Take a break from gloom for something beautiful.

[Brent]

Sometimes it is important to remember that for all the evil in the world there is a counter-balance of good and beautiful things.

After watching the first vid I felt compelled. I love the piano in this vid Billy Powell kicked ass RIP. Sad to see so many members of Skynyrd dying off.

We're trying again for a lake that's just N of here, never been there because it's hard to get to. We tried yesterday but the mudholes were just too deep, got high centred and nearly tore the running boards off the truck. But I found another route on google earth and if we make it in with the kayaks I'll post pics.

Hey Ken, happy Father's day to you.

Here's another version of the song. Sometimes, I'll look at the scars on my hands and think about starting a family, just because of this song. Great song.

Cheers, to you.

“Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.

As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant, they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit.

If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love, for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is perennial as the grass.

Take kindly to the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul.

With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.

Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.”

-Max Ehrmann c.1920
