The Moody Blues Lyrics

"The Story In Your Eyes"

"I've been thinking about our fortune
And I've decided that we're really not to blame
For the love that's deep inside us now
Is still the same

And the sounds we make together
Is the music to the story in your eyes
It's been shining down upon me now
I realize

Listen to the tide slowly turning
Wash all our heartaches away
We're part of the fire that is burning
And from the ashes we can build another day

But I'm frightened for your children
That the life that we are living is in vain
And the sunshine we've been waiting for
Will turn to rain

Listen to the tide slowly turning
Wash all our heartaches away
We're part of the fire that is burning
And from the ashes we can build another day

But I'm frightened for your children
That the life that we are living is in vain
And the sunshine we've been waiting for
Will turn to rain

When the final line is over and
It's certain that the curtain's gonna fall
I can hide inside your sweet sweet love
For ever more"

Ushering in my favorite time of year,

Thank goodness for this break from oppressive heat and humidity.

Autumn is a beautiful pause AND passage before deep dives within, to learn and bathe in the nature of reality

Apart, or better said: beneath, like a cavernous river flowing under bedrock, emanating the primordial sound,

Away from the tumult of surface life even while walking in its midst.


WHEN IS THE AUTUMNAL EQUINOX?

The fall equinox arrives on Tuesday, September 22, 2020, at 9:31 A.M. EDT. 

The equinox occurs at the same moment worldwide.


For more about this yearly transition, here is The Old Farmer's Almanac, Founded in 1792:

Traveling far afield in this Earth Day post...

There was a news story on NPR today about the age of psychedelic rock in 60s and 70s Cambodia, much of which had been lost until the movies, Golden Slumbers and Don't Think I've Forgotten  revived interest and some of the missing resources.

I like this video clip from the former of the two films because it shows off people and places carrying on current life as usual with wonderfully steady pan shots.

The song is called, Yol Aularong or Don't Be Upset.

I'm always happy to discover something with heart.

Happy Birthday to all the loving souls out there.

I spent mine with my beloved and a sweet sister and young nephew.

We had Indian food on a picnic sheet on the living room floor, and then watched the ever amazing Romeo + Juliet, Baz style.

So much a'stir now with tragedy brain waves that make me sentimental for life - too precious.

Momentous and prematurely decisive at both wrong and right moments.

Language of William Shakespeare, another Baldr April child.

The seasons of life relived, and I am ever so grateful.

Topping it off with music from the soundtrack of 'The Only Lovers Left Alive.'

What is this beauty, and why does it hold hands, walking down Tragedy Lane?

A birthday to remember for me.

So soothing, the year of the cat.

And what year isn't?

I always imagined myself having cats til my dying day. Maybe that will still happen, but it's hard to imagine jumping right back into it after this particular specimen. Don't get me wrong; I love her muchly. Two things though:


  • She only has eyes for my partner
  • She has viciously attacked me on occasion
  • I'm scared of her
  • But I don't want to just 'get rid of her' where her life will surely be ended.
  • But after her.... I wonder.

One perspective over many hours, but all within the same twenty-four hour period.
I love time lapse photography effects so much, I'll have to learn to do it 'someday.'
Cycles and rhythms, inhalation and exhalation.

And the darkest picture shows the culprit, so bright despite its half fullness.

"Happiness is not a matter of events; it depends upon the tides of the mind."
~Alice Meynell

"Here I am, I still go on, you know, like the tides."
~Angela Lansbury

"Life is a little like a message in a bottle, to be carried by the winds and the tides."
~Gene Tierney

"Most of us, swimming against the tides of trouble the world knows nothing about, need only a bit of parise or encouragement - and we will make the goal."

...at least I believe it's snow? I wasn't able to find out where this was taken, nor by whom. It was *originally?* posted on Facebook by Neeyum Naanum, and I found the sculpture impressive in size, detail, and grace. Looks like some other folk were stopped in their tracks as well. :)

~*~*~*~

Stream of consciousness led me to this piece of music from "The Lord of the Rings" featuring flute middle and end. I was originally thinking of the piece, 'Evenstar,' as she was a queen, but I didn't find the 'quiet' visuals I wanted to go with it. I searched, but no dice this time.

I read an article about retirement and house size recently. If we don't use our houses primarily as a storage unit (a significant issue from where I sit and look about this morning), there are many new and interesting options for downsizing to something a bit smaller and more affordable. Calculations show that it can be one of the more influential decisions to meet retirement goals. And off my mind goes, a'wanderin'.

Recently there was an article and pictures of clever 'hobbit hole' type housing, and now this one to meet the demand for influx of people to Western Canada in these and coming years. Skim the pictures or read the informative article if you have extra time. Seem doable?

Happy 021212.

Happy Thanksgiving to all celebrants.

I found this worth the nine minutes of my day.

Peaceful, gentle feast of time-lapse reminders.

Potential mind shift, useful for coming up with notions of goodness in life.

