I'm going to be posting blogs that relate to the themes of love, better health, and happiness. I'll share my opinions, and write about subjects pertaining to those topics. Enjoy!
WELL,THIS IS MY FINAL BLOG! I HAD A FUN TIME WRITING ABOUT THINGS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO OUR DAILY GOOD HEALTH, HAPPINESS, AND WHAT BRINGS US LOVE. I BELIEVE WE SHOULD ALL REFLECT ON OWN OUR STATE OF BEING...AND KEEP GROWING AS INDIVIDUALS BOTH PHYSICALLY AND SPIRITUALLY. THIS WAS A FUN ASSIGNMENT... ;)
For this blog I wanted to write about my birth month: May. I was born on May 7, and I absolutely love May. It's the heart of Spring, and it reminds me of beautiful flowers, fresh air, birds chirping, and greenery. There are many songs and holidays dedicated to May. Here are some more fun facts about this wonderful month:
According to the early Roman calendar, May was the third month. Later, the ancient Romans used january 1 for the beginning of their year, and May became the fifth month. May has always had 31 days. Several stories are passed around to show how the month of May was named. The most widely accepted explanation is that it was named for Maia, the Roman goddess of spring and growth. Her name related to a Latin word that means increase or growth.
May is one of the most beautiful months of the year in the North Temperate Zone. Usually the snow and ice are gone and the hot temperatures haven't arrived. The first garden begins to sprout in May. The wild flowers are blooming, and the trees and grasses have turned green. Wild flowers that bloom in different parts of America are the forsythia, dogwood, violets, and jack-in-the-box. Many birds have built their nests, and mother birds are sitting on the eggs, which will soon hatch.
"May May Come and Bring Me Flowers, After all those April Showers." -Me ;)
Do you ever close your eyes and think of being somewhere far away? Maybe on a deserted tropical island, surrounded by aqua water and palm trees. Or on top of a snowny mountain in a cozy cabin. Everyone of us has a certain place that we imagine when we want to relax. I personally like to picture myself on a tropical island, surrounded by beach and palm trees. I would spend the whole day swimming in the clear waters, then relax in a hammock. Ahhhh.... Anyways, it's very important for all of us to have relaxation in our lives. Even mental relaxation helps, especially to relax from stress and unwanted thoughts. So next time when you feel like getting away, close your eyes and picture that perfect escape and enjoy...until you open your eyes again ;)
I think the perfect beach-fun song is Coco Jambo by Mr. President. So if you ever imagine being on a beach, this song is great!!
Thanksgiving is coming up and it's so important to realize what we have and what we should be thankful for. Most of us underestimate our privileges, luxuries, and day to day life because we are used to such things. If we look at other countries and people who can only wish to have our "simple" lives, we would be more thankful for what we have. Thanksgiving is a great holiday, and I really enjoy it. I enjoy gathering with the family, feasting on delicious foods, and being thankful for all that I have. =)
One of the greatest things we as human beings can ever experience is love. The feeling of loving and being loved. Not only humans, but animals, plants, and nature in general reacts to nurture and love. When we give love, we see happy results. Love is an action, a thought, and a feeling. With love there come many emotions. Those emotions are often times reflected in song. One of my favorite love songs, or love-related songs, is called "To the Moon and Back" by Savage Garden. It's a song about a girl wanting to find love, and wishing that the guy of her dreams will find her. She will "fly to the moon and back" if he'll be her baby. It's a song about desiring to find a true love, in a world where dullness and sorrow surrounds us. The melody in the song is beautiful, and the lyrics are touching. It's very important to have love in your life, whether it's from a lover, family member, friend, or even pet. Love is what makes us happy. Love conquers all. Really, it does.
TO THE MOON AND BACK LYRICS
Shes taking her time making up The reasons To justify all the hurt inside Guess she knows from the smile And the look in their eyes Everyones got a theory about the Bitter one Theyre saying mamma never loved Her much And daddy never keeps in touch Thats why she shies away from Human affection But somewhere in a private place She packs her bags for outer space And now shes waiting for the right Kind of pilot to come And shell say to him Shes saying
Chorus
I would fly to the moon and back if Youll be If youll be my baby Got a ticket for a world where we Belong So would you be my baby
She cant remember a time when she Felt needed If love was red then she was colour Blind All her friends theyve been tried for Treason And crimes that were never defined Shes saying love is like a barren Place And reaching out for human faith is Is like a journey I just dont have a Map for So babys gonna take a dive and Push the shift to overdrive Send a signal that shes hanging All her hopes on the stars What a pleasant dream Just saying
Chorus
Hold on hold on
Mamma never loved her much And daddy never keeps in touch Thats why she shies away from Human affection But somewhere in a private place She packs her bags for outer space And now shes waiting for the right Kind of pilot to come And shell say to him Just saying
I love listening to energetic, good music. Infact, I think that a day without music is like a day without sunshine...kinda boring! I love all types of music genres-pop, rock, R&B, international. I love listening to superstar singers like Michael Jackson, Mariah, Celine, Britney. However, I also enjoy listening to other genres, including Russian and Armenian music. I really enjoy listening to Armenian pop/rock singer Hasmik Karapetyan. She's a popular singer in Armenia, and her songs are wonderful. They have great beats, touching lyrics, and her voice is very soothing and sweet. I really like listening to her music when I get tired of the fast-paced, repetitive beats of today's mainstream radio. She's really cool and I never seem to tire of listening to her music. One of my favorite songs by her is called "Andzrev," which means "rain" in Armenian. It's an awesome club song and her voice compliments the music beautifully. Anyways, music and the world of song is marvelous, in any language. So let's all start singing now!!! (or not. ;) ).
