Twilight-Zone Time

I would just like to inform everyone

that at three minutes and four seconds

after 2 AM on the 6th of May this year,

the time and date will be;

02:03:04

05/06/07.

This date and time will never happen again.

On and On it Goes

You can say that you'll never matter

Lose or win

The world won't care

and it's hard to bear

Such a lonely wind

But you can change a stranger's life

By letting yours begin

And on and on it goes

Chance is everywhere

Like the train you took

The rain that fell on the summer air

On and on it flies, like the time we've lost

It's either running out

Or covering all our dreams in dust...

Every night the TV shows

One more bad day's news

A world away from what I know

And what I do

But I could save a stranger's life

If I had a clue

And on and on it goes

Attention must be paid

Before it seems we're one soul short

And a second late...

MASSacre

How I hate this word!

Why does it have to exist in our vocabulary?

I'm sick of hearing about it--thanks to the media!

I couldn't quite title my blog for the day

with that word so I shortented it with MASS.

When we will get it-gun control?

NEVER!

Not in the good old USA!

When will get it-mental illness?

There are so many lost souls out there

and it will only continue to get worse.

Ok, enough rambling as I don't want to start

writing my own manifesto.

Now, I'm off to go

"Dreaming on the Starlight Train"

and engage in some much needed meditation.

My heart goes out to the college community

@ Virginia Tech.

My line of work as a college counselor

brought this tragedy close to home.

Happy Easter

Everytime it rains, it rains pennies from heaven, don't you know each cloud contains pennies from heaven, and you'll find your fortune falling all over town so be sure that your umbrella is upside down.

Slow Motion

Music: Slow Motion, Stephen Duros/Thira
Mood: Sleepy

Overview: Sometimes staying stuck can feel safer than making a change, even (especially) when you know the change would be better for you. Just noticing that is a good start. Real movement often starts slowly.

I came across this post/horoscope a few months ago and had blogged it but saved it as a draft. Tonight, I was going over those drafts and found this. Yes, I was feeling stuck the past few weeks and in some aspects I still feel as if I am moving in slow motion (buying a house) but in other aspects the ball is moving and while it started slowly at least it's still rolling. Perhaps, it was the change in season and while I'm not looking forward to the summer here it does signal a change in time & self. Thanks to Stephen Duros for his ever inspiring music that heals the soul. Be sure to give his music a listen which can be found here and here.

Libra Daily Horoscope:

A need to prove your diligence can come over you without warning today, prompting you to examine the pending promises in your life. You may be shocked to discover that you are carrying unresolved obligations and that you fear others will regard you as unreliable because of it. To ease your mind, consider whether you can fulfill any of these promises today. If it will take more time than this to express your dedication in action, you may feel compelled to reach out to the individuals to whom you are obliged. Letting them know that you are thinking about them and taking steps to act on your obligations can help you remember that you are indeed a steadfast person.We inspire trust in others naturally when we make a diligent effort to fulfill each and every promise we make. Trustworthiness is a worthy indicator of our ability to interact well with others because it provides us with a means of assessing the manner in which the people we spend time with perceive us. Though our obligations may tax us at times, the knowledge that our loved ones and peers can count on us in times of trouble will usually make the trials we face worth the trouble. We can take pride in the fact that we have the strength necessary to always keep our word and take pleasure in the fact that our actions contribute positively to the well-being of those we care for and esteem. As you concentrate on fulfilling your promises today, you will discover that others view you as responsible and reliable.
...Hmmm, FREAKY!
