Grace And Gratitude
Olivia Newton-Johns starred in the DVD that I watched by Deepak Chopra "The Seven Spiritual Laws Of Success", she wrote and sang on the DVD and brought back the fact that I love her and her music and her spiritual journey. I want her CD "Grace And Gratitude" and will get the CD soon. The Chopra DVD is very good and inspirational, informative, and challenging.

Refugee
Absolutely love this song. For the last couple of days, since my surgery last Tuesday, many things have been popping in my dreams, have no idea if my dreams are induced by the drugs for the pain or just simply my spirit telling me "its time to wake up". I'm inclined to believe it's spirit, God, the divine wisdom that resides in me. As my friend Linda so amply put this morning, "i don't have to eat the whole elephant at one time." Which tends to be what happens when I've finally made up my mind. So, for the month of June will be trying an experiment, will be asking spirit, Jesus, God, the divine what's one thing to do today, and then do that one thing whatever it is. Will not be living as a refugee anymore...

Song I Hate
I'm giving up on you
How could I ever call you mine
You're too pretty, too simple, too easy
You're just a waste of time, yeah
And I won't miss you when you're gone
You never move me anyway
I wanna wish you all the best and send you off
I hope somebody finds you entertaining
You're the song I hate
But I can't let go
You're the song I hate
But I can't let go
You know it gets so hard, so hard to keep moving on
Through all your petty little changes
Sometimes I wish I could just close my eyes
Wish you away
You're the song I hate
But I can't let go
You're the song I hate
But I can't let go
You're the song I (x3)
You're the song I hate
I tried so hard to change you to make you
Something I could enjoy
But you insist on just acting the plaything
You're just a toy, just a toy
You're the song I hate
But I can't let go
You're the song I hate
But I can't let go
You're the song I (x3)
You're the song that I hate
You're the song I hate
But I can't let go
You're the song I hate
But I can't let go
Yeah
The song that I hate
Uh!
You're the song I hate
How could I ever call you mine
You're too pretty, too simple, too easy
You're just a waste of time, yeah
And I won't miss you when you're gone
You never move me anyway
I wanna wish you all the best and send you off
I hope somebody finds you entertaining
You're the song I hate

Yeah
The song that I hate
Uh!
You're the song I hate

Pocket Full Of Sunshine.
This song says how I am feeling... I just added my photo to it.
"Pocketful Of Sunshine"
[Interlude]
I got a pocket,
got a pocket full of sunshine
I've got a love and I know that it's all mine
oh.oh,oh
Do what you want,
but you're never gonna break me,
sticks and stones are never gonna shake me
oh,oh,oh
[Chorus]
Take me away (take me away)
A secret place (a secret place)
A sweet escape (a sweet escape)
Take me away (take me away)
Take me away (take me away
To better days (to better days)
Take me away (take me away)
A hiding place (a hiding place)
[Interlude]
I got pocket,
Got a pocket full of sunshine
I've got a love and I know that it's all mine
oh,oh,oh
Wish that you could,
but you ain't gonna own me
do anything you can to control me
oh,oh,oh
[Chorus]
[Hook]
There's a place that I go
That nobody knows
Where the rivers flow
And I call it home
And there's no more lies
And the darkness is light
And nobody cries
there's only butterflies
[Chorus 2x]
[Chorus & Interlude]
The sun is on my side
Take me for a ride
I smile up to the sky
I know I'll be alright
The sun is on my side
Take me for a ride
I smile up to the sky
I know I'll be alright

Don't Worry Be Happy
My first full day home, nothing seems to be going right. Why is it so hard to find a doctor, when you tell them what kind of insurance you have, the reject you? I called a list of 15 doctors, all of them said not accepting new patients at this time. One said maybe in February and to call back then.
I remember Bobby McFerrin back when I was in middle school, 8th grade. "Don't Worry Be Happy", brought a smile to my face then and it still does now. Though, I am understanding the lyrics better than I did when I was 14 years old. Enjoy the video.

