Beautiful Breathtaking Sunset Somewhere in this Wonderful Earth of Ours and a Poem

Crossing the Bar

by Alfred, Lord Tennyson

Sunset and evening star, 
And one clear call for me! 
And may there be no moaning of the bar, 
When I put out to sea, 

But such a tide as moving seems asleep, 
Too full for sound and foam, 
When that which drew from out the boundless deep 
Turns again home.

Twilight and evening bell, 
And after that the dark! 
And may there be no sadness of farewell, 
When I embark; 

For though from out our bourne of Time and Place 
The flood may bear me far, 
I hope to see my Pilot face to face 
When I have crossed the bar.

Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea,


But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the boundless deep
Turns again home.


Twilight and evening bell
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;

For though from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crost the bar.

Beautiful Breathtaking Sunset In This Wonderful Earth Of Us And A Poem

Sunset

Effie Lee Newsome – 1885-1978

Since Poets have told of sunset, 
What is left for me to tell?
I can only say that I saw the day
Press crimson lips to the horizon gray, 
And kiss the earth farewell.

Movie of the Day: “Fathers and Daughters” Get Your Tissues Handy!

FATHERS AND DAUGHTERS

I love watching movies. Drama, love, comedy, science fiction, terror, horror, fantasy, suspense, action, and another genre. The only ones that I do not like are

1. the ones where they show sexual violence against women or children.

2. lots of gun shootings in movies…tsk, tsk, nope…they bore me.

Other than those mentioned above…welcome movies!

If you, like me, love movies and you haven’t watched this one, be careful because there are some spoilers. So, STOP READING RIGHT NOW!

Today’s movie is about a father (Russell Crowe) who loves his daughter (Amanda Seyfried) and fights for her until the end of his life, which was tragic to say the least, and sad.

One of the best pictures I have seen in a long-time. Russell Crowe gives a powerful performance as the writer whose mental illness is brought on by the car crash that killed his wife while they were arguing and he was driving.

This is a wonderful story of interpersonal relations and the ability to help others but not themselves as shown by his adult daughter.

The idea of flashbacks works wonderfully here as we see how this tragedy affected their lives as well as their brother-in-law and sister-in-law who would sue for custody of their niece only until revelations came out about the former.

I haven’t seen Crowe this good in years. He is rather subdued while being objected to mental illness. As a social worker-aspiring psychologist, Seyfried can help others but has difficulty in her own relationships which almost destroys her.

Russell Crowe and Amanda Seyfried in Fathers and Daughters, great performance!

Climb Every Mountain Inspiring Song Shirley Basey Video

CLIMB EVERY MOUNTAIN

climb every mountain music inspiration dra martha castro mexico

I watched Barbra Streisand concert, delightful voice, BUT, Barbara Streisand misunderstood this or decided to change the meaning of the song. She sang a song from the “Sound Of Music”. (My favorite version is with one of my best-loved singers of all times: Dame Shirley Bassey). I have a problem with a part of the lyrics.

climb every mountain music inspiration dra martha castro mexico

I will tell you first a little bit of my musical experience so you know why I dare to criticize (in a constructive way, of course) the lyrics and Barbara Sreisand.

Barbra Streisand lacks that philosophy heart and didn’t put it together correctly. She was the director of her own concert, and this was a flaw of hers

climb every mountain music inspiration dra martha castro mexico

I happen to be a musician. I play the guitar and sing very well, actually. I sang professionally in my youth to pay for my medical career.

climb every mountain music inspiration dra martha castro mexico

I studied music, singing lessons and musical composicion: music and lyrics, in Bellas Artes in Mexico City. So I think I have a very good idea of what I am talking about, but I am always open for a healthy debate and to change my mind if somebody is willing to explain to me why I am wrong in my assertion about this song:

The problem I have with, is highlighted and I will tell you why below the lyrics:

Climb every mountain
Ford every stream
Follow every rainbow
‘Till you find your dream

It should say “reach” your dream, not find your dream. You already need to have had found your dream, this is “know” your dream, then climb every mountain, until you reach it.

And I don’t see any problem with the rhyme. Changing the word find to reach would not affect the tune nor the octaves, but it would make a lot more sense, and it would have more psychological and inspirational impact, in my opinion.

What do you think?

A Beautiful Poem Will Take Your Breath Away

By KatieMiaFrederick

SMiLes I Remember in the Neo-Natal Unit
And the 51 Days Of Our Only Child Ryan Born
on June 4th, 1997, A Couple of Days Before

My 37th Birthday Then

His Life Only Pain
Never A Smile
An Only
Family
Portrait
That Way
At All on
Father’s Day
That Year Anyway the

Folks, the Precious Doctor’s Who
Worked At Shands Hospital in Florida

Often Said if they Had Worked in that
Neo-Natal Unit And Could See All of What
Can And Will Go Wrong with the Human Condition

At Birth, They Would Have Been Terrified to Even Try

to Sire A Child
And Of Course
That’s Just at Birth

Never The Less The Way
They Made it Through the
Day Was Often Dark Humor
Sarcastic Yes like the Dude Who
Was Insisting His Son Be Circumcised

As the Young Doctor Said Oh my God ‘it’
is the Size of A Japanese Soup Noodle As If

That Was the Worst of All that
Parent’s Worries A Child

Who Might

Live or Die
With Part of Nature
Attached or Not Then

SMiLes The Human Condition
Where What is Cherished Most
is Often True Insanity Only

Lending Recognition
Dear Doc That

This Condition is A Far
Cry And Yes Laugh From Anything Really Rational
True Once one Delves Deeper into Stories of Humans…

And that Reminds me too Yes Stumbling into a National
Geographic Documentary on YouTube About Lion’s Mating And
The Crowd Started Jeering About the Size of the ‘Lion’s Package’

Not Even Thinking About the Size of Jaws and Claws And Family

Jewels

Left Dangling
With An Entire
Environment of
Fighting Sharp as Razors
Oh All the Illusory Fears Folks
Drive to

Life

And
Death For Real..:)
