The Word
Graeme Edge
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


This garden universe vibrates complete
Some, we get a sound so sweet
Vibrations reach on up to become light
And then through gamma, out of sight

Between the eyes and ears there lie
The sounds of colour and the light of a sigh
And to hear the sun, what a thing to believe
But it's all around if we could but perceive

To know ultraviolet, infrared and X-rays
Beauty to find in so many ways
Two notes of the chord, that's our full scope
But to reach the chord is our life's hope
And to name the chord is important to some
So they give a word, and the word is...:wink:

OM

The rain is on the roof
Hurry high, butterfly
As clouds roll past my head
I know why the skies all cry

OM
OM
Heaven
OM

The Earth turns slowly round
Far away the distant sound
Is with us everyday
Can you hear what it says?

OM
OM
Heaven
OM

The rain is on the roof
Hurry high, butterfly
As clouds roll past my head
I know why the skies all cry

OM
OM
Heaven

my ((((((((famillia))))))) lovingly call me "Z" (pronounced Zee to the canucks)laugh morning Lady Rapunzel!flowerforyou

inspiration for me comes from songs such as this...


"Unwritten"
I am unwritten, can't read my mind, I'm undefined
I'm just beginning, the pen's in my hand, ending unplanned

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions

[Chrous:]
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

Oh, oh, oh

I break tradition, sometimes my tries, are outside the lines
We've been conditioned to not make mistakes, but I can't live that way

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions

[Chrous:]
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins

[Chrous:]
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions

[Chrous:]
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins

[Chrous:]
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten
The rest is still unwritten
The rest is still unwritten

Oh, yeah, yeah

Ahhh, my friends, I send you warm greetings on a chilly morning. Ohh wait <lighter sounds in background>, <inhales> 'twas a lovely sunrise ("here take this"), and a good drive into town <exhales> then I was informed that I could have gotten up three hours later to be at an appointment which was changed. Lovely way to start a day.

May the sun shine on you today, but if it must rain, let it come with smiles attached.

SHAGGY LYRICS

"Keep'n It Real"

Uh - thats right
Reality check
You kno what I mean
Street lifes eh
Scorpion yeah uh

When I was young
I used to dream of being rich
Have alot of houses and cars
Couldn't know which one was which
And finding me a chick and getting hitched
Living the fairy tale life perfect without a ditch
You think that this would bring me happiness
If at the end of every rainbow
There was a treasure chest
Sometimes having more is really less
So take a look inside yourself
You'll realize you're really blessed
No matter how you're sad or blue
There's always someone who has it worse than you
Sometimes you gotta pay your dues
So don't worry just push on through

Keep'n it real
Gotta big up all my peoples who be working on the future
Though they know they gotta struggle
Keep'n it real
To all my homies working on the 9 to 5
And doing right to keep themselves up out of trouble
Keep'n it real
Although sometimes I know it seems impossible
There ain't no need in drowning in your sorrows
Keep'n it real
If things are as bad as they can be
You can be sure there'll be a brighter tomorrow

And I forgot to have myself the house, the mansion, and the Benz
I'm not the type of brother who be making mad ends
I got myself a girl but we be kickin' it as friends
Is not enough for me now that depends
Again- not everthing you want is everything you really need
The standard of society is motivated by greed
Are you prepared to follow
Tell me are you prepared to lead
So persevere and you'll succeed

Keep'n it real
Gotta big up all my peoples who be working on the future
Though they know they gotta struggle
Keep'n it real
To all my homies working on the 9 to 5
And doing right to keep themselves up out of trouble
Keep'n it real
Although sometimes I know it seems impossible
There ain't no need in drowning in your sorrows
Keep'n it real
If things are as bad as they can be
You can be sure there'll be a brighter tomorrow

[Hook]
All the harsh realities
Appears to come in two's and Three's
Don't worry cuz
There'll be a better day
One thing I can promise you
Just keep on keeping on
I swear to you
There's gonna be a brighter day

Keep'n it real
Gotta big up all my peoples who be working on the future
Though they know they gotta struggle
Keep'n it real
To all my homies working on the 9 to 5
And doing right to keep themselves up out of trouble
Keep'n it real
Although sometimes I know it seems impossible
There ain't no need in drowning in your sorrows
Keep'n it real
If things are as bad as they can be
You can be sure there'll be a brighter tomorrow

