Music

Music, now that brings music to my ears, joke sorry, it is always in your life from the moment you are born and you're parents sing you a lullaby to put you to sleep, teenager years talking with your friends about your favorite singer or group, football games when everyone sings to help their team on, in the shower when you think no one can hear you, in church you at some point sing, in almost every shop you hear music from a radio over the loudspeakers, everywhere and even at the time you die there's a bugaler or bagpipes playing, so as you can see music is a part of our life. As I grew up in the 60's it played a great part in my life, I loved R&R and was a real teddy boy although I didn't have the hair for it I was a great dancer and eventually became a dj in my spare time, not getting paid but just playing the records that I wanted to hear and watching the people dancing that was enough payment for me. Every decade a new form of music comes out, from Soul, R&B,Country, R&R, Punk, Pop music, Glam, opera, everywhere and every year there is something new on the music scene and of course with music comes different clothes and hair styles. Even during wars there was music for example Vera Lynn"We'll meet again"blasting out from the radio and also on the enemies side, it helped relieve the fear of dying on the front and reminded you of home. You play the radio while you're in the car on a long journey to keep you from falling asleep while driving, you sing along with songs that you remember even if you don't have a great voice it makes you happy, it's on tv, everywhere, you can't get away from music. Of course people made millions if they became popular but what difference does that make as long as you are content to listen to them. There are some song's that will never go out of fashion, hits which will remain hits for ever I'm sure you know of at least one song that you know almost all the words to and you sing along quietly to yourself. If there is one constant thing in our lives which takes our mind off the bad things that are happening all around us and that's music. I'm sure no matter what age you are, country your from, religion you are, language you speak there is always music and I for one am happy about it, music brings us together as for instance at concerts where there are thousands listening and dancing to one of their favorite singers or groups, that's why I'm writing about it, it's like the Sun always there and I hope it always will be, what do you think?

Luck

Luck, do you believe in it, like finding a four leaf clover, a bird shiting on you, is that going to bring you luck or do you just make your own luck? Some people have so called luck by winning the lottery, winning on online gambling or winning on the stock market, are these all attributed to luck, good question but if you think about it everything that you bet on is controlled by a computer or little balls spinning around in a plastic globe, you win, is that really luck? How do you define what luck really is, I'm not sure but I think you make your own luck. For instance I made my own luck by going to a cafe and meeting my wife who worked there, I made my own luck during the war in Croatia by doing what I had been taught and stayed alive, my wife and I were lucky enough to have three children when there are other married people who can't have children, are those examples of luck or destiny? In a way you could say that it was my destiny to get married not just luck, which is it ...

T+L

Well at long last it seems that there may be a break in our heatwave, last night after the temperature hitting a huge 40 degrees it started to thunder and lightning but did the heavens open for rain to fall, no only a few spots, I could probably drink more water than fell from the sky, at least it's a little cooler 19 and set to rise to a reasonable 35 degrees which is a bit more bearable. It's Sunday the end of the weekend and again it seems that my wife and I will be on our own, my youngest daughter and her fiance are going here and there to visit his family and I'm not sure if my eldest daughter will be here so it's going to be a weird Sunday but peaceful. It's going well for Ukraine from looking at all the media as Ukraine is still taking over more of russia and blowing up bridges so the idiot can't resupply his troops and he is also bombing his own country with missiles, what a shame the ordinary people who so called voted for the puppet master are having t...

Terrible

Isn't it just terrible to see once again ordinary people being targeted by bombs and mortars and being once again driven from their homes. The orders obviously coming from the top which of course means non other than the war monger himself, Putin and the Ukrainians can't do a thing to stop it except helping with the evacuation of the elderly and sick from the border towns with Russia. It is a familiar site for me after witnessing it myself here in Croatia in 1991, so I know how those people feel being driven from their homes and normal lives not knowing wheater they will return or not by a superior force intent on carrying out their orders by a lunatic dictator. Here in Croatia after so many years people are back in their homes, rebuilt and the villages, towns and cities are back to normal, Croatia has come back from the brink of destruction to become a stronger and better country, all because of the heart and will of the people. There is a huge question mark over wheater the U...
