It Matters

there's is a lot that is wrong and a lot to be done. It won't happen if we don't do it. learn from the past.don't repeat mistakes.the world is the same anywhere you go. Differences among people are exaggerated insignificant quirks twisted by those who want to remain in power. we are all more alike than different


lyric

in the time that's left to me ,let me touch what's left to feel
in the time that's left to me, through the dim light let me see
I never needed to travel the globe cause the world always came to me

cause the sun,the moon, the rain the snow are constant everywhere
people laugh, people cry,people hope and people fear
nothing's different from here to there
it's all the same,nothing to fear

when will we learn that we have the power to turn dark into light
to feed the hungry and cloth the cold
with no damage to our body or danger to our soul

our lives are short but our legacy is long
the past must be our guide through the night to the dawn
so we can touch what must be touched
so we can see what must be seen
and not stay locked alone in ourselves for our tiny eternity

make a difference

Dear friends,
not all people celebrate Christmas, but all people can still be kind and considerate. All religions should absolutely preach peace, understanding and caring!
I want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and peace and quiet in the world.

Desire for a Merry Christmas 
The days have come to our world
when all folks should be happy
The bells are ringing from early morning
and the sound is heard far away
and all hatred is gone even in the poor
soldiers who are at war

 Chorus
The bells are heard all over the globe
and every eye shows the sign
that something has occured - the world has become new

In my country the winter has arrived
and lots of snow has fallen down
then lights from candels are seen in distant shores
it’s a sign for all that it’s peace
and all soldiers are burying the guns that they have and go
back to their wifes and kids

 Chorus
The bells are heard all over the globe
and every eye shows the sign
that something has occured - the world has become new

Desire for a Merry Christmas

Advent:

In the Protestant church, it commemorates the entry of Jesus into Jerusalem in particular. 2nd Advent: It serves as preparation for the return of Christ. 3rd Advent: It commemorates John the Baptist. 4th Advent: In the Catholic Church in particular, the focus here is on Mary, the Mother of God.

Like all Sundays in Advent, the 2nd Advent is named after the opening hymn of the Holy Mass: Populus Sion. The redemptive aspect of God takes center stage on the second Sunday of Advent. On this day, Christians particularly commemorate the prophesied redemption from all earthly suffering through Jesus' sacrificial death on the cross.

Der dritte Sonntag: Gaudete! – Freut Euch!
Der dritte Sonntag im Advent unterscheidet sich schon farblich von den anderen. Statt Violett kann der Priester an diesem Tag die liturgische Farbe Rosa als aufgehelltes Violett tragen. Einige Menschen haben an ihrem Adventskranz auch für den 3. Advent eine rosa Kerze. Dieser Brauch ist vor allem in Irland und England beliebt. Vielen ist dieser Sonntag auch unter dem Namen "Gaudete" (lateinisch "Freut Euch!") bekannt. Das kommt aus dem Eingangsgesang, der es in sich hat: "Gaudete in Domino semper!" – " Freut euch im Herrn allezeit!" Dieser Vers aus dem Philipperbrief sagt: Der Herr ist nahe, es dauert nicht mehr lange. Der Imperativ verstärkt die Intention.

Am vergangenen zweiten Sonntag im Advent ging es umdie harsche Umkehrpredigt des Johannes. Heute erfahren die Gläubigen, wie Jesus über ihn denkt. Im Evangelium nach Matthäus (Mt 1t, 2-11) geht es an diesem Tag noch einmal um Johannes den Täufer, der die Menschen auf die Ankunft des Messias vorbereiten soll. Meist wird es so verstanden, dass Johannes im Gefängnis Zweifel ander Messianität Jesu kommen. Entspricht Jesus nicht seinen Erwartungen, ist er ihm zu zurückhaltend? Möglich ist aber auch die um-gekehrte Sicht: Johannes hört vom Auftreten Jesu und fragt sich, ob er vielleicht „der Kommende“ ist.

The third Sunday: Gaudete! - Rejoice!
The third Sunday in Advent differs from the others in terms of color. Instead of violet, the priest can wear the liturgical color pink as a brightened violet on this day. Some people also have a pink candle on their Advent wreath for the third Sunday of Advent. This custom is particularly popular in Ireland and England. Many people also know this Sunday by the name "Gaudete" (Latin for "Rejoice!"). This comes from the opening hymn, which has it all: "Gaudete in Domino semper!" - " Rejoice in the Lord always!" This verse from Philippians says: The Lord is near, it won't be long now. The imperative reinforces the intention.

Last second Sunday in Advent was about John's harsh sermon on repentance. Today, believers learn what Jesus thinks about him. On this day, the Gospel according to Matthew (Mt 1t, 2-11) is once again about John the Baptist, who is supposed to prepare people for the arrival of the Messiah. It is usually understood that John has doubts about the Messiahship of Jesus while in prison. Does Jesus not meet his expectations, is he too reserved? However, the opposite view is also possible: John hears about Jesus' appearance and wonders whether he is perhaps "the coming one".

3rd Advent

After midnight music. Room lights low, lamp humming, keys breathing. Piano and upright trade small truths while brushed drums keep the floor moving.

Everything here is space: ghosted snares, little cracks in the tape where the night gets in. It's reflective, gritty, mournful but still standing
