Peggy Lee - ♫ Is That All There Is ♫


If that's ALL there is my friend, then let's keep DANCING ... :banana: :banana:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VscVP_Gt_s&feature=related


I remember when I was a very little girl, our house caught on fire.
I'll never forget the look on my father's face as he gathered me up
in his arms and raced through the burning building out to the pavement.
I stood there shivering in my pajamas and watched the whole world go up in flames.
And when it was all over I said to myself, "Is that all there is to a fire?"

Is that all there is, is that all there is
If that's all there is my friends, then let's keep dancing
Let's break out the booze and have a ball
If that's all there is

And when I was 12 years old, my father took me to the circus, the greatest show on earth.
There were clowns and elephants and dancing bears
And a beautiful lady in pink tights flew high above our heads.
And as I sat there watching the marvelous spectacle
I had the feeling that something was missing.
I don't know what, but when it was over,
I said to myself, "Is that all there is to a circus?"

Is that all there is, is that all there is
If that's all there is my friends, then let's keep dancing
Let's break out the booze and have a ball
If that's all there is

Then I fell in love, with the most wonderful boy in the world.
We would take long walks by the river or just sit for hours gazing into each other's eyes.
We were so very much in love.
Then one day, he went away. And I thought I'd die -- but I didn't.
And when I didn't I said to myself, "Is that all there is to love?"

Is that all there is, is that all there is
If that's all there is my friends, then let's keep dancing

I know what you must be saying to yourselves.
If that's the way she feels about it why doesn't she just end it all?
Oh, no. Not me. I'm in no hurry for that final disappointment.
For I know just as well as I'm standing here talking to you,
when that final moment comes and I'm breathing my lst breath, I'll be saying to myself,

Is that all there is, is that all there is
If that's all there is my friends, then let's keep dancing
Let's break out the booze and have a ball
If that's all there is

He's the only person he has to fear
He'd only let himself get near

If he stopped bein' so shady
He could have a nice young lady

Desiderata

- by Max Ehrmann



Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.

As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant, they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit.

If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love, for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is perennial as the grass.

Take kindly to the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul.

With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.

Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

Max Ehrmann - 1920

I love my life and being myself, also, tremendously so ... :heart:

Also LOVE a great fantasy construct:

I'd love to be the first woman that lived, on that first day ...

I'd love to have a great one on one w/ such as: Einstein, Jung, Gandhi, Mother Teresa, Monet, Federico Fellini, Jimi Hendrix, Robert Plant, Emmy Lou Harris, Billie Holiday, Martin Luther King, Jr., Janis Joplin, and SO many others ...

I'd love to spend a day as my child, esp. at school and falling asleep ...

I'd love one of those for every one of her years thus far, also ...

I'd love to spend a day as her in the future of her golden years ...

I'd love to spend a day as My Mother ... My Father ... and Brother ... both as children and adults ...

I'd actually like to be them on their last day and experience their deaths ...

These moments would and do fascinate me ... winking

flowerforyou ... IF


- by Rudyard Kipling


If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream - and not make dreams your master,
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936)

Edgar Cayce:

The Divine Initiative, working in Covenants -

... All that we are, everything we have -


We have because we have attracted it to ourselves w/ our thoughts and acts in this life and past lives ...


It is the law of our moral and spiritual being, the law of Karma ...


For each soul, each entity, constantly meets itself ...


... And if each soul would but understand those hardships which are accredited much to others - are caused MOST by SELF ...


flowerforyou ... Know that in those - you ARE meeting yourself!

I don't know if I have the proper formula yet...

Lately I'm going with this: I keep my eyes, my mind, and my heart open to people and places and ideas because if I don't I won't grow. I will flirt with disaster, I will embrace heart ache, I will accept other people for what they are and not be presumptuous. I know I need to grow because I'm not what I want to be yet. Until I am "that" I'll adjust and move with life like a river in a valley. Life is just a harsh landscape I need to work my way through.


Awwww ... You are doing a great job on the obstacle course for your young, tender age ... drinker

And??? The home team is rootin' ya on, uh-huh: ... :banana: ... Go Sunny!!!

Victory is yours, stay steady ...

Your BIG HEART and great humour will get ya there and beyound, not to mention that twinkle in both your eyes and your 3rd eye ... ... flowerforyou

Three scoops double vanilla ice cream, and
one can of strawberry Crush in a large glass,
eat with straw.

Ice cream makes life so simple.

And it's good for the soul. :thumbsup:

I think after the powers that be
invented sex, they said said, now, how can
we top this...hence...ice cream.
Naming it Cherries Garcia was plain genius.