Back in the days
I used to dream of being rich
Have alot of houses and cars
Couldn't know which one was which
And finding me a chick and getting hitched
Living the fairy tale life perfect witout a ditch
You think that this would bring me happiness
If at the end of every rainbow there was a treasure chest
Sometimes having more is really less
So take a look inside yourself
You'll realize you're really blessed
No matter how you're sad or blue
There's always someone who has it worse than you
Sometimes you gotta pay your dues
So don't worry just push on through

Keep'n it real
Gotta big up all my peoples who be working on the future
Though they know they gotta struggle
Keep'n it real
To all my homies working on the 9 to 5
And doing right to keep themselves up out of trouble
Keep'n it real
Although sometimes I know it seems impossible
There ain't no need in drowning in your sorrows
Keep'n it real
If things are as bad as they can be
You can be sure there'll be a brighter tomorrow

That's right, see me, yeah
Give thanks fa wha you have, ya kno
And when you think that its bad
There's always somebody that's worse
Kno what I'm sayin'
Give Jah blessing, see me
Wa-wa, Wa-wa
Wa-wa, wa-wa

Good morning my dear ones..I'm a little ,ok ,a lot late this morning.

I'm sitting here now drinking my first cup of coffee for the day and thinking, am I too nice?? I'm often told I am far too nice to people and I allow the to take advantage of me.Am I? Those of you who know me really know me could answer this, but I have too answer it for myself.

I'm the type of gurl who will give my last dollar to anyone who needed it, give the shirt off my back, do for others in need.From the materialistic side to the spiritual side...and at some point I think I lose me in there someplace.How much is too much??I don't really know.I've written of my living situation before but haven't gone into much detail, though some know because they've known me for so long.I live at my childhood home, my brother bought it from my Dad after my momma had passed.I moved down here 3 years ago,to help my self and my brother's family out.I was a mess when I came back home, I needed to be here, then..now I am not so sure this is good for me any more.My brother and his wife needed affordable day care for their 3 children and some financial help, so I came home.
I bailed them out of trouble, they were on the verge of losing the house, I had cash from selling my own home to pay off lawyers and fines for some legal trouble I got my own stupid ass into.So I paid off what was delinquent on the family homestead.I've become the nanny for my nieces and nephew, I've bailed my brother out of financial trouble again and again..I can no longer do this as I have nothing left to sell..I sold my Harley this past summer to pay off an electric bill. I've got nothing left but my shi*t box car, and right now I am the only one here with a valid license and registered vehicle, so I drive everyone everywhere..to work, to the store.My housing comes with the job and I get paid a bi weekly salary, but more often then not I end up helping them and not having much left for my self
I'm miserable here to be totally honest, I have no freedom, no life..I feel as if I am still paying the price for being a screw up.

This weekend my sister in law wants to go to Queens(NYC) to spend the weekend with her father, being how she hasn't told him yet that shes an idiot and didn't pay the insurance so they have no licenses or cars, I have been "asked" to put it politely to drive her and the 3 kids down to the city tomorrow and pick them up on Monday. I haven't answered anyone yet..because I really don't want to go, I hate the city , hate driving in it.The only other choice is to allow my sister in law to take my car..thus leaving me in upstate New York for 4 days with no car and knowingly allowing an unlicensed driver to take my car...at what point do I stop being too nice and stop doing for others??? Where do I draw the line ??? As I have typed this out I have been thinking and thinking, for the first time ever my family is going to be told NO..loudly ..I am not driving her down to the city, I am not allowing her to take my car either.I cannot allow my self to be taken advantage of like this any more,I'm losing me and the more of me I lose the less human I become.

If you are like me , being too nice, maybe its time for you as well to step back and learn to say NO loudly , we are all we have and to lose ourselves like this is far more damaging than anything else I can imagine, so if you are at all anything like me stand up with me today and take your self back.

((((((((Vanessa)))))))):heart: flowerforyou
((((((((Z sis))))))))):heart: flowerforyou

Please forgive my morning ranting, I just get over whelmed sometimes and I express my self far better in writing than I do speaking.Curse of the poet I suppose.

This mornings batch of lyrics and inspiration has been so blessed for me, something I needed very much today, what ever forces are out there in this universe, God or Goddess, has this most wondrous way of giving us what we need when we need it in the most mysterious ways, this morning lyrics from Vanessa and Z, will touch more than just myself today and will impart many different messages upon each readers soul.
