salineaGood Day by Nina Simone
http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=0EF1713150D50EDE
Before I listened to this song, I really thought the Muse version was the original XD
So half of me is feeling guilty about taking such joy in my birthday, on such a day
and half of me is thinking that the best way to give the finger to people who would rule by the use of fear is to not feel daunted, and to celebrate life and all that we are.
But I'm biased.
Maybe it's just that you can't pick up the sadness from the joy, the ugliness from the grace. Everything is mixed. Most times you only see the lines, or the colours, or the shades, and it's all in parcels. Then you step back and you see the nuances taking shapes and new patterns, and it's beautiful.
It's a beautiful world, and I don't plan on giving it up to people who live by hatred, greed and terror.
So I'll take my joy. Sorry.

Hmm. Want a birthday drabble? Any requests?

Your wish is my command. Mist's Child, Regulus gen, 100 words.
Date: 12 September 2006 12:07 am (UTC)Regulus is the mist's child: grey-blue eyes full of dreams; skin paper-thin and pale, near translucent with a thousand dark days.
Regulus is the mist's child: waking in the morning, wandering the green hills in the faint glimmer of dawn; vanished in the full day to more welcoming shadows.
Regulus is the mist's child: a child of grimoires and history books; the half-forgoteen boy, second son of myth.
Regulus is the mist's child: untouchable, intangible, invisible.
Ephemeral.
Mellow fruitfulness