Such a sweet moment in the genesis of the Lennon repertoire.
How many times I watched this clip, I could not say...
But on this day, I remember your birth and how glad of you
I am - for all of who you were and are to me and the world
You enliven still.

The duality of your nature, so honest it seems to me.
A help when I face confusion when my two sides rear up.
Thank you.

Birthday time again... poignant to acknowledge, though for you
Its beckoning memories and concepts come more often...

I imagine where you are. Imagine peace again. Now.
Well wishes always for your travels on.

Music has power.
People have power.
Step 1: Find the priority
Step 2: Find the people
Step 3: When what you hope is for the good of all,
Can be hard for say 1% to see through isolation + fear;
When it coincides with the Golden Rule;
It's time for Step 4: Stand in Solidarity with the wise
In whatever way you can.
Let them know you care as well.
Add your voice to theirs as best you can or start speaking yourself
Articulate what's most important to you.

So much is going on right now.
The see saw goes up and down.
Forces of fact, math, humanity, and mutual support
Compassion.
What is necessary is the gracious mother of ideas
And newborn or repurposed solutions.

May all be well.
May all be happy.
May all be conscious and clear,
By way of love and courage.

Occupy Wall Street.
Occupy - to fill with content and energy.
What does it mean to you?
More and more are answering that question for themselves.
Makes me proud; and then it makes me proud some more.
Cognition, critical thinking, love.
May we bring back democracy from its first moment:
The great experiment
Possibility + Passion = Potential Perspective.

Sad. These are real feelings. Still, I don't want to go there.

'Tis good to be aware...
and find alternatives

To all the ways one might misinterpret this song with its

Story of violence engendered by fear...

Let it not be so. No 'eye for an eye til all the world is blind.'

The route to hull integrity is inscribed on on all our hearts.

If you can't spot its location; listen til you see.

No instructions given at the start.

They come as you go

On your own particular route.

Wishing everyone smooth sailing and good memory.

Rolling Stone magazine, April 17, 2008: Keith Richards, Jack White, Mick Jagger

There is something about this picture.
Posed and relaxed, alone and connecting, each man seems comfortable.
Comfortable with himself and the others in the opulent space.
There's an energy to that and the way it's composed that I enjoy.
Timelessness and Poe heard whispering, "Nevermore."
All of that layered over a tribal fire gathering.
It's evening and the artists have come out to play.

I've always been one to linger in cemeteries, slowly strolling and reading what words and numbers remain on old tombstones. I find them moving, memorable, and mysterious.

Noticing the clusters of familial relations and relative dates of demise. The further back in time the more young ones, unnamed infants, and the like. Life may be brilliant, grand, glorious, yet also difficult and short.

Here's to the part that's within our control, and here's to the part that is not.

I like the gothic storytelling and admixture of media styles in this video: from cartoon to silent to dance numbers to the indescribable. The editing to fit Coldplay's music is uncanny imho. I'd never heard this song before I went searching for cemeteries. The music and the content are interesting together, I think. The first so enlivening; the subject matter more dire.

Playing with words when it's time for sleep.
These in particular have been rolling around in my brain a few times over the last couple of days.
Time to put them to rest.
Maybe then I can get some as well.

*~*~*~*



"A beautiful day, the drive into Pennsylvania from Jersey had been surprisingly stress-free. An open road stretched before us, maybe all the way up into the mountains if we were fortunate.

Just past the Philadelphia area we moved into steady evergreen forests and some altitude, both things I'd missed since coming east from Seattle years before. Certain impressions are printed on a person's soul; helps them find out exactly what kind of elf they are, as Tolkien might say...

Merging onto a new road many junctions later, we headed up one of the small, exhilarating inclines on a highway both more and less tame than the one passing through Philadelphia's surroundings.

The traffic began to slow then crawl at what seemed a least-likely spot that Saturday.

It was hard to see what might be causing the unexpected jam. One can choose to proceed with or without faith in these situations.

Several sudden movements caught my eye simultaneously. Along the side of the road came children, one carting a smaller other on her back, then a few more, followed by still others.

Where were they coming from? What was that look in their eyes? Were they spectators from this traffic lineup of cars, or was this their day at the beach, only running back our way in the 'wrong' direction? I made a mental note once their group seemed to run out of steam.

Without warning, the line-up inched onward over pebbly pavement again, slowly as a slug or sloth crawl. Pretty soon, it turned into a steady trickle of forward motion and working to keep safe from distractions: cones, then policemen waving us on.

There was a knowledge of orbit. Coming closer to the center, gravity accelerates.

To the right a jeep stood alone, present and immediate. Under its hood cackled a fully-fledged fire, something magnetic in the life of its flames so evenly spread under the hood as though smoothed by a butter knife. Billowing clouds of dirty smoke issued from the engine compartment sides, now burned clear through, perfectly invisible.

