Why Seek?

Why seek to break the bond of love
We work to make when we're at home
Why look for shores as yet unfound
When feet can scarcely touch the ground
Whereon we stand ?

For it is here we show our form
Not in the dreams as yet unborn
It's here we learn to give and share
Winged thoughts of love meet in the air
And we no longer seek to know
For LOVE is here, to live and grow...

May Peace prevail, as Our Father's Will
Lets Love rain down, thirsty hearts to fill
Lets healing flow, from the Divine Power,
To save the world at this 11th hour
Let's lift our prayers in perfect faith
And know the Joy of God's embrace
As the wicked roam and maim and kill
Let us return, do Our Father's Will !

Love is the question, Love is the answer
From birth to death we are Cosmic Dancers
Treading the beauty of life's tapestry
Giving thanks and praise to LOVE's Majesty
Trusting in God, the Source Divine
Our hearts are filled with Love's sweetest wine
Forgiveness of ignorance, hate fear and sin
Clinging only to Truth, Letting God's love in

So much ghastly mainstream evil. When institutions, put in place to maintain peace and prosperity for a country, resort to wicked ways to 'control' their concept of 'undesirable humans', it shows the veil of civilisation (anagram of live and evil) is but a veneer (rhymes with sneer) that, scratched, reveals the savagery of the dinosaur brain within. Peace, equality, justice, fairness, humanitarianism, are not a given, and must be claimed by every generation.

Do you enjoy playing games online?
I like playing chess, as it helps me unwind
But I often lose when I forget to get back to the game in time!
Have you tried this app?

See mamatrix’s chess highlights for the year.

Just goes to show, new brains are better than old! So for lifelong learning, we'd better start going for wisdom, as it beats cleverness, and love beats wisdom!

The oracle from the i-Ching, the Book of changes. The Dao
You have come out of a long period of anxiety and troubles. All of this is now behind you. Act immediately or you will miss the perfect opportunity to achieve a brilliant success. One old wish of yours in particular will be fulfilled, but a more recent one will have to wait a little longer. You will make new friends. If you travel, the journey will be very enjoyable. This time in your life is very auspicious for making money.

Culture is as culture does!

At my French/English honours interview at Birmingham University, in 1968, the interviewer seated opposite me asked me how I could convince him I was creative.
So I dived under the desk, pulled off his shoes and threw them out of the window, on the 2nd floor!
He accompanied me down in the lift, as I left after the interview
I received an offer of a place!
Koko was far more creative than I was. Putting shoes on, as opposed to taking them off, is a civilised act, and shows culture!

Most people have heard of Koko, the gorilla who could speak about 1000 words in Sign Language, and understand about 2000 in English. What most people don’t know, however, is that Koko was an avid Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood fan. When Fred Rogers took a trip out to meet Koko for his show, not only did she immediately wrap her arms around him and embrace him, she did what she’d always seen him do onscreen: she proceeded to take his shoes off.

I went to the Pardon of Saint Houardon today, at the chapel bearing his name in la Feuillée. He was an immigrant, a British monk, who came to Brittany in the 6th century, to preach the gospel and spread the good news. His piety and renown were such that he was called to be a bishop, among the faithful.
He became the 8th Bishop of St Pol de Leon.
The chapel dedicated to his memory, and intercession for the people of la Feuillée, was the first parish church for the village, until 1860, when the grander church dedicated to St John the Baptist was built in the village centre. The chapel was restored in 1998, four years before my arrival!
The Pardon of St Houardon is held on the first Sunday in September, which signals the end of the summer holidays!
I noticed yesterday, in two days, there was not a swallow to be seen, and all the elder berries had been stripped bare! It seems they, too, know the date to feast, before their long flight south to the tip of Africa, as the world's tilt takes her around the sun, presenting the tropic of Capricorn for the seasonal shift from winter to spring, heralding the tropic of Cancer's retreat into the shorter days and longer nights, spiralling towards winter!
So we celebrate la Rentrée, tomorrow, and wish all those embarking on new studies, and their teachers, a happy and successful year!

Nature has ancient wisdom built in. If we study it we can learn how to live on earth again.
When I was a child, in the 1950s, environmental studies was called Nature Study. We studied living things, without hurting them or disturbing them. What did you call it as a child?

When a female squirrel finds another baby squirrel, she gives him food and makes sure that he is an orphan and has no mother or father, and after 3 days of investigation and actually making sure that he is without family, she takes him gently and feeds him and makes him familiar with living with her and her young as if he was one of her children.

The female squirrel is unique in receiving her husband when he returns with food with kisses and wooing him in order to ease the fatigue of bringing food to her and her young.

The male squirrel always expresses his love for his female by giving her the most beautiful roses and the largest walnuts and almonds...
Mother Squirrel and Father Squirrel A wonderful family for the future of mankind depends on their activity . Half of the seeds you store become new bushes in the forest... ❤️🐿❤️🐿❤️

Thank you so much to nature and wildlife for sharing this, and most of all to the wonderful artiste, Anthony Hopkins, whose fame has always derived from his talent and artistry, and not from the spectacle of a life lived with unfortunate favour in the public eye.
I love his gifts, and his wisdom. Many thanks, and may your soul rest in peace ✌️ 🙏🏻🙌🏻💕

“I know that I have less to live than I have lived.
I feel like a child who was given a box of chocolates. He enjoys eating it, and when he sees that there is not much left, he starts to eat them with a special taste.
I have no time for endless lectures on public laws - nothing will change. And there is no desire to argue with fools who do not act according to their age. And there's no time to battle the gray. I don't attend meetings where egos are inflated and I can't stand manipulators.
I am disturbed by envious people who try to vilify the most capable to grab their positions, talents and achievements.
I have too little time to discuss headlines - my soul is in a hurry.
Too few candies left in the box.
I'm interested in human people. People who laugh at their mistakes are those who are successful, who understand their calling and don't hide from responsibility. Who defends human dignity and wants to be on the side of truth, justice, righteousness. This is what living is for.
I want to surround myself with people who know how to touch the hearts of others. Who, through the blows of fate, was able to rise and maintain the softness of the soul.
Yes, I hustle, I hustle to live with the intensity that only maturity can give. I'll eat all the candy I have left - they'll taste better than the ones I already ate.
My goal is to reach the end in harmony with myself, my loved ones and my conscience.
I thought I had two lives, but it turned out to be only one, and it needs to be lived with dignity.”
Brilliant Anthony Hopkins
and free interpretation of Mario de Andrade’s poem

–Your grandma wore very short mini skirts, thin panties, high boots, and no bra...
–She listened to Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, Janis Joplin, and Rolling Stones.
–She rode on motorcycles and fast cars.
–She smoked to***co and other things...
–She drank gin-tonics, whiskey, and whatever...
–She came home at 4 am and left for work in the morning...
Know that you will never be as cool as your grandma.
Excuse me but someone had to say it!
