Creating wonderful art with nature is a masterpiece for the eyes to admire. It looks so good, would you eat it?
A LITTLE BIT OF HISTORY:
Filippo Tommaso Marinetti was the first artist in the modern era to think of the preparation and consumption of food as art.
The avant-garde Futurist movement, formed by Marinetti and other artists in Milan in 1909, embraced the industrial age and all things mechanicalâfrom automobiles and planes to manufacturing methods and city planning. They thought cooking and dining, so central to everyoneâs day-to-day lives, should also be central to their farsighted, far-out ideas.
Looking at beautiful pictures is an incentive to our brain neurons to produce dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, and endorphins to makes us feel good, better, happy, up-beat. Also reading few encouraging lines, and peaceful notes of love, is good enough to activate these hormones and neurotransmitters to make us go stronger and more hopeful through out our day. So here are some for today!
When you love, you don’t abandon âŠever!
âThe sun does not abandon the moon to darkness.â â Brian A. McBride,Â
“But I love your feet, only because they walked upon the earth and upon the wind and upon the waters, until they found me” — Pablo Neruda
âThe heart is a the thousand-stringed instrument that can only be tuned with Love.â—Hafiz
âLove is anterior to life, posterior to death, initial of creation, and the exponent of breath.â—Emily Dickinson
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.
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 didnât put it together correctly. She was the director of her own concert, and this was a flaw of hers
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.
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.
I leave you with the “Iris Keeper Of The Rainbow”, for a peaceful night, a hopeful morning (depending where you are in the world) and fantastic weekend!
