Good Day by Nina Simone

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.

Mellow fruitfulness

this is gorgeous, so very poetic thank you very much !!

I love the line waking in the morning, wandering the green hills in the faint glimmer of dawn; vanished in the full day to more welcoming shadows. and second son of myth. and skin paper-thin and pale, near translucent with a thousand dark days.. Okay, I love all of it!
