Tracking reflections

Mesmerising quote. Discussions. Arguments.
Discussions are always better then arguments, because an argument is to find out who is right, and a discussion is to find what is right. 

Balance. Life.
Life is about balance. Be kind, but don't let people abuse you. Trust, but don't be deceived. Be content, but never stop improving yourself. - Necole Stephens. 

Positive Outlook.
"No matter how badly people treat you, never drop down to their level. Choose to keep your peac and walk away."

Hope. Recovery. Love. Light. Laughter.
Hope in Recovery through Love, Light and Laughter.
"I'm not a perfect person. I make a lot of mistakes. But I reallyy appreciate those people who stay with me afer knowing how I really am."

Success. Success is doing ordinary things extraordinary well." - Jim Rohm.

Self-righteous Comments.
"Too full of  yourself"??
You've just made a ridiculuos claim tgat a performance by Janet Baker and Murray Perahia, two great artists particularly noted for performing Schubert's music  - a very amorphous and unspecific criticism - and then you accuse my friend of being full of himself for having the temerity to disagree with you? That's a knee-slapper.
Now, why don't you demonstrate your superior Schubert chops and enlighten us all as to just what is wrong with this performance...

Holding on to something annoyances

Do you ever want to say something that's annoying you off, but you know it could start trouble or an argument, so you hold inside and let it drive you crazy? Oh yes!

Pondering on The Dream of Gerontius

Languishing...
Longing for something whilst contemplating as Gerontius travels from his mortal soul.

Intense soul searching looking for something hungering within.

Nothing beats listening to Dame Janet Baker sing "Softly and Gently" from Sir Edward Elgar's The Dream of Gerontius, Op 38. Janet Baker--Mezzo-soprano. Sir John Barbirolli--Conductor. Hallé Orchestra.  Uploaded by liederoperagreats. Accessed July 7, 2019.

Abigail's Song

When you're alone, silence is all you know.  

What a beautiful song! Out of the blue, I thought about it today and simply wanted to listen to the sound of it.   

Abigail's Song is significant to me. It was included in our Sydney Philharmonia Choirs' Carols at the House 2014.




 

When you're alone, silence is all you see.
When you're alone, silence is all you'll be.
Give me your hand and come to me.

When you are here, music is all around.
When you are near, music is all around.
Open your eyes, don't make a sound.

Let me in the shadow, Let me in the shadow.
Let me in the light of your shadow.

Let me in the shadow, Let me in the shadow.
Let me in the light of your shadow.


Katherine Jenkins sings Abigail's Song (Silence is all you Know).
Song from Doctor Who Christmas Special 2010, A Christmas Carol.
