    Brons's Interests
General
Softkey Left softkey Right
MusicI enjoy just about everything except operatic singing. If I have to narrow it down, I really prefer 20th century improvisational music that doesn't become too discordant. That could be anything from Scott Joplin, Jelly Roll Morton and Satchmo through the Duke, the Count and Benny Goodman to Elvis, the Beatles, Janis Joplin, Janis Ian, Eric Clapton, Santana and the Dead to The Squirrel Nut Zippers, Junoon, Mo'Rockin, Emilie Autumn, the Memphis Pilgrims and the Curmudgeons, Andrew Bird, Twiddle, 3 and Coheed & Cambria and Sidpa Bardo.

I have to confess that I'm the teensiest bit biased about the last few. Sidpa Bardo is my son Ian's band, and Josh and Joey Eppard of C&C and 3, are my cousin Jimmy's sons, and Jimmy played with the Curmudgeons and 12 other bands including The Band.

Flight

Caress the wind
With your feathered wings
Meadows to seek
O fly away

Let you heart guide you to home
And paradise
watch the wind
Floating away to sea

Water splashes on your face
Sun shines on your back
Let your heart roam
Fly away

Fate's threads await their snatching
Your soul so bright
By day and night
Let freedom sing

"The Power Of Acceptance"

"It is permissible to take life's blessings with both hands provided thou dost know thyself prepared in the opposite event to take them just as gladly. This applies to food and friends and kindred, to anything God gives and takes away... As long as God is satisfied do thou rest content. If he is pleased to want something else of thee, still rest content."

-~Meister Eckhart

Our life begins to change in magical ways when we open to the experience of life AS IT IS. With acceptance, we stop fighting what is happening. And this creates space, an opening for new relationships to unfold.

Explore unconditionally saying yes to the facts of life. Accept your past and where you are now. Unconditional acceptance is unconditional love and this is healing.



"Sometimes what seems like surrender isn't surrender at all. It's about what's going on in our hearts. About seeing clearly the way life is and accepting it and being true to it, whatever the pain, because the pain of not being true to it is far, far greater."

-** Nicholas Evans

Blessings to you friend ,
Wherever you are,
I wish you all good things
Your friend,

"A hundred times a day I remind myself
that my inner and outer life depends
on the labors of other men,
living and dead,
and that I must exert myself in order
to give in the measure as I have received
and am still receiving."

** Albert Einstein



We all have a special part on this ever expanding Universe,
everybody is important and a vital part of the present moment, like notes in the Divine Symphony.
We are all one!


With my best wishes of a new wonderful week ahead
In loving gratitude for your presence in my life
Your friend

Three passions have governed my life:
The longings for love, the search for knowledge,
And unbearable pity for the suffering of [humankind].

Love brings ecstasy and relieves loneliness.
In the union of love I have seen
In a mystic miniature the prefiguring vision
Of the heavens that saints and poets have imagined.

With equal passion I have sought knowledge.
I have wished to understand the hearts of [people].
I have wished to know why the stars shine.

Love and knowledge led upwards to the heavens,
But always pity brought me back to earth;
Cries of pain reverberated in my heart
Of children in famine, of victims tortured
And of old people left helpless.
I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot,
And I too suffer.

This has been my life; I found it worth living.

***Bertrand Russell:adapted

Wishing you a beautiful rest of week, with as
many blessings in your life as your heart may desire,
Your friend,
all ways

Happy Earth Day weekend from Progress Ohio!

Find events near you at our new Earth Day website:
progressearth.blogspot.com

3 things you can do today to help stop global warming:
*Unplug unused electronics. Even when electronic devices are turned off, they use energy. Save over 1,000 lbs of carbon dioxide per year.
*Replace 3 frequently used light bulbs with compact fluorescent bulbs, and save 300 lbs. of carbon dioxide per year.
*Take shorter showers. Showers account for 2/3 of all water heating costs. Save 350 lbs. of carbon dioxide per year.

"When I dare to be powerful, to use my strength in the service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid."
**Audre Lorde,
American writer and activist,
1934-1992

At some point in the future, you are going to look back on all the things you wanted to do with your life and either say "I did it!"
or "I wish I had..." Of course, if the first statement is the one
you'll want to make, you'll need to begin immediately making those words come true. If you choose the latter, however, you need do nothing. Wishing is free. Everything else comes with a price.

I sincerely wish you all bontiful things,
and a beautiful week, my dear friend
with deep respect
Your friend,

I thank you God for this most amazing day, for the leaping greenly spirits of trees,and for the blue dream of sky and for everything which is natural, which is infinite, which is yes.
**e. e. cummings

As we become conscious as Souls,
we walk our journey purposefully,
embracing the reality of our earthly nature along with the truth of our divine nature.



The earth laughs in flowers.
**e. e. cummings

I sincerely wish you all things good
From my heart to your heart
with deep respect
Your friend,
