Follow the Sun

Here is one of the songs in my newest yoga playlist. Lots of great feedback on this playlist so far this week! Below is "Follow the Sun" by Xavier Rudd. Enjoy, friends. Link to listen. Follow, follow the sunand which way the wind blowswhen this day is done.Breath, breath in the air. Set your intentions.Dream with care.Tomorrow is a new day for everyone,Brand new moon, brand new sun.So follow, follow the sun,the direction of the bird,the direction of love.Breath, breath in the air,cherish this moment,cherish this breath. Tomorrow is a new day for everyone,brand new moon, brand new sun.When you feel life coming down on you,like a heavy weight.When you feel this crazy society,adding to the strain.Take a stroll to the nearest watersand remember your place.Many moons have risen and fallen long, long before youve came.So which way is the wind blowin',and what does your heart say?So follow, follow the sun,and which way the wind blowswhen this day is done...

It's a Date

Yesterday we went to see The Palm Beach Opera

perform "La Traviata" at the Kravis Center. I got tickets for

Justin for Christmas... The main character gets Tuberculosis

(which is what the hubbie works with) so he of course

was interested!

If you haven't gone before, I highly recommend it.

The opera took me back to a simpler time.

A time when orchestras and live singing and

acting were the greatest and most

unbelievable of things. 

A time when dressing up for a date was the best thing ever.

Opera equals pure joy in my book.

Ear Candy :: Jaymay

I found this awesome singer via Spotify. This caught my eye because I sometimes call my husband "Jmay" as a nickname. Anywho Jaymay is not the artist's real name. She is Jamie Kristine See, a New York artist. This song "Blue Skies" is kind of sad, but it is also beautiful. Perfect for a cloudy fall day I believe!! Enjoy.

Ear Candy :: Muse

I am love love loving Muse's newest single, Madness, from their soon to be released album, The 2nd Law! It's sexy. It's mysterious. It's pure awesomeness. After 20 hours of driving over the past few days, we heard this song pop on the radio here and there, and I am just in love with the madness ;)

SONG OF THE DAY...

THE WAY I AM ... BY INGRID MICHAELSON
If you were falling, then I would catch you
You need a light, I'd find a match
'Cause I love the way you say good morning
And you take me the way I am

If you are chilly, here take my sweater
Your head is aching, I'll make it better
'Cause I love the way you call me, baby
And you take me the way I am

I'd buy you Rogaine when you start losing all your hair
Sew on patches to all you tear
'Cause I love you more than I could ever promise
And you take me the way I am
You take me the way I am, you take me the way I am

NEEDTOBREATHE

I have been going nutso over this amazing band... NEEDTOBREATHE! They really do amaze me - their entire album is a true work of art. I can sincerely say I LOVE every song off "The Outsiders" album. Some may consider it Christian Rock - that is fine if that what it is - I just consider it AWESOME and SOULFUL... It is truly a rare occurrence when I can listen to a band's album over and over without getting over it quickly!! I cannot wait to see them live!

Here is "Something Beautiful"...

In a day dream, I couldn't live like this 
I wouldn't stop until I found something beautiful 
When I wake up, and all i want i have 
You know its still not what i need something beautiful
