I've Grown Accustomed to His Heart! (LLJL)
To my Surprise and Delight
I find that I will be missing my Sweet Angel Man
as he heads back to the City for work...
Friday can't come soon enough...
Oh and Thank You Spirit...
For sending me the Greatest & Highest
Expression and Embodiment of True Love,
Anyone could Hope for..
Truly, Spirit Always Knows Best! :)

I guess Lerner and Loewe said it best for me...
(With a little variation and additional last verse, on my part, of course:)
"Damn! Damn! Damn! Damn!
I've grown accustomed to his face.
He almost makes the day begin.
I've grown accustomed to the tune
That he whistles night and noon.
His smiles, his frowns,
His ups, his downs
Are second nature to me now,
Like breathing out and breathing in.
I was serenly independent
And content before we met.
Surely I could always be that way again - and yet,
I've grown accustomed to his look,
Accustomed to his voice,
Accustomed to his face.
I'm so used to hear him say,
"Good morning" ev'ry day.
His joys, his woes,
His highs, his lows,
Are second nature to me now,
Like breathing out and breathing in.
I'm very grateful he's a man,
And so easy to forget, rather like a habit
One can always break - and yet,
I've grown accustomed to the trace,
Of something in the air,
Accustomed to his face.
It's so disconcerting to me now
At my sadness when we part
Still I am so grateful for his presence in my life
I've grown accustomed to the Love
He shares so willingly,
Accustomed to his Heart!

I love Alanis and her passion and the integrity of the honesty in her words and her body of work...
Yes, she's raw...but she's authentic!
I just wanted to share this video and words to express my gratitude for the unconditional love
that I have felt here among your beautiful hearts...
I Love You..." And I'm still here..."

Lyrics - Everything by Alanis Morissette
I can be an asshole of the grandest kind
I can withhold like it's going out of style
I can be the moodiest baby
And you've never met anyone
who is as negative as I am sometimes
I am the wisest woman you've ever met.
I am the kindest soul with whom you've connected.
I have the bravest heart that you've ever seen
And you've never met anyone
Who's as positive as I am sometimes.
You see everything, you see every part
You see all my light and you love my dark
You dig everything of which I'm ashamed
There's not anything to which you can't relate
And you're still here
I blame everyone else, not my own partaking
My passive-aggressiveness can be devastating
I'm terrified and mistrusting
And you've never met anyone as,
As closed down as I am sometimes.
You see everything, you see every part
You see all my light and you love my dark
You dig everything of which I'm ashamed
There's not anything to which you can't relate
And you're still here
What I resist, persists, and speaks louder than I know
What I resist, you love, no matter how low or high I go
I'm the funniest woman you've ever known.
I am the dullest woman you've ever known.
I'm the most gorgeous woman you've ever known
And you've never met anyone as, as everything as I am sometimes.
You see everything, you see every part
You see all my light and you love my dark
You dig everything of which I'm ashamed
There's not anything to which you can't relate
And you're still here
And you're still here
And you're still here...
I Believe I Can Fly - Lyrics by R Kelly
I Believe I Can Fly note by Linda Lorenzo
My Sisters and Brothers,
Just coming off of an incredible weekend...
And this song, its beautiful lyrics and all encompassing meaning...
Says it all for me...
It is the place of ultimate experience and consciousness...
I wish this place of being for you all, too...
Tis s a good day to be....
Tis a good time to soar...
I Believe We Can Fly!!!!
(LYRICS)
"I Believe I Can Fly"
Lyrics by R KELLY
I used to think that I could not go on
And life was nothing but an awful song
But now I know the meaning of true love
I'm leaning on the everlasting arms
If I can see it, then I can do it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it
[1]
I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
See I was on the verge of breaking down
Sometimes silence can seem so loud
There are miracles in life I must achieve
But first I know it starts inside of me, oh
If I can see it, then I can do it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it
[1]
I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
Hey, cuz I believe in me, oh
If I can see it, then I can be it
If I just believe it, there's nothing to it
[1]
I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky
I think about it every night and day
Spread my wings and fly away
I believe I can soar
I see me running through that open door
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
I believe I can fly
Hey, if I just spread my wings
I can fly
I can fly
I can fly, hey
If I just spread my wings
I can fly
Fly-eye-eye

