Be happy, alone, with people who love you, and also in front of people who don’t like you. That way you will be happier when you are alone hahaha, why not?
Yes, but for the better, to evolve, grow, and open our minds without prejudice. We are supposed to change. To create better things, better systems, and a better world.
CLIMB EVERY MOUNTAIN
I watched Barbra Streisand concert, delightful voice, BUT, Barbara Streisand misunderstood this or decided to change the meaning of the song. She sang a song from the «Sound Of Music». (My favorite version is with one of my best-loved singers of all times: Dame Shirley Bassey). I have a problem with a part of the lyrics.
I will tell you first a little bit of my musical experience so you know why I dare to criticize (in a constructive way, of course) the lyrics and Barbara Sreisand.
Barbra Streisand lacks that philosophy heart and didn’t put it together correctly. She was the director of her own concert, and this was a flaw of hers
I happen to be a musician. I play the guitar and sing very well, actually. I sang professionally in my youth to pay for my medical career.
I studied music, singing lessons and musical composicion: music and lyrics, in Bellas Artes in Mexico City. So I think I have a very good idea of what I am talking about, but I am always open for a healthy debate and to change my mind if somebody is willing to explain to me why I am wrong in my assertion about this song:
The problem I have with, is highlighted and I will tell you why below the lyrics:
Climb every mountain
Ford every stream
Follow every rainbow
‘Till you find your dream
It should say «reach» your dream, not find your dream. You already need to have had found your dream, this is «know» your dream, then climb every mountain, until you reach it.
And I don’t see any problem with the rhyme. Changing the word find to reach would not affect the tune nor the octaves, but it would make a lot more sense, and it would have more psychological and inspirational impact, in my opinion.
It’s undeniable: we adore cats. Because…so many reasons we all have, we already know they are adorable, so we have to talk about them in this blog, at least once a week.
In fact, your cat probably loves a good ol’ cardboard box way more than the 100% organic, natural latex, and memory foam cat bed that cost more than your own mattress.
How many cats do you have, how many you have had in the past, and are you planning to have more? What kind of cat do you prefer, do you love all kinds of cats? So many things to say about them!
Have you noticed how much money you spend buying them luxurious cat toys that they use for one day or one week and then they go back to play with a dry leave from the yard or a ball of paper you make?
From shipping boxes to pizza boxes, to shoe boxes, there isn’t a single cardboard box a kitty hasn’t liked to curl up in.
First of all: Happy Halloween to all of you who enjoy celebrating holidays as much as I do. I celebrate everything, if I can and my time allows it, I do celebrate holidays of all cultures and countries since we have a cultural diversity at home: White-Anglo-Saxon, American, Mexican, Spanish, Italian, and German. Soon to be added to this beautiful family of mine, Asian!
So, we get to celebrate Halloween and «El Día de Los Muertos» (The Day of the Dead) these coming days. The first one is mainly of Celtic origin in Ireland, the United Kingdom, and Northern France. The second one is, guess from where? Yes, you guessed right: Mexican.
This year we decided to get together, have dinner, talk, enjoy each other’s company, and watch scary movies. This year movies will have a topic: The Scariest Medical Doctors of all Time!
