    I would like different intro music for different authors. Then it would be kuch easier for me to remember who the author is.

    I would say that humans are the only incarnate creature who can suffer. I would also say that situations lead to different preferences in practice of theology. Joy can be about independently doing one's duty.

    The old man looking down at the ground. (he’s grounded. Knows where he is in the world. Looking down through his long life.) 🌒 The youth was looking up at the stars. (He is young, filled with life, ambition, idealism. Looking forward upon his life and what was to become.) 🌘🌕 A wonderful metaphorical beginning to a story and so like Russia in 19th century. Does the heart of the Russian people still beat as it did then?

    I love Chekhov and I can tell you that practically nothing has changed in people's hearts. life is the same, only the environment has changed a little. Greetings from Russia)

    As read emotionally by the AI, this is an ugly story. It should be read with melancholy and wistfulness, with longing. The AI read it with anger. Not the story as meant at all. That’s why Shakespeare is still relevant. It can be interpreted as it’s seen by the director in the past, the now, the future, or in fantasy (as long as the basic emotion and meaning of the plays are adhered to. As far as interpretation and fantasy go, “Kiss Me Kate”, is a wonderful example 😌😙😄 (If you haven’t seen it, do look for ”Brush Up Your Shakespeare” - it’s such a Marvelous scene in song and dance.) 🌷🌱

    I don't think the channels can just demonitize and then the adds go away. What happened was a reduced pay out to content makers combined with adds no matter what.
