music, thoughts, books, dreams, more
Just my world of dreams, music and thoughts. Author of two books, one a novel of Love stories set in Framingham, Mass, Secrets of the Heart the 2nd book an autobiography of growing up in Framingham, Mass. Small Town America, Framingham My generation was the first teenage generation, that was when the word was coined. Ours was the generation that started cruising through town and to the drive in theater and drive in restaurant. In our area, Ernie Kampersal,from Holliston, drove his bucking car through town, picking up girls. It rose in the air, like a stallion! We went to the soda shops and played the juke boxes. It was a different town, a different time, and it belonged to us!

Nat King Cole sings "When I Fall in Love"
One of our very favorite songs of the past
Caroline Myss/Living In Gratitude
See how good her message is here, then decide if you like her enough to buy her books and use them as bibles, as I do. She is not the only one that teachs good ways to handle life.

THE GOSPEL OF MARY AND MAGDALENIC GNOSIS
The Hellenic approach to the soul. Maybe the Ancient people knew more than we know today?
The Lost Tomb of Jesus 8/10
, The Mystery continues. It is not for one to make a decision, it is for one to keep an open mind and learn, learn, learn. If you like mystery, what is wrong with having this be your mystery, right or wrong?
South To A Warmer Place
On Siriusly Sinatra, I heard Frank sing this. The song is without excitement for me, my husband agreed. We wondered why he bothered to sing it? The exercise in voice is not necessarily what the public wants. What makes an artist sing a song ? What is the decision making? In books, it is what is popular , it appeals to a group of self help, etc....In music, what makes artists want to sing this particular song, other than an exercise in voice...? What do you hear in this presentation that is appealing, I noted below more likes than dislikes. But, this is important for young artists. In my estimation this song is not worth the effort, but then what do I know...because the applause is polite.
