Any people anywhere, being inclined and having the power, have the right to rise up, and shake off the existing government, and form a new one that suits them better. This is a most valuable - a most sacred right - a right, which we hope and believe, is to liberate the world. - Abraham Lincoln

Listen to the mustn'ts, child.

Listen to the don'ts.

Listen to the shouldn'ts, the impossibles, the won'ts.

Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me...

Anything can happen, child. Anything can be. - Shel Silverstein

Music is the mediator between the spiritual and the sensual life.

Dancers come and go in the twinkling of an eye but the dance lives on. In those moments, I felt my spirit soar and become one with everything that exists. I keep on dancing and then, it is the eternal dance of creation. I keep on dancing until there is only . . . the dance. – Michael Jackson

"If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?

— The Mad Hatter"

INVITATION

If you are a dreamer, come in.

If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar,

A hope-er, a pray-er, a magic bean buyer . . .

If you're a pretender, come sit by my fire,

For we have some flax golden tales to spin.

Come in!

Come in!

-Shel Silverstein

I love Shel Silverstein! You just brought me back to my childhood. -_-

Translation: I will go east and go west

[to the place] from whence came

the moon and the sun

The moon and the sun will go

and the young man

with his reputation behind him

I will go wherever he came from

the young man with his reputation behind him.

Gosh, I remember my papous playing this song for me when I was little. It always relaxed me. Still does. Now, it's a theme for me. I might make a Vocaroo of me singing this, just for the love of it.
