Vouleez vous coucher avec moi
It took me until I was well into my 30's before I realized that really wasn't the name of that song!!
Imagine my surprise when I learned that Patti Labelle
really named it "Lady Marmalade".
We're on our way...Saratoga's Jazz Fest to see Patti belt out that classic one again! Wondering what other musicians are playing?? Click the link. :)
Ya know, There have been times when the internet has been able to bridge gaps in time and space, like no other venue. To reach across the miles, giving the riders of this information highway a rare glimpse of real understanding of the person on the other end of that road. Without this electrical vehicle, some paths between people might not otherwise occur, leaving a wide open vacuum between one's corner of the universe that never touches the other's corner.
Recently, I had a very brief exchange with someone, whom, though I've never met face-to-face, have had hundreds of bytes with. Very recently this gentleman had sent me the below presentation.
The White Deer Prophesy is a message of hope and of Creator's love, of redemption and potentiality of peace, cooperation and responsibility. It is often said that we are our own worst enemy, but on the whole we disclaim responsibility to control our actions. Scientists tell us the seas and oceans are dying. We can clearly see the effects of global warming and of the destruction of the ecosystem that sustains life on this planet. We sit upon stockpiles of weapons of mass destruction, enough to kill the population of the earth many times over, and attempt to "shock and awe" each other with heartless displays of violence to get our way.
We call upon God to bless our acts of terror and claim to have Him on our side, and so does the "enemy," whomever they may at the moment be. We are so foolish as to think that happiness can be achieved by owning things, consuming things and destroying things, that insensitivity is strength and greed is a positive motivator. We have the capability to abolish poverty, to put an end to war and create a true heaven on earth, but still we pursue the creation of the opposite.
We Lenape believe that the white deer, as well as the white buffalo, have been sent to us as a "wake up call," a final reminder to "do the right thing" and "get our act together." Now, even the existence of the white deer is threatened by the greed of developers. If we sit by and do nothing, they will be destroyed. If we rally to save them, we begin the process of rallying to save ourselves and all our relations and to preserve a world to pass on to future generations.
