Unconditional Wavelength: February 2012

About Me

What can I say about myself? I am an ordinary, down-to-earth person who occasionally takes a side-trip down the road to unconventionality. My normalness comes to pass when I’m working my day job. I am obedient, thorough and friendly. My silly self comes to pass when I am within the bosom of my family and friends—who know me well and love me anyway. But it is my serious and oft times eccentric self who surfaces when I am writing. When I take this approach to life I find myself looking at everything with an exploratory eye. I slow down my pace a bit and I develop a keen sense awareness. I become intelligent. I look up, down and all around—and I listen. I may even howl at the moon.

Lana Del Rey

Today I listened to a CD my husband bought by artist Lana Del Rey, Born To Die. It is so beautiful and so original. Lana's voice is hypnotic. Her lyrics are intelligent and poetic. She is an astoundingly talented young woman. I would recommend this CD to anyone who likes jazz, soul and hiphop.

My Hope

I have always felt strongly about the nature of my fellow man; part of me despises who we are and what we may become; how we are so capable of blindly leading our race toward destruction, rarely thinking about the consequences of our own actions. But with all my heart I love the good-natured soul among us who cares deeply; the soul who reaches passed the sanction of his own, to embrace and comfort those who are alien to him. I hold dear the prospect that it is this loving soul who will preserve our life on this planet and make peace among men.
