From Little Things Big Things Grow...

From His Holiness the Dalai Lama:

When human intelligence and human  goodness or affection are used together, all human actions become constructive. When we combine a warm heart with knowledge and education, we can learn to respect others' views and others' rights. This beomess the basis of a spirit of reconciliation that can be used to overcome aggression and resolve our conflict. So, no matter how much violence or haw many bad things we have to go through, .. the ulitmate solution to our conflicts, both internal and external, lies in returning to our basic or underlying human nature, which is gentle and compassionate.



Underwater love....

Music is an integral part of healing.
An elixer, it gets you moving, and dreaming.
A perfect way to start the day....



This must be underwater love
The way I feel it slipping all over me
This must be underwater love
The way I feel it

O que que é esse amor, d'água
Deve sentir muito parecido a esse amor
This is it
Underwater love
It is so deep
So beautifully liquid

Esse amor com paixão, ai
Esse amor com paixão, ai que coisa

After the rain comes sun
After the sun comes rain again
After the rain comes sun
After the sun comes rain again

This must be underwater love
The way I feel it slipping all over me
This must be underwater love
The way I feel it
O que que é esse amor, d'água
Eu sei que eu não quero mais nada

Follow me now
To a place you only dream of
Before I came along

When I first saw you
I was deep in clear blue water
The sun was shining
Calling me to come and see you
I touched your soft skin
And you jumped in with your eyes closed
And a smile upon your face
Você vem, você vai
Você vem e cai
E vem aqui pra cá
Porque eu quero te beijar na sua boca
Que coisa louca
Vem aqui pra cá
Porque eu quero te beijar na sua boca
Ai que boca gostosa

After the rain comes sun
After the sun comes rain again
After the rain comes sun
After the sun comes rain again
Cai cai e tudo tudo cai
Tudo cai pra lá e pra cá
Pra lá e pra cá
E vamos nadar
Y vamos nadar e tudo tudo dá

This must be underwater love
The way I feel it slipping all over me
This must be underwater love
The way I feel it
Oh oh d'água we are full

Underwater
Oh underwater love
This underwater love
This underwater love
Underwater love



 
DEDICATION & LIGHTCASTING


The next hour I am spending dedicated to music and love. Its the end of summer.

Daylight savings has ended.

Easter is around the corner, the days are becoming cooler and the breath of Autumn lies softly in the evening's wake.

ANZAC Day is a national day of remembrance in Australia. (April 26)
I admit to not being overly patriotic.
But, love & loyalty have its roots at home.
To protect and defend is not a bad virtue.
Over-protection, fear, and an insular, clannish outlook like all extremes has its de-merits.
Love others as you aspire to love yourself.
Today, for those who are tuned in, is lightcast day.
A day to declare your intentions and release them to the universe.
Healing, love, peace, harmony, a new job... a better car or a windfall as yet to be determined...

Today I am thinking of one lady only and it is this time and this space that I am dedicating to her.

MUM.

We all celebrate and memorialise our loved ones in different ways...
Without going on to much, I never saw my mum while she was sick. Perhaps to invite me to be there was to admit to being so ill, that to speak of it was to admit to a reality that was too much to bear publicly. The one phone call I received from her in no way whatsoever indicated how sick she was at the time. I did not know. How could I have known. To now know is a hard thing to bear. I could be angry about how this was all handled. But to blame, self-berate and to question is to spend futile hours achieving nothing. I am yet to see her resting place. I know where she is but to go - well, its to face reality. The thought alone makes me want to throw up. At the end of the day, I dont want to know.
 
As catholic as her upbringing may have been, at heart was a fiery lady who loved her music and was a rebel at heart.

Is death not a part of life, and therefore an event to be celebrate?
