My Song - Rabindranath Tagore

My Song

This song of mine
Will wind its music around you
Like the fond arms of love

This song of mine
Will touch your lips
Like a kiss of blessing

When you are alone
It will sit by your side
And whisper in your ears

When you are in a crowd
It will protect you
With it’s strength

My song will be
Like a pair of wings to your dreams
It will fly your heart
To the edge of the unknown

It will be like a faithful star
In the dark of night

My song will sit
In the depths of your soul

And will cary you
Into the heart of things
And when my voice is silent
My song will speak
In your loving heart

I awoke to this on my iPod this morning and it spoke to me of purpose, when we carry our song in our hearts, the world conspires to help us to realise it - but first we have to uncover the song.

Warmth & Love,

Nick.

The Moment I Cease to Hate

“At certain moments, always unforseen, I become happy

I look at the strangers near as if I had known them all my life

Everything fills me with affection

It may be an hour before the mood passes, but lately

I seem to understand that I enter upon it .... the moment I cease to hate”

William Butler Yeats

Seth Godin

It’s so hard to move away from video and especially from the sensational content at TED.com, when you resonate with it so strongly.

Seth Godin’s book Tribes is also available as an audio book from iTunes. Also worthy of note is an outstanding book called The Slight Edge - about the incremental change that’s required to first lead yourself,from where you are to where you want to be. If you would like more details shoot me an e-mail via the ‘Say Hi’ page and I’ll remember & locate the author and other details.

Protect your Dreams

A beautiful reminder, from a great film, to be diligent and attentive with our choice of words, especially concerning our dreams and the dreams of others (especially children).






‘Faith is the song that the blackbird sings before the dawn.’
Protect Your Dreams & Joy!

Classical music with shining eyes

In the previously mentioned interview with Dave Stringer, Dave talks about music being a very essential aspect of our being human, and how it increases our ability to cooperate and think together. This presentation by Benjamin Zander, conductor of the Boston Philharmonic, and a speaker on leadership, testifies to this and really has to be seen to be fully appreciated.
