TWEETS

SOMETIMES I CAN FEEL LIKE ‘THE CAGED BIRD THAT SINGS’.

THE OTHER DAY I WAS FEELING VERY WEEPY AS THE CALENDAR DAYS SHOWED ME THAT VERY SOON I WAS TO BE BOARDING A PLANE TO FLY ‘HOME’ TO ONTARIO TO BE NEAR MY CLOSE ONES THERE. I AM NOT SAD ABOUT BEING HERE BUT MY DNA IS TELLING ME IT’S TIME TO RETURN TO MY ORIGINAL NEST

POSTER ABOVE IS PARTLY TRUE FOR ME AS I KNOW THAT I CAN BECOME AIR BORN IN MY MIND BY READING A BOOK OR WRITING A NEW SONG.  RECENTLY , I WAS INSPIRED TO WRITE A NEW ONE AS I GRIEVED FOR THE LOSS OF MY ABILITY TO BE PHYSICALLY CLOSE TO MY ONTARIO DEAR ONES. BUT MY TRUST IS LESS ON MY OWN ABILITIES THAN BECAUSE OF THE ONE WHO TRULY IS ‘THE WIND BENEATH MY WINGS’ . MY FAITH THAT GOD IS IN CONTROL DESPITE MUCH IN THE WORLD THAT TELLS US THE OPPOSITE GIVES ME PEACE AND HELPS ME FIND MY VOICE .  AND I CAN SING AGAIN.

SOMETIMES ‘IN ORDER TO SEE BIRDS, IT IS NECESSARY TO BECOME PART OF THE SILENCE’.(Robert Lynd)  I CAN RELATE TO THIS TOO BECAUSE I CAN ONLY WRITE MY MUSIC IF THERE IS DEEP QUIET IN THE HOUSE.  I NEED TO HEAR MY HEART AND LISTEN TO THE WHISPER IN MY SOUL THAT HELPS ME WRITE. AND I KNOW WHEN IT’S RIGHT. I AM LIFTED UP OUT OF MY OWN REVERIE AND MY VOICE CAN SOAR. 

I ONCE HEARD THAT NO ONE IS FREE. EVEN THE BIRDS ARE CHAINED TO THE SKY.  AND THIS IS GOOD TO REMEMBER . EVEN WHEN THINGS IN OUR WORLD(S) BECOME MORE LAX AND LESS CONTROLLED THERE WILL ALWAYS BE LIMITATIONS. SO LET US LEARN TO LIVE WITHIN THE PARAMETERS NOT FEELING TRAPPED BUT WITH SPIRITS THAT CAN REACH NEW HEIGHTS NEVER IMAGINED BEFORE!
