Tá an Aimsir Inniú go h-Álainn !!!!

Today the Weather is Lovely!!!!

Thainig mé go luath maidin Inniú
(-I arrived Early this morning) which gave me Time to
Walk to my Favourite place in Spiddal. In the center of Spiddal
there is a crossroads;When and If I have the Time I like to walk to the Sea via the southern road which passes a very attractive Harbour where-on there are Traditional Irish fishing boats called Currachs.I like to walk past the Harbour wall out onto the granite rock formation that jutts out into the Sea.One can really walk way out untill One is surrounded on 3 sides by the Sea.-It is a Lovely Spot to stand and Breath in the Invigorating Sea Air and the View is Gorgeous !!!!

-By the Way:-The road to the north of the crossroads in the center of Spiddal very quickly brings One to the famous Music Pub
'Tigh Hughes'.-It is in 'Tigh Hughes' that the group De Danann began !!!!
-The Waterboys also used to live in Spiddal and recorded their C.D.'Fisherman's Blues'in the area.

As I Travelled to Spiddal this morning
I Reflected about what I could write and talk
about on this Blogg:-and To Be Honest
I Felt just about
everything I could Talk about is
Potentially Controversial.
I am Deliberately Endeavoring
to Avoid Controversy on this Blogg.
Which probebly Explains why it is So Boring!!
(probebly Nobody Reads this Blogg Anyway !!)
-Yet just in case Anybody Does Visit It?

Well It's Origional Purpose was a Platform
to Launch my Music Out into the World !!!!

I probebly should be doing other things
[such as playing and practising on the Piano
and Composing New Music !!!!] - rather than
'Waffling' away on this Blogg! - Up to Now
I have been Blogging on a regular basis.
- I Feel it is Time to Ease Off
and Only Blogg when I have
Anything of Worth to Say !!!!

The Haka the way the Maori say 'Hi' !!!!

On the front page
of Today's Irish Times
there is a photo of players from
New Zealand's World Famous
All Black's Rugby Football Team
doing the Maori 'Haka'before the game
-the Haka looks Scary and Treatening
yet it is just their Cute Quaint Way
of Saying 'Hi'!!!! - at the same time
there is a Message:Treat Us with Respect !!!!


Aon Rud eile a tharla inniu?
(anything else occur Today?)

We had a visit of Muscitions and Dancers
from Korea and a short while ago We were
Sharing Our Various Music Traditions.
One of the Korean Muscitions demonstrated
and Played for Us a Very Old, Very Rare
and Very unusual Korean Instruement
called a Seng-Hwang[or maybe it is spelled? Seng-Hweng?]
We had Our Korean Visiters Up and Trying Out Irish Dancing
One of Our Korean Visiters Sang a Korean Song whilst simultaneously
playing a traditional Korean violin style instruement.
Her Performance was Powerfull with Unexpected Sudden Bursts
of Intense Emotion that caught One out and
Woke One Up with Surprise again and again !!!!

Something Else that should Wake 'Moi' Up
is that it is Wet and Rainy Outside !!
As William Shakespeare declared 400-500 Years ago:
'With Wey Heigh the Wind and the Rain
For It Raineth Everyday'!!!!- and Indeed It Does Often !!!!
Over Here in Ireland We are Used to the Rain
So much So It Actually puts Many of Us in Good Form !!!!
It is Natural It is Familiar It Feels Cozy and Comfertable !!!!
Whereas when the Sun Shines it becomes a cause for Comment
and a Source of Wonder as in 'Wow!- It is Actually Sunny!'
Ireland would be Very Boreing
If it was Sunny All the Time
We would probebly Go 'Nuts'!
- Thank God for Our Blessed
Changeable Weather !!!!
Ireland would Not be Ireland
without Our Plentifull Supply of Rain
and We have So Many Varities and Types of Rain !!!!
The Rain is Beautifull !!!!
The Rain is Wonderfull !!!!

- I have to Dash - If I can I Will Return !!!!

It is Early Yet ....Shure I Might as Well Say a Few Words ..(A Few Words?-That Will Be the Day!!!!)

Today is a Lovely Bright
Sunny Day as I Look Out
the Window at the
Beauty of Galway Bay !!!!

In my previous endeavor/entry/addition to this 'Noble'(-Oh Really??)
Blogg - I Endeavored to dispense with my usual Habit
of Capital Letters in front of practicaly every Word.
Yeah I Acknowlwdge it is a 'Nuts'Way
to attempt to communicate:- I suppose the reoson I do it is because Words
are Important to me:-I Love the Feel of Them !!!!

