Cultivating a compassionate attitude! – Silent Songs of Sonsnow

“For many people, the only tangible value is money. And of course money has its place, but the value of cultivating a compassionate attitude is much more effective. When we only pay attention to material values, there’s little room for concern for others, or for mutual regard.”

His Holiness the great 14th Dalai Lama

En medio de la vida, despiertos o somnolientos – Santiago Galicia Rojon Serrallonga

santiagogaliciarojonserrallonga

Estamos en medio de la vida y del mundo, despiertos o somnolientos y dormidos, entre suspiros, realidades y sueños, y, a veces, aunque creamos saberlo, preguntamos en silencio de dónde venimos, quiénes somos, qué hacemos y cuál es el destino del viaje y del ser. Quienes no lo hacen, indudablemente ya son espectadores y se conforman con poseer los boletos y ocupar las butacas de la comedia burda y grotesca que ĺes ofrecen los dueños de la carpa y los titiriteros.

Flamenco – yaskhan

The twilight moon pins blossoms on my hair 
My tasseled dress ignites red along star-shine’s gloam
i tap my feet to the canticle gliding my arms and hips 
clinging to each refrain, my senses pirouette to the castanets 
twirling a flamenco trance,a blend of light and fire.. fluid , raw roaming wild.. drifting 
in the vibrant sensations of the cante devouring my ears, 
tambourines pulse a pageant of fusion 
I whirl on a tempo of blazing toque 
a swirl of skirts ignites luscious jigging 
Fandango brings in the dawn on a burst of flamenco sighs…

उम्मीदें / Expectations – Kaushal Kishore

 

खुशियाँ आज भी 

हमें पहले जैसा ही 

सुकून देती हैं, 

बात बस इतनी है अब 

कि उन खुशियों से हमारी 

उम्मीदें बड़ी हो गई हैं…

🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀

Happiness even today 

gives us the same 

comfort as before, 

it’s just that from it,

our expectations have 

grown larger over time…

…No one thinks the Court will agree that Trump is immune from prosecution, which continues to be an absurd idea, rejected by every judge who has considered it. But they don’t need to. Trump’s strategy has never been to argue his innocence in court, because the evidence clearly says he’s guilty. Instead, he hopes to delay, get reelected, and then tell his Justice Department to withdraw from the case. Even if there is a verdict against him in November or December, he can appeal. And if the Justice Department refuses to fight the appeal, the case dies.

Wednesday, the Supreme Court signed on to Trump’s strategy. It did this because it is even more corrupt and partisan than I had previously suspected…