When would it go off? Here was the possibility of a roaring inferno. A vehicular supernova. There was no telling when. Hard to push away the urgency that information lent these moments of proximity.

At last I could identify the look in the deep-pooled eyes of the girl on the side of the road. She had been young, but she was the oldest of the only group to get away."

~L.E.

Danger Mouse again!

This time with James Mercer of the once and current Shins as Broken Bells, which is also the name of their first album together.

 

'Vaporize' is the second song on the album, and so far, my favorite. Love all the change-ups and the lyrics as well... a wee reminder set to song.

I'll put them here:

Vaporize Lyrics by Broken Bells
 
What amounts to a dream anymore?
A crude device; A veil on our eyes
A simple plan we'd be different from the rest
And never resign to a typical life

Common fears start to multiply
We realize we're paralyzed
Where'd it go, All that precious time?
Did we even try to stem the tide?

Why should we waste it on
Buying into the same old lies?
The longer we wait around
The faster the years go by

It's not too late
To feel a little more alive
Make an escape
Before we start to vaporize

Doubtless, we've been through this
So if you want to follow me you should know
I was lost then and I am lost now
And I doubt I'll ever know which way to go

Danger  Mouse and Daniele Luppi
from the project, "Rome."

This track is "Black," sung by Norah Jones.
The video meandering and pleasant.
The sound quality surprised me.

Before the initial split and afterward as well...
A certain and pure duality emerged.
Before and after one example,
Black and white the seeming favorite, like Kleenex brand
There is power enough to move it with the mind...
To a continuum, an insight, a whole.

Crows (in some countries), ravens in all ( I think ),
Starlings if one is not picky about saturation levels.

The rain falls down as avid artisans.
Together they work to build a liquid structure, drop and mortar, drop again.
I hear them through every window and the walls of the house too.
Their dedication rewarded with transient transformation.
Small sea and sky sisters separate no more.

Two songs referencing England that take my mind wandering.
I confess to being a long-standing Anglophile.
The nation and its history evoke for me compassion and sympathy first...
Before the balancing side of the coin pops up to say, "Me too."
And it comes back around to melancholy, so I get these songs that could be about a place called Laraby instead.

Two videos, one studio/static with production values different to the live version with more concurrent emotion, seemingly. An opinion I feel it necessary to share this morning.
Silly putty. What a concept.

Another wave crashed over you
It put you in a spell
On a cold place you know well

It pulls you further out to sea
Under the lights at Tilbury
I still love your melody

In a tied end town
Everyone hallucinating on you
But a northern whale wouldn't leave you
Until all England's tears are done
And the day comes, we move on endlessly

They only hear you in a dream
Lying by a sad machine
Sing on, love your melody

In a tied end town
Everyone hallucinating with you
But a northern whale wouldn't leave you
Until all our tears are done
And the day comes, we move on endlessly

Happy Spring Holidays to those celebrating worldwide...
3:35am Easter morning...
...Passover continues as well; many other Spring holidays to discover from the diverse richness of humanity's spirit.

In the Northern Hemisphere, warmth returns to the sun and earth.

As with the daily rising of our home star, we mark new beginnings in long-standing worldwide tradition; important symbolic sign posts toward eternal renewal.

Enjoy each moment, each beginning.
Peace.

Spring in some of our myriad traditions

Basanth
In Pakistan, boys celebrate the first day of spring in the Muslim calendar with exciting kite-fighting contests. After putting powdered glass on their strings, they use the strings to try to cut off each other's kites. Whoever keeps his kite the longest wins.

Holi
For this Hindu spring festival, people dress in green. Children then squirt each other with water pistols filled with yellow- or red-colored liquid. They also blow colored powder on each other through bamboo pipes. Everyone gets soaked — and colorful — to celebrate spring.

Songkran
In Thailand, a special three-day water festival on April 13-15 marks Songkran, the Buddhists' celebration of the new year. Parades feature huge statues of Buddha that spray water on passersby. In small villages, young people throw water at each other for fun. People also release fish into rivers as an act of kindness.

Aboakyere
The Effutu people of Ghana make a special offer to the god Panche Otu each spring with the deer-hunting festival. Two teams of men and boys, dressed in bright costumes, compete to be the first to bring back a live deer to present to the chief. Then they all dance together.

Easter
On Easter, Christians celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. People attend church and also enjoy different Easter customs. In Germany, people make "egg trees" that are decorated like Christmas trees. In Hungary, boys sprinkle girls with perfumed water — and in return, girls prepare a holiday dinner for them.

Passover
The highlight of this major Jewish holiday is the Passover seder. During these two special dinners, families read from a book called the Haggadah about the ancient Israelites' exodus, or flight, from Egypt more than 3,000 years ago. As they honor their ancestors, Jews reaffirm the importance of freedom.

May Day
To celebrate the return of spring, children in England dance around tall poles decorated with ribbons, called maypoles. Their dancing wraps the ribbons tightly around the pole.