As for this Blogg ????
-I will try to make it interesting and entertaining to read in future
-Also up to now my habit has been to put a Posting Up at least Once a week
[even when I have very little to Say!]-I Feel that is a Mistake!
- So in Future my Intention is to Blogg
Only when I have Anyhing of Worth to Say !!!!

The Origional Purpose of Setting Up
and Starting this Blogg was as a Platform
to Launch my Music Out into the World !!!!

Wednesday, November 12, 2008

In Brief:- the Story of the past 24 hours:-

Yesterday night after I withdrew from Blogging on the Computer;
I Wandered about the beautifull City of Galway.
- There was a Full Moon in a clear sky
last night and the air was crisp.
Frequently I glanced and gazed up at the Full Moon,and I Thought with a warm friendly Smile of Goodwill to Herself -!!!!:
- Wishing Her Well and saying "God Bless You" !!!!
- There is a Song by an Irish Singer[Cara Dillon]which is titled
"Wherever You are ? - I Wish You Well" and Indeed I Do !!!!
Later on I Repaired the Zip on my much beloved green hiking jackette[-all things considered a 'touch and go'achievement as I tranfered the attachement part of a Zip from an Old unused item of clothing;-It just about does the job!]
This morning I arrived Early in Spiddal,- so I had Time to Wander about the Sea-shore
It was a brilliantly beautifull bright sunny morning and the Tide was Out as I Scrambled down a Rock-face that is normally submerged under 20ft of sea water.
It was very Peacefull and Pleasant and I was in a Good Mood and in a relaxed way my thoughts turned Gently to Herself and of course I Wished Her Well !!!!
About midday[-whilst everybody else was having a lunch break I was alone in the Recording Studio]- New Music came to me as I touched the Keys of the Grand Piano !!!!
- I was Excited and Happy as the Melody developed !!!! [- I have my own invented idiosyncratic method of Writing Music onto Paper:- I Count the ivory keys from the Left side and I Jot down the Numbers eg:-for example Today I Started at the 17th Key from the Left on the Grand Piano and I Simultaneously placed another finger on the
21st Key;which Gave me a Pleasant Basic Chord to Play with my Left hand.- As for the First Note with the Right hand? - It was the 26th from the Left and Out of All that
a Beautifull Melody developed into 3 parts - It felt Good !!!! - an Achievement in comparison to what occurred the previous day[the 11th]:Yesterday 3 Good Melodies came to me at 3 Seperate occasions as I 'Tinkered'without any effort on the Piano.
- Yet when I returned to the Piano later on:-I had completely Forgotten the Melodies
Even though my fingers Hovered Over the Same arrangement of Keys !! - The Experiance makes me Wonder about The Emotions and Feelings involved in Music Composition
and Yes Also the Element of the Spiritual.
- Often when New Music comes :-
- Often It is an Outward Surge of the Spirit !!!!
and We had a Séan-Nos Singing/Song Workshop Today where that Theme of the Music coming from the Soul was mentioned and It being Indevidual to Each Performer whatever Version is Sung. - Afterwards I Travelled into Galway
and though the Sky is Overcast Tonight,
at Least it is relatively dry[- I say "relatively dry" at least for Ireland,
for of course Ireland being Ireland there is often as always some form of Moisture about!] Anyway I return to Spiddal tommorow.
- On Today's Posting on the Blog
- I have Endeavored to Type/Write 'Normal' !!!!

as for Tommorow ????
I do Not know will I have
Access to a Computer or Not ????
If Not ???? Maybe it will be Next week
when I next get to Update this Blog !!!!
Until than [or whenever?]

God Bless You All !!!!

If I Get the Oppurtunity I Will Talk about Lots of Topics

Usually when I 'Plonk'
myself in Front
of a Computer Screen
Often I Go Blank !
- as Often I Haven't
a Clue 'What to Talk About'

- Yet When I am
'Out and About'
I Often Have Lots
of Ideas about
What to Talk About

- Life in Ireland Today
- Languages I am Interested in
- Music and Music Composition
- Foreign Travel

As for the Previous Posting ????
[- about Herself and Myself] ????

To Be Honest:- I am Trying to Let Go
- I am Trying to Move On
It is Not Easy Though
Because Everything Reminds me of Her

Truely I Wish
That the Situation
Between Us
Could Be Resolved !!!!

Ideally It Would Be Good
If We Could Meet in Person !!!!

- however it seems
Unlikely that it will Occurr
- because We are Seperated
by 1000's of Kilometers

-As for a Dialogue via
an Exchange of Letters ????

