That Place of Peace.
Fay Slimm. said:
May that slow glorious sound never leave your appreciative heart dear friend. A wonderful piece of music to take any listener into a few moments of peace.

Ah the pleasures of a self indulgent single life. That place of peace next to the ironing board.

It\'s difficult to think of you giving your balls some hammer in the snow. Is there no limit to your adventurous outlook when in ladies company on the green?

\'It wasn\'t snowing that hard!\'

The cold can draw the strength from our body too. I seem to be hungrier on colder days, even after short shopping trip.
I blame Clement for the weather. He stays in - inclement! A corny joke there. lol.

She Is Always There - Tanka.
dusk arising said:
The light of your life. Have you considered writing a book about your later years, experiences and frame of mind. You\'ll probably be aware of the book \'the road less travelled\'. I think your story could be a real eye opener for a lot of folk confused and disappointed with the way their life has changed abd how they fit into society.

Seeing People.
L. B. Mek said:
\'But to see people properly
We need to look into their eyes,
As \'only\' in their eyes \'do we\' see them,
See them for what they are,
What they really are.
As on the outside they are so different,
So different to the real person they are.\'
how laudable Andy:
you\'ve just distilled three millennia worth of \'humane ideal\'s\' within six, deceptively accessible lines...
Bravo!
(forgive my little \'inputs\', I meant no disrespect my friend)

Yes I totally agree. It was pointed out to me long ago that our eyesight is our prime sense. Once accept that then anything visual takes pride of place among our senses or sense. Depending upon your upbringing or guidance as a child you will make instant decisions and values about the images you see. In maturity it will probably be necessary to override these judgements, which are in fact prejudices, to revalue the image you are seeing. For example my mother made terrible judgements about tramps and passed them onto me on many occasions as a very small child. I have to look beyond that conditioning to see the real person. Early conditioning is so effective and destructive. That\'s why a lot of people live in fear of god, they were \'got at\' at a very young age LOL.
Well thats my two-penneth anyway.

Yes, to see people. But if it\'s \'people\'-watching\' it ends in embarrassment: \'Who ya looking at?\' or a dirty look from them. Doh!
In some programme, made as comedy, a person was so hostile, one line was \'Hello? What do ya mean hello? You looking for a fight?\'

dusk arising said:
I suppose there are musicians who fit the conductors description but its unwise to put them all in one bag.
As a musician I don\'t consider myself different from any other musician i have met who played, not to give love but, because it feels good to play your instrument or sing. Yes it does feel good if ab audience appreciates your playing and ever nicer when a musician appreciates it.
