That 5 letter word!

Music. I'm often amazed at the myriad emotions that I associate with the sound of music. I like it soft, sometimes peppy and when I feel low, it seems to be my confidant. Perhaps my love for it is inherent. My folks can sing all day long and still sing some more. My brother plays the guitar like a dream and maybe gifting me with a little talent was only fair. Sometimes I feel it's the only other thing that keeps me going. My play list may not include the greatest songs ever or bands that generate waves all over but what matters is that I relate to the kind of stuff I listen to. Lyrics that make sense to me only add to the beauty of a song. Anything that I can sing or hum along with is enough to make me smile. A note played on the piano can fill me up with insane amounts of happiness. Sometimes I don't think it's right to measure that joy. Music is divine. Music is a universal language. Music is the food of love... Play on...

Signing off with a song that makes me feel at peace.

"Sounds of laughter shades of life
are ringing through my open ears
exciting and inviting me
Limitless undying love which
shines around me like a million suns
It calls me on and on across the universe"

Right now I want to..

Break free.

Take a holiday to some place that's cut off from modern living.

Listen to The Beatles.

Speak to any one of the 15 people who make me smile.

Give my lazy dogs a hug each.

Drink a glass of iced tea.

Learn ten new words.. profanity included.

Be Hobbes.

Turn back time.

Stay away from SMS.

Ride my bicycle.

Capture the weather in a matchbox.

Play with bubbles.

Fight with Dumdum and have a Family reunion.

Plait my hair.

Lie down under an apple tree.

Stay random and dreamy.
