SING! SING A SONG! PRAYING IS GOOD FOR US ALL!

Sing and act! Sing of the good things, nor bad! Sing and place yourself as a willing partner for better futures! Encourage the fainting! Show them there are a brighter night and a shinier tomorrow!

These were the ending words of my second of this series of three sets of commentaries. And a logic questions arises. How could I sing if I can´t do it even when I am in the shower?

I mentioned before that the chanting of the spirit is the foremost expression of what of melodic sprouts in all of our actions down here on earth.

It is not a matter of mesmerizing the crowds in such an obsessing and psychedelic way as is the usage nowadays. It is not a matter of almost unbelievable athletic performance and mimic shows.

It is love and care in action, day by day. In the smaller things! In the untiring contrasting of what is balanced and real. In the showing and comparing of both sides of the coins of life!



In the insisting of the permanence and the need of survival of the familiar ties as the roots that will nourish the lives of the children of today, up to the time when they will be responsible to transmit the fundamental values of life to their descendants.

It is love and care in action that allows the smiles to flourish even in the midst of the harshest circumstances!
This is what every one of us should always do.

Sing, sing a song! Sing out loud! Sing out strong!
Sing of good things, not bad!
Sing of happy, not sad!

Sing, sing a song!
Make it simple to last your whole life long!
Don't worry that it's not good enough for anyone else to hear!
Just sing, sing a song!

Sing, sing a song! Let the world sing along!
Sing of love there could be!
Sing for you and for me!

Sing, sing a song!
Make it simple to last your whole life long!
Don't worry that it's not good enough for anyone else to hear!
Just sing, sing a song!




This is especially important, if you are just a common person, immersed in the world environment and not fond of spiritual understanding or not a believer.

I have always said that there is ample space for good faith people, even if it is not based on a Christian spiritual foundation. Strong character and personality can carry you over the obstacles even if at the cost of a lot of suffering, stubbornness, stoicisms and even cynicisms, if you do not succumb to the circumstances.

It is just a harder walk. I did experience it myself. There were times when I believed that Christianism was just for the losers and the weaker. But, thankfully, I learnt the lesson of the futility of all my efforts. And I have lived better equipped to confront the maladies of life.

There is such strength in prayer! Not a dispirited one, but that that brings a daily contact and interaction with God. Believe me. Praying is good for us all!

In the good times! Out of gratitude and recognition of His Grace and; Mercy! In the bad times! As a resourceful way to confront the harsh realities and abuses of this world! In the worst times! Because this way, we can depart with peace in our spirit, leaving behind the temporal and the inconsequential!
