O Shenandoah! Viva's Song
"Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm: for love is strong as death; jealousy is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are coals of fire, which hath a most vehement flame." -- Song of Solomon 8:6
I heard your voice through the trees, in the wind, on a breeze, caught it and brought it to my heart.
A hint of heaven
On this rutted path,
Now to the world

"It is quite interesting that the typical toast in Judaism is - L�Chaim. Have you ever thought about the actual word L�Chaim�meaning �to life�? Notice that this toast doesn�t say, �To a good life.� It just says to life. Why is that? I believe that we need to celebrate life as it is�the wonderful myriad of ups and downs. If we take ourselves too seriously, if we don�t really take the chance to smell the roses, then the journey itself may be missed...." -- Josh Gamson, Director of Education, Congregation of Reformed Judaism |
Where the heck am I? -- Whisk me away
