My friend Tiffany!

Tuesday, May 3, 2011 7:48PM

I tell you, it is not so unusual to see a woman playing harmonica these days. What is unusual is to find a woman who loves Marion Walter Jacobs as much as I do!
Here is Tiffany Harp playing Marion "Little Walter" Jacobs "Don't Need No Horse" to amazing perfection including time slips and stops.
I Love You Tiffany!

Friendship

Thursday, Nov 25, 2010 6:49AM

Those truly linked don't need correspondence.
When they meet again after many years apart,
Their friendship is as true as ever.

In the distant past, there was once a young and wealthy statesman who was on a diplomatic mission. Pausing by a river at night, he heard the haunting sounds of a lute. A passionate musician himself, he took up his own lute and eventually found a goatherd sitting on an old ruin. In those days , an aristocrat would not associate with a commoner, but the the two men struck up a friendship through their music. Their playing was as smooth and natural as flowing water.
Once a year, the ambassador and the goatherd would renew their friendship. Though they had the chance to play their music with others during the rest of the year, each man declared he had found his true counterpart.
The ambassador tried for many years to lift the goatherd out of his poverty, but his friend steadfastly refused. He did not want to pollute their friendship with money.
Years later, when the ambassador was grey haired, he went to the appointed spot, but his friend was not there. He tried to play alone, but his melody was forlorn. Finally someone came to tell him his friend had starved to death in a recent famine. This news made the ambassador despondent. He was caught in the irony of knowing he had the money to save his friend, and yet he understood the man's values as well. In sorrow, the ambassador broke his lute. "With my friend gone from the world, who will I play my music for?"
True friendship is a rare harmony.

--Deng Ming Dao
from 365 Tao p.310

inner peace

Friday, Jul 3, 2009 5:47AM

"Every day, think as you wake up, today I am fortunate to be alive, I have a precious human life, I am not going to waste it. I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart out to others; to achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all beings. I am going to have kind thoughts towards others, I am not going to get angry or think badly about others. I am going to benefit others as much as I can."
- The Dalai Lama

I chat once in a while. I do a lot in Facebook now, easier for me to get information out about my music. Facebook has a wider reach. I still love AnD and I always will!
