Doomsday…A Theme for Rose…A Musical Connection Beyond Words…

I well and truly cried at this. It is an absolutely beautiful piece on it’s own. But all the more because I can just see the scenes in my head. The scenes that make me cry every time. They are so beautifully written/acted/produced and presented… It’s a rare thing to find such genuine emotion portrayed [...]

The Kingdom of Heaven, a Kingdom of Love… a kingdom of love…

So many horrible things have been done in the name of religion and purity. So many devastating actions taken in the name of protecting us from the dangerous. Yet so rarely is the dangerous the target of these actions… more often it is the innocent and the dangerous are the ones taking the action. This [...]

229 Years Seeking Freedom, Second Class Citizens Still Struggle, Tears Still Fall. (Video Embedded)

I don’t know that I have the words to properly express the way this resonated to me. To say that I sat here crying while watching it, would be an understatement. We’ve come so far, yet have so far to go. Somewhere along the way

Liberal Is NOT a Dirty Word…

This was a monolog from the West Wing that was delivered by Bruno (Ron Silver) to Sam Seaborn (Rob Lowe) durring the re-election campaign for Jed Bartlet (Martin Sheen).

Lonely People And Silver Cups…

This came on in my shuffled playlist yesterday, was rather appropriate given my mood of late. Enjoy Lyrics: 

Songs Of The Soul…

I may be alone here, but I don’t think that I am.  I think we all have those certain songs that when they come on our souls skip a beat… not just the heart, but the whole soul snaps to an electrified attention. It’s not always a happy connection, and not always sad. Some are [...]

Heed My Warning, Queue Tha’ Horns!! It’s Time To Cake Walk!! A Sequel Post. (Going Home Part II)

Whenever that day may come that I make that final journey home, There are few things that I want, and few things that I need. I need to see my friends and family celebrate the life I lived, and the time they still have. I need to go out in style, loud…brassy…style! I may not [...]

“Going Home” My Idea Of A Perfect Funeral