Only Love is Real - Carole King
Only Love is Real
(music and lyrics by Carole King)
As I bask in the glow of a just-lit fire
Feeling the warmth as the flame grows higher
I think it's true that nothing is really new under the sun
Watching a new love grow from old love's embers
Yesterday's gone but today remembers
Doesn't it seem to come down the same for everyone
Only love is real
Everything else illusion
Adding to the confusion of the way we connive
At being alive
Tracing a line till we can define
The thing that allows us to feel
Only love is real
Childhood dreams like muddy waters
Flowing through me to my son and daughters
Everything I ever thought is confirmed as truth to me
Even as I see the way that I want to go now
Still I wish I had known what I know now
Maybe I could have spared you giving your youth to me
Only love is real
Everything else illusion
Adding to the confusion of the way we contrive
To just stay alive
Tracing a line till we can define
The thing that allows us to feel
Only love is real
(music and lyrics by Carole King)
As I bask in the glow of a just-lit fire
Feeling the warmth as the flame grows higher
I think it's true that nothing is really new under the sun

Only love is real
Everything else illusion
Adding to the confusion of the way we connive
At being alive
Tracing a line till we can define
The thing that allows us to feel
Only love is real
Childhood dreams like muddy waters
Flowing through me to my son and daughters
Everything I ever thought is confirmed as truth to me
Even as I see the way that I want to go now
Still I wish I had known what I know now
Maybe I could have spared you giving your youth to me
Only love is real

Adding to the confusion of the way we contrive
To just stay alive

We Are All in This Together - Carole King
We Are All In This Together
Carole King
The just are seeking justice
The meek are reaching out
For something only children
Can really know about
And some men cry for mercy
While they deny their brothers' pain
And some men laugh for reasons
They can never quite explain
We are all in this together
And maybe we'll see that one day
When we conquer our fear together
When we finally find a way
And we all need forgiving
For all the damage done
For the things we do, not thinking
For the hurt that we've caused someone
But me, I keep on living
Caught somewhere there between
The reason and the meaning
The vision and the dream
We are all in this together
I know that seems easy to say
But I don't use the word forever
It's enough just to say someday
Carole King
The just are seeking justice

And maybe we'll see that one day
When we conquer our fear together
When we finally find a way
And we all need forgiving
For all the damage done
For the things we do, not thinking
For the hurt that we've caused someone
But me, I keep on living
Caught somewhere there between
The reason and the meaning
The vision and the dream
We are all in this together
I know that seems easy to say
But I don't use the word forever
It's enough just to say someday
The Thank U Song ~ Alanis Morissette
"Thank U"
Song and Lyrics, Alanis Morissette
how bout getting off these antibiotics
how bout stopping eating when I'm full up
how bout them transparent dangling carrots
how bout that ever elusive kudo
thank you india
thank you terror
thank you disillusionment
thank you frailty
thank you consequence
thank you thank you silence
how bout me not blaming you for everything
how bout me enjoying the moment for once
how bout how good it feels to finally forgive you
how bout grieving it all one at a time
thank you india
thank you terror
thank you disillusionment
thank you frailty
thank you consequence
thank you thank you silence
the moment I let go of it was the moment
I got more than I could handle
the moment I jumped off of it
was the moment I touched down
how bout no longer being masochistic
how bout remembering your divinity
how bout unabashedly bawling your eyes out
how bout not equating death with stopping
thank you india
thank you providence
thank you disillusionment
thank you nothingness
thank you clarity
thank you thank you silence

Galileo ~ Indigo Girls
Galileo by the Indigo Girls
Was just listening to this song today....and just had to share it...
It's one of my all time favorites...:)
It's just fun!
Galileo
Indigo Girls
words and music Emily Saliers
Galileo's head was on the block
the crime was looking up for truth
and as the bombshells of my daily fears explode
I try to trace them to my youth
And then you had to bring up reincarnation
over a couple of beers the other night
and now I'm serving time for mistakes
made by another in another lifetime
How long till my soul gets it right
can any human being ever reach that kind of light
I call on the resting soul of galileo
king of night vision, king of insight
And then I think about my fear of motion
which I never could explain
some other fool across the ocean years ago
must have crashed his little airplane
How long till my soul gets it right
can any human being ever reach that kind of light
I call on the resting soul of galileo
king of night vision, king of insight
I'm not making a joke, you know me
I take everything so seriously
if we wait for the time till all souls get it right
then at least I know there'll be no nuclear annihilation
in my lifetime I'm still not right
I offer thanks to those before me
that's all I've got to say
'cause maybe you squandered big bucks in your lifetime
now I have to pay
but then again it feels like some sort of inspiration
to let the next life off the hook
but she'll say "look what I had to overcome from my last life
I think I'll write a book"
How long till my soul gets it right
can any human being ever reach the highest light
except for Galileo God rest his soul
(except for the resting soul of Galileo)
king of night vision, king of insight
How long
(till my soul gets it right)
[til we reach the highest light]
how long
(till my soul gets it right)
[til we reach the highest light]
how long