Probebly She is Unwilling !!

Anything Else that Could Help ??
Is there Anything that Could
Improve the Situation ????

- Yes There Is !!!!

A Simple Message
of Goodwill from Her
Would Be Very Wellcome !!!!

Often I Reflect Upon ....

Often I Reflect Upon
What Occurred
Between Herself
and Myself when She
was in Ireland

We Met on the
4th of August 2001
She Left Ireland
in Early 2002

Initially it
Was Good
Between Us ...
I felt that I had met
Someone Very Special !!!!
I felt that I had met
Someone I could Regard
and Value as a
Friend for Life !!!!


This Entry in my Blogg
Is "Work in Progress"
in the sence that
I am still Working
on writing as Comprehensive
an Account of what Occurred
and as Accurate an Account
of How I Feel about Her Today !!!!
Before I Go any further in All
that I can and could Talk about
I just wish to Declare that
I scincerely am Aiming
for the Very Best of
All Possible Eventualites !!!!
That I Believe in Goodness !!!!
and I Do Believe in Love !!!!
and If the Ultimate Act of Love
that I could Ever Give Her
is to Let Go ????
- Than So Be It !!!!

Origionally this Entry to the Blogg
was Started on the 7th of November
as I write It is Now thursday the 27 th November'08
and I am Still Adding to It
-Why ? - Because I Often Think of Her !!!!
- Because in my Prayers I am Aiming
for an Outcome that is the
Ultimate Good for the Two of Us !!!!

I Consider All Possible Eventualities ????
and Only What is Good is Wellcome !!!!

I Do Genuinely Care about Her !!!!
Her Happieness Her Wellbeing
Do Matter and Are Important
in whatever Ultimate Outcome !!!!



Now I Acknowledge
a Lot of Confusion
about what is Possible ????
and Also Incomprehension
about Whatt Occurred
when She Lived in Ireland


When I first met Her
I Realised this is
Someone Unique and Very Rare !!!!
This is Someone Significant !!!!
I Felt Very Safe(:in that I
could Talk to Her about
Anything - That I could
Be 100% Open and Honest with Her !!!!)
I also Felt Very Comfertable
in Her Company !!!!
and there were So Many
Little Items about Her
that I Liked !!!!
I Smiled Often
with Affection !!!!





[-in Hindsight:
though I did Not
realise it at the Time
I Believe that I fell
in Love with Her !!!!]

Yet Sadly We Fell Out
over Really Very Little !!
and If We had
Talked to One Another ????
Truely I Believe We
could have Cleared Up
what had caused Us
to Fall Out !!

Subsequently
I Made Many
Unsucessful Attempts
to Make Peace with Her
She Used to Lash Out in Anger
when I Tryed to Reach Out to Her

I was Shocked and Bewildered
at Her Anger
at Her Rudeness
at How Little She "Cared"
about my Feelings
It was a Very Distressing Time
I could Not Understand
Her Hostility

Because there was
Once a Time
when We were Good Friends !!!!
Once there was a Time
when there was Mutual Trust !!!!
Once there was a Time
when We could
Talk to One Another !!!!


To This Very Day
Often It Still Adversely Affects Me
Especially When
I am Feeling Down or Low

The Situation
Between Us
Was Never Resolved

All I Asked of Her
was "Please Can We
Arrange to Meet and
have a Talk about
What has Occured Between Us?"

Today We Are
Seperated by 1000's of
Actual Kilometers

Realistically (Other
than via E-Mail)the
Only Way We Could
Resolve What Occured
Between Us :
= Would Be
A Dialogue
Via Letters !!!!

[-This Actual Posting on my Blogg is Not Well Written
because The Issue Itself is Very Complicated also there is a
Lot of Noise and Activity about as I Endeavour to Communicate]


Today How Do I Feel About Her ????

- If It Was Possible
To Gentley Lovingly Affectionally Hug Embrace Her ????
- Yes !!!! Yes !!!! Yes !!!! Yes !!!!
- I Would with Utter Joy !!!!
- For I Still Love Her !!!!

Because I Still Have
Positive Friendly
Loving Feelings For Her !!!!
and in my Prayers
I Do Wish Her Well !!!!

Yet Also in my Prayers
I am Asking Almighty God
to Please Faciletate
and to Please Allow
Reconciliation Between Us !!!!

If However that It is the Will of God
that I Let Her Go !!!!
and Accept that It is Over ????
Than So Be It !!!!

Whatever is in the Ultimate Good ????
So May it Be !!!!
With the Blessing and the Love of God !!!!