Chills
No, not from the bizzare snowy weather we are having, but from a drummer named Neal Peart from the band Rush. I love drums, watching drummers, especially good ones. My friend Monte is one of these, a fabulous drummer. Anyway, here is a great youtube video... enjoy

I Do
Another one of my favorite artists, Lisa Loeb. I love her style, and her songwriting talent, and her talent period.
"I do" one of my favorite songs by her, and now I finally have her greatest hits CD and am playing it to death.

Big Girls Don't Cry!
This songs been around a year so, I've just discovered it and it says how I am feeling about some things...
The Lyrics:
The smell of your skin lingers on me now
You're probably on your flight back to your home town
I need some shelter of my own protection, baby
To be with myself and center
Clarity, peace, serenity
I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It's personal, myself and I
We've got some straightening out to do
And I"m gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But I've got to get a move on with my life
It's time to be a big girl now
and big girls don't cry
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry
The path that I"m walking, I must go alone
I must take baby steps 'til I'm full grown, full grown
Fairy tales don't always have a happy ending, do they?
And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay
I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It's personal, myself and I
We've got some straightening out to do
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But I've got to get a move on with my life
It's time to be a big girl now
and big girls don't cry
LIke the little school mate in the school yard
we'll play jacks and uno cards
I'll be your best friend and you'll be mine
Valentine
Yes you can hold my hand if you want to
'Cause I want to hold yours too
We'll be playmates and lovers
and share our secret worlds
but it's time for me to go home
It's getting late, dark outside
I need to be with myself and center
Clarity, peace, serenity
I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It's personal, myself and I
We've got some straightening out to do
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But I've got to get a move on wiht my life
It's time to be a big girl now
And big girls don't cry
Don't cry, Don't cry, Don't cry.

Dog And Butterfly
A dream of mine came true Sunday night, I saw Heart live. I love Hearts' music, ever since I was a young girl and there first album "Dreamboat Annie" came out in 1976. I remember my sister Vickie and I singing the song "Dog and Butterfly" together. I wish my sister Vickie could have been there with me, but she was unable. Journey was awesome too, even the new lead singer gave his all and pulled it off. I enjoyed singing along to all the words with my friend Amber and seeing Ann and Nancy perform live... You girls Rock!!! Thanks for sharing your talent...

Songs Of Mass Destruction
I am in LOVE. Yes, you read it right, in LOVE. I discovered an album by Annie Lennox called “Songs Of Mass Destruction.” I love Annie Lennox, her voice, her lyrics and songs she picks is wow. I’m listening to it now while I am typing this. The songs she picks makes me think she is a mystic at heart, full of wisdom. I love every song on “Songs Of Mass Destruction.” That does not happen to me often, only a few have done that to me. Here is one of the songs that just absolutely smite me in my heart and soul. The song called “Big Sky”.
ANNIE LENNOX
Big Sky
Big sky
I'm gonna hurt you
Big sky
You'll remember this
Big sky
Up above the rain
How can I ever put a stop to it?
Look you in the face again
Big sky
I'll never let you go
Big sky
Baby I told you so
Big sky
Look at this swollen pride
I got so busy lookin' out for you
When were you by my side?
When I'm breathin'
When I'm sleepin'
I can't think of nothing else
All my longing'
All my waiting'
All my wailin'
All my standin' on the shelf
How am I ever gonna get through this
Back to myself again?
Big sky
I never knew you
Big sky
Let me down again
Big sky
I'm givin' you the blame
How did I ever get stuck in this?
Give me some grace again
Won't you say it isn't so?
Watch me fallin'
See me fallin'
I slipped through
The vortex of the sky
Darkness and light
Is what's inside
Darkness and light
Is what's inside
Check it out, listen to it in a dark room, with your eyes closed, and you will feel every emotion that is behind each song. This album is not one to play while cleaning house, or doing any other task. It is meant to make you contemplate, evaluate, and feel the passion behind every word and note.

Come On, Come Out
A Fine Frenzy, the song is called Come on, Come Out. I like her voice, the lyrics to her songs, and the way she plays.

I Want To Know What Love Is
I couldn't find a Wynonna version of this song, but it was on my same CD. Foreigner wrote and sang the song first. I remember it when I was a kid. It hit me hard, like it did today.
