It's like the room just cleared of smoke
I didn't even want the heart you broke
It's yours to keep
You just might need one

Finally found my real name
I won't be me when you see me again
No, I won't be my father's son

I'm more than you know
I'm more than you see here
I'm more than you let me be
I'm more than you know
A body in a soul
You don't see me but you will
I am not invisible

I don't dream, not as such
I don't even think about you that much
Unless I start to think at all

All those frozen days
And your frozen ways
They melt away
Your face like snow

I'm more than you know
I'm more than you see here
I'm more than you let me be
I'm more than you know
A body in a soul
You don't see me but you will
I am not invisible
I am here

There is no them
There is no them
There is no them
There's only us
There's only us
There is no them
There is no them
There's only us
There's only us
There is no them
There is no them
There's only us
There's only us
There is no them
There is no them
There's only us
There's only us

    About John Lennon's great song 'Imagine'

    "I believe visualization is an important part of the process".

    Study Denis E. Waitley, how he brought the visualization program that NASA were using with their astronauts to athletes preparing for the Olympics

    Or as one of the American televangelist preached in 2006 on tv, everything in the material world, first started off as an idea in the immaterial world. Every house was once an idea before the architect drew up the blueprint, and the engineer and builder, built it.

    Go back to the book of Genesis, first there was the word ... he spoke it into existence, and we are creators like God, study the forming of energy into thoughts in Hindu, as was explained to me by a friend.

    We know, from conventional biology, that thoughts are formed in the brain, and that the intelligence signal is sent down the spinal nerve to the diaphragm, lungs , larynx (I'm not a Dr.) etc, so what began as a thought in the brain, went to the body and out into the world.

    of course there is the Maths string theory that everything is literally connected by strings of energy, other theories that Deepak Chopra highlighted that some of the energy that passed through Jesus body while he was alive on Earth is present in the energy system of each one us - all of us, we are that connected.

    So alternative experts would say we have more senses that the five primary senses, and that our gut is very important - that it makes decisions ( I maybe be exaggerating what I heard here, but You often heard people say I felt in my gut or I had a gut feeling) Women are regard as being more perceptive to creation than males, after all it is through their wombs that each of us comes into the world.

    So maybe a thought starts in the gut sensory system... maybe it's all connected, our brain with what is outside, maybe the signal goes through the air to our lungs and is not dependent on the nerve - that's not very scientific and there is no evidence of that but I am trying to highlight that the Universe might be more marvelous that we can imagine in these days,

    Think of talking to yourself ( a voice recorder) speaking to someone in Australia ( a telephone), seeing your family member in America without going there ( video conferencing via Skype!)

    Imagination opens up our tomorrow

    America is a dream that is coming true. So is the EU, So is Ireland So is Israel and hopefully Palestine too.

    The new World Trade Center in New York is a new good dream that is defiant of an evil one. Anything is possible, that's why we have to be careful what we imagine because we are forming energy.

    Think of phenomenon movie "The Secret" - What we focus our energy on, we attract into our lives. I am not saying we attract bad things into our lives; that could be just someone elses evil intention focused on us, in the case above Osama Bin Laden's. Some things are unexplainable, especially awful random and evil things. J K Rowling is right, we need to teach our young people about evil. David and Barbara had a series on Spiritual Warfare a few years ago. I avoided watching it every time it came on, but there must be a case for fighting. Ireland has a history since it's foundation of being a Neutral country. It didn't get officially involved in WWII, though many of her people did. Imagine if Great Britain and the United States hadn't defeated fascism, where would we be today? What would the last almost 70 years have been like - what would our prospects been today had the freedom of democracy succumbed to Hitler's control would we have sorted it out since then, who knows and what about all the people the NAZI's wanted to exterminate - it's a good job, democracy won and democracy would never have won if we didn't fight. And look we got almost 70 years of relative peace and the EU now and it's goodness is still developing.

    It goes without saying, it's not a fair world yet and Osama Bin Laden was wrongly using that anger. In the end he got death and did he achieve fairness? No. A pet phrase of mine is, anything that is achieved only perpetuates that by which it is achieved - I don't know if it is true but Violence only perpetuates Violence. It takes courage to make peace and it takes courage to fight. the bible says there is a time for both. Could never quite understand it. Falls into Bono being fed up hearing that there is going to be peace on Earth.

    Bono is a boxer, he's a fighter, he's hardy nut I wouldn't like to go against. Robbi Williams is right about Bono, he takes it to the fight, he's doesn't shy away from the shadows and cobwebs around things - it's one thing that really helps him pursue the truth and speak it to power, he knows he's powerful and he exercises to learn how to use his power. I am not saying he is fearless or perfect. He's not. What I am saying is he doesn't let his fears rule him.

    I find intelligence gathering objectionable and very challenging for those who do, but if it stops society breaking down or people being killed, it is a necessary part of governments work, I just wish they were more up front about it (transparent).

    There is mental illness about. I know a bit about it. Delusions are real, and people are prepared to act on them, sometimes quietly and quite methodically. A horrific example was the Anders Breivik in Norway, where he bombed and killed scores of young people. These dangerous people have to be found out and stopped and sometimes that means intelligence and fighting. Think of Jack Johnson song..."The world has its ways, To quiet us down.."

    We are a long way from Martin Luther's dream of the whole of humanity in response to his disillusionment with what was happening in the Vietnam war that

    "And the lion and the lamb shall lie down together and every man shall sit under his own vine and fig tree and none shall be afraid." I still believe that We Shall overcome!"

    that was from his Nobel Prize acceptance speech, but I think he used it again with reference to his disillusionment with the war in Vietnam in comparison to the call of Christ.

    anyway this has been a tangent

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
