What makes a good conversation?

Posted on Sep 22nd, 2009 by mum's  the word : Cosmic Explorer mum's the word
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for September 22, 2009:

A loving connection (((((( )))))) from all around this Universe of ours.  Here is a great link with wonderful music, please click here.  For some reason or rather it does not  high-light up on the front page of Gaia's Q&R - then click onto 'mums the word' and it will lead you to a link that is hi-lighted that you can do so.  I don't know why it doesn't come up as such on the "home page," but I have discovered that if you click on 'mum's the word' it will lead you to my blog where the link can be opened up......sorry for the inconvenience it put you through.

"V" and Blessed offerings be with you.

Hey, Rudyan….thank you sharing….I'm glad to hear that the link came up for you.
This song is a very old 'folk lore tune' of loving all around, and was presented to me one wonderful evening of a movie night with popcorn in hand, to watch the 'newest hit movie (at the time) called, “O Brother Where Art Thou” which George Clooney, (the hunk) was staring in….lol.

Many a tune was sung in this movie which I reflected to as growing up in this place called, Dobie Ontario.  I basically was raised around 'folk lore music' when I was in my one room school of education, and the choir I was in, sang everything from “Oh M' Darlin Clemintine' to Home On The Range.” Not everyone went to school at that point in time, and some were found living in shacks in the hills, usually picking mushrooms, berries, and roots that could only be found high in them there rocky terrains, and in the deepest of a forest, and were never allowed to participate in the rest of town folk activities, such as school, or country street dances.
Basically, it was where we lived that we connected with at the time.  Being 12 from Kirkland Lake, was where it was at, but living in them there hills of Dobie, was a stick in the mud of everything in between.

My Mother and my sisters would go in the hills to pick all that Mother Earth had to present on our table for food, and was at these critical times of living off the land that we discovered others living in the hills that no one ever knew about in town.
There was a girl, not any older that my sister who was 10, that was hanging clothes on the line, and saw us in behind her house (forest and woods with no boundaries) picking wild mushrooms, and she came prancing over as if she had just seen Santa Clause, and asked us who we were, and just as fast as a grass-hopper prances, her mother came out 'a yell'n…”get back here girl and never mind no others….just do as your told, before i whipper snap ya'.”  Swear t' God, and I never forgot it to this day.

Got a bit on the carried away side of thing's, didn't I..he-hee, but never the less, this song has been a big part of my life, and just wanted to share what “conversation” means to me.

….giggles, Gabby1.  You  are such a sweet heart.  I love this song, and am a huge Beatles fan…..saw “Across The Universe” 3 times, and brings a tear to my eye each time I watch it.  Thank you, and you can double park at my place any time:-))
Thank you Laurie for letting me know about the link, I wonder what happened there…hmmmm.  Always a pleasure to see you…hugs to both.

It certainly was, Nicole.  I loved it's passion of presenting a life of a people, and their style of circumstantial circumstances.  It's ending of sweet gathering was most divine,…kinda corny, but never the less sweet:)
So glad you dropped by.

Loving hugs,
Rita
