Thoughts for Thursday

Just living is not enough. One must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower. ~Hans Christian Anderson

The purpose of life is a life of purpose. ~Robert Byrne


The miracle is not to fly in the air, or to walk on the water, but to walk on the earth. ~Chinese Proverb




I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day. ~Elwyn Brooks White


Life is simple, its just not easy. ~Author Unknown


A life without cause is a life without effect. ~Barbarella


Here is the test to find whether your mission on earth is finished. If you're alive, it isn't. ~Richard Bach

Fabulous Friday...sing along...Don't Go Changin'...

Love Billy Joel...Love this song!!




Don't go changing to try and please me,
you never let me down before...
Don't imagine you're too familiar
and I don't see you anymore...

I could not leave you in times of trouble,
we never would've come this far...
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times,
I'll take you just the way you are...

Don't go trying some new fashion,
don't change the color of your hair...
You always have my unspoken passion
although I might not seem to care...

I don't want clever conversation,
I never want to work that hard...
I just want someone that I can talk to,
I want you just the way you are...

I need to know that you will always be
the same old someone that I knew...
Ah, what will it take till you believe in me
the way that I believe in you?

I said 'I love you', and that's forever,
and this I promise from the heart...
I could not love you any better,
I love you just the way you are...

I don't want clever conversation,
no, no, I never want to work that hard...
I just want someone that I can talk to,
I want you just the way you are oh oh oh ...

Checkout Diana Krall singing I Love You Just the Way You Are

Wow Wednesday!!

Chinese Deaf Dance Group - The Thousand Hands of Buddha

As long as you are kind and there is love in your heart
A thousand hands will naturally come to your aid
As long as you are kind and there is love in your heart
You will reach out with a thousand hands to help others

I put this vid up because you can actually see people on the side directing movements

I Sing the Body Electric!......Musical Monday

I love this song! It suddenly popped into my head this evening.
I enjoy a good musical and FAME was pretty good.
I forget when it came out...in the 80's I think (I don't feel like looking it up, sorry).
Enjoy this song and sing along :-)


Here's your bonus vid...Out Here on My Own..with a very young Irene Cara.
