RETRO STUFF

Yes, I listen to everything from hip hop, rap, baroque,country and Miles but have a weakness for these early now bottom dollar sounds and often have it on while painting. Maybe because when I was growing up, life really looked liked this? All You Tube Links:

Let us pray in our hearts for a League of Souls and a United World. Though we may seem divided by race, creed, color, class, and political prejudices, still, as children of the one God we are able in our souls to feel brotherhood and world unity. May we work for the creation of a United World in which every nation will be a useful part, guided by God through man's enlightened conscience. In our hearts we can all learn to be free from hate and selfishness. Let us pray for harmony among the nations, that they march hand in hand through the gate of a fair new civilization.Paramahansa Yogananda from Metaphysical Meditations
