Brahms’ Lullaby — sung by Chloe Agnew
2min. 34sec.

Innocent children are like stars radiating sparkling warmth and spiritual beauty. How can anyone not be HAPPY in their company? Unless the child is unhappy, then there is a type of selfless joy in doing what can be done for the child’s best interests.

So how is it that the HAPPINESS of children is so easily amplified? A wonder and a mystery for which I am grateful.

God Danced the Day You Were Born — Andrew Lawrence — sung by Hot Soup
2min. 42sec.

My Little Sister sends me a link to this video every year on my birthday, since it was first placed on You Tube. Not only is it a nice remembrance, it makes me HAPPY to listen to this because I know that my sister can sing equally well, a cappella, and she prefers HAPPY, upbeat music for herself, and to share. She has had more than her portion of heartache and tragedy, yet she is of such a strong good heart, that she is always trying to raise the spirits of those close to her.

THUNDERSTRUCK — 2 Cellos
4min. 58sec.

If I am feeling sad or misunderstood or blue, this video cheers me up right away. The concluding applause has not yet failed to evoke a big grin, and at the minimum, from myself, a silent chuckle. Sometimes I laugh out loud.

Δαιμονία Νύμφη Μουσών
3min.  38sec.

The Muses are a source of HAPPINESS by facilitating Voice. Whether perceived and understood, or not, the acts of expression and creation are acts of joy.
In the video clip there is pictured a lovely UNICORN, for Lisa.
.
Please be fore warned, the last two selections are NOT sweetness and light, nor are they My Little Pony.

Requiem — Mozart
1hr 17min. 12sec.

What did Mozart have to transcend to write this? What did this orchestra have to transcend to perform? What had to be overcome for the venue with the beautiful pipe-organ, to even exist? I am taken to a place outside of HAPPINESS, outside of myself, outside of death, by this performance.

FIRE — OST Angels and Deamons — Hans Zimmer
6min.  52sec.

Sometimes the closest I am able to come to HAPPINESS is to say nothing, and so allow those close to me to retain their own HAPPINESS by not becoming aware that I am present and that I am also not present.
.
I REMAIN SILENT
.
I am present.
I am also not present.
I am an observer
Of myself.
I am a guardian
Of my grief.
I am a
Silent voice,
To preserve
The Wa.
My heart is
Somewhere else.
I only pass through
This pleasant
Landscape
As a guide.
I must move gently
Through your HAPPYNESS,
As the voice
Of my silence
Travels on
To somewhere else,
Another life,
Another time.

THE HEART OF THE UNICORN — Gamma Ray
4min. 47 sec.

When I mentioned to my youngest son, as we were discussing amusing things, that the music theme this week is WHERE THE UNICORNS ARE, he said he knew of a UNICORN song, and would send me a link. He did so, and included this sentence “When life gives you marshmallow unicorns, give life speed metal.”

Rivers Flowing In Circles

.
.
All in it’s time,
Though time
Is all gone.
Farewell,
Day is finished,
Night has begun.
.
The rain
Does not stop.
Blue ice vines,
Twine through
Rivers flowing
In circles.

Tout dans son temps,
Bien que le temps
Est tous partis.
Adieu,
Journée est terminée,
Nuit a commencé.
.
La pluie
Ne s’arrête pas.
Vignes de glace bleue,
Ficelle par
Rivières qui coulent
Dans les cercles.

Alles in ist es Zeit,
Obwohl die Zeit
Ist alles weg.
Abschied,
Tag beendet ist,
Nacht hat begonnen.
.
Die regen
Nicht zu stoppen.
Blaue Eis reben,
Durch Verdrehen
Flüsse fließenden
Im Kreis.

Humans can not bring about this RENDEZVOUS. No one knows the hour nor the appointed time … Les êtres humains ne peuvent pas apporter ce rendez-vous … البشر لا يمكن أن تجعل هذا التعيين

.
.
But about that day and about that hour no one knows, not even the Angels of Heaven, but The Father alone

Mathew 24:36
Aramaic Bible in Plain English

_____________________________________

Les êtres humains ne peuvent pas apporter ce rendez-vous.

البشر لا يمكن أن تجعل هذا التعيين

Humans can not bring about this RENDEZVOUS.
No one knows the hour nor the appointed time …
.
Not with mayhem
Not with gore
Not with war
You can not make this happen.
.
Not with wishes
.
Not with prayer
Not with abnegation, no.
.
There is nothing we can do
Except
Live our lives as best we can,
Manifest goodness by example.
Be kind.
And have some descent fun.
And treat our Earth
And homes, and the homes of others,
With care and respect.
These places are not ours.
They all belong to the future.
Everything is only ours to care for.
.
What will our works look like,
In the eyes of our grandchildren?
Oh yes. they will judge us.
What will they find?
Piles of garbage in odd places?
.
Trees grown around metal,
Bullets, nails and wire?
Sea creatures full of plastic
And glow in the dark cats?
Porpoises with multi heads,
Caged foxes with spotted fur?
.
Hormone rivers and
Dead horses?
.
Mutated wolves and
Four legged birds?
.
Corpses of babies
With their heads elsewhere?
.
Are there buttocks in your soup?
.
Is there evidence of barbarism
We thought we’d long outgrown?
.
If we rendevous with
Great grandchildren,
How to explain the permanent
Ghaybah
Apocalypse
Ragnarök
The End Of The World ?
This ongoing mess making chaos?
.
What excuses are there
For sadistic,
Mindless, bad behavior,
With eternal consequences?
.
Ugly cruelty, with
Blood and guts all
Over Mama’s bombed
Out kitchen floor,
Is NOT going
To call any Messiahs.
Not one, not two, NONE, ZERO !!
You cannot
Command God.

.

You are calling for your own death.
A terrible death that is NOT martyrdom
It’s a waste. Murder is sin.
No matter what.
Provoking war is sin.
Not a plea for the Messiah.
.
You devil’s minions,
It is Human Beings who will
Descend on you.
It is the wailing ghosts
Of headless babies
Who will haunt your dreams,
And steal you sleep.
It is the ghosts of
Bloodless Mothers who
Will follow you through
Eternity until you
Change your being
And make good
Your soul debt.
.
There will be a Messiah
Sooner or later,
Or there will not.
.
It is NOT up to you,
Or me.
You can plead and cry and
Chop and kill and wail and die.
No difference as to when.
Only difference
Is Hell, now.
And you die
Your death
As worthles.
.
Turning yourself into a devil,
Gains nothing.
All gone is the good,
The wonderful,
The fun and beautiful.
.
So. You jigging Jinn,
Turn away,
You dancing Devils,
Just STOP.
.

The Glorious Veiled Light

.
.
What question can there be,
That is answered only
When we do not ask,
And only when we know?
.
Are all answers
Available
For everyone?
Is there an end?
.
Are all answers
For everyone the same?
What is that which
Is sought by all?
.
What is revealed?
Is preparation
Of the self
Required?
.
To be able to know
What is revealed,
How will you recognize that
Which permeates everything?
.
What is everywhere, waiting,
Eternally patient,
Revealed in nothing,
In life, and in sacred beauty?
.
Light forever veiled,
Knowable  only as shadows,
What are these shadows?
What is beyond the hidden?
.
