french kissin'

And although my eyes were open
They might have just as well been closed

às vezes, bastam-me, têm que me bastar, uns segundos de conversa com as árvores, um olhar que pousa brevemente nos efeitos de luz na ramagem, ou então o odor do orvalho que se entrega aos primeiros raios de sol. como hoje de manhã, num pequeno oásis rodeado de grandes avenidas e ruídos de cidade.
às vezes, tenho mesmo que regressar a essa permanente memória. se algum dia precisar de deus, ele vai chamar-se natureza.

Girl gets touched by God while singing

(para os mais distraídos, é a partir de 3:30)

do descritivo no youtube:
Amber (me) singing "My Redeemer Lives" and gets touched by God and gets emotional. I sing all the time in my room and thought of this song due to Easter coming. It is a great Easter song to represent Jesus' Resurrection. I have had alot going on in my life within the past year and I try to keep my faith no matter what and focus on my personal relationship with God. Sometimes I feel as though I lose myself with God. It's kinda like when you lose your mother in a store and then you find her again. I'm glad to know that even though I may get lost my father is waiting for me to find him. I want to wish everyone a Happy Easter!!!! God loves you =)

emancipate yourselves from mental slavery

Dylan: Carelessness. I lost my one true love. I started drinking. I wind up in Phoenix. I get a job as a Chinaman. I start working in a dime store, and move in with a thirteen-year-old girl. Then this big Mexican lady from Philadelphia comes in and burns the house down. I go down to Dallas. I get a job as a ‘before’ in a Charles Atlas ‘before and after’ ad. I move in with a delivery boy who can cook fantastic chili and hot dogs. Then this thirteen-year-old girl from Phoenix comes and burns the house down. The next thing I know I’m in Omaha. It’s so cold there, by this time I’m robbing my own bicycles and frying my own fish. I move in with a high school teacher who also does a little plumbing on the side, who ain’t much to look at, but who’s built a special kind of refrigerator that can turn newspaper unto lettuce. Everything’s going good until that delivery boy shows up and tries to knife me. Needless to say, he burned the house down, and I hit the road. The first guy that picked me up asked me if I wanted to be a star. What could I say?

Hentoff: And that’s how you became a rock-and-roll singer?
Dylan: No, that’s how I got tuberculosis.

Phil Ochs - Here's to the State of Richard Nixon

[no quintal da casa branca]

Hello, Facebook! I finally got my very own page. I hope you’ll think of this as a place where we can have real conversations about the most important issues facing our country – a place where you can hear directly from me, and share your own thoughts and stories. (You can expect some just-for-fun stuff, too.)I’m kicking it off by inviting you to take a walk with me in my backyard – something I try to do at the end of the day before I head in for dinner. I say this often, but that’s because it’s always at the front of my mind: We’ve got to preserve this beautiful planet of ours for our kids and grandkids. And that means taking serious steps to address climate change once and for all. Now, we've made a lot of progress to cut carbon pollution here at home, and we're leading the world to take action as well. But we’ve got to do more. In a few weeks, I’m heading to Paris to meet with world leaders about a global agreement to meet this challenge.I hope you'll join me in speaking out on climate change and educating your friends about why this issue is so important. At a time when nearly three in four adults online use Facebook, this feels like a great place to do it. Share your thoughts in the comments, and pass this message on to folks you think need to see it.If we're all in this together, I'm confident we can solve this and do right by future generations.

Very little in the world that is interesting
happens without risk, movement and wonder.

Bob Dylan - Most Likely You Go Your Way [1966, Mark Ronson 2007]

You say you disturb me
And you don’t deserve me
But you know sometimes you lie
You say you’re shakin’
And you’re always achin’
But you know how hard you try
Sometimes it gets so hard to care
It can’t be this way ev’rywhere
And I’m gonna let you pass
Yes, and I’ll go last
