Lily of the Valley Day

Published on by Glorialana3 Comments

Hello God!

Thank You for the 1st of May! Today is well known as Labour Day, but in France today isn’t just Labor Day – it’s also a day filled with fragrant white bells and heartfelt wishes.

Today we are celebrating La Fête du Muguet, or Lily of the Valley Day, by offering small bouquets of these delicate flowers to friends, family, and loved ones.

Since 1561, after King Charles IX received a small bouquet of lilies of the valley as a token of good fortune, he decreed that every year on May 1st this flower should be given to the ladies of his court.

Not only florists are overflowing our streets with the bouquets of pure happiness – I have found the boulangerie with wonderful cakes with white drops of chocolate on the waffles leaves. Oh, this is delicious!

So take this bloom with heart sincere,

A charm for luck through all the year.

Let every petal gently say:

“I wish you happiness today.”

With this delicate piano music, with this precious 4 minutes of purity and tenderness, with the sweetness of white chocolate and a glass of champagne I wish you Beauty and Light in every smiles you will meet today.

Thank You for your smiling eyes, please, no crying, I am going too, because of this overwhelming Beauty. I Love You! I Thank You! Endlessly.

Beethoven Cosmos

Hello God!

Thank You for Moonlight Sonata! I’m playing it on the piano for you now.

With the first touching octave do sharp# in left hand and the wave sol sharp#-do sharp#-mi for right hand the gravitation law is overcame. I am in Beethoven Cosmos – under my fingers is the dance of whirling universes illuminating in the paintings by Ann Weirich.

Adagio sostenuto is at the beginning.

I am an astronaut, aspiring and brave,

In Sol-Do-Mi Sol-Do-Mi waves

The melody of other Galaxy I feel:

Sol-Sol-Sol.

Elisa

Allegretto Movement leads, of course, to the Planet of Immortal Beloved. Beethoven invites us to this planet he created by his love. His Music under my fingers tells the story, I am reading in his letter:

“…my ideas yearn towards you, my Immortal Beloved, here and there joyfully, then again sadly, awaiting from Fate, whether it will listen to us. I can only live, either altogether with you or not at all. …Your love made me the happiest and unhappiest at the same time. …

My everything, you – you – my life – my everything: see “you – you – my everything, my happiness … my solace – my everything”

The planet under my fingers is incredibly light and beautiful.

There are no thoughts,
only heart thinking.
There is no speech,
only heart speaking…

Presto agitato demands virtuosic playing. The 3 movement is technical and emotionally expressive. Playing it is incredibly difficult.

I touch a million tiny stars, planets, comets, meteorites.

They crash and burst –

I am in endless joy and endless pain,

I am in infinitive laughs and infinitive tears.

It almost unbearable, but I can not stop.

I am in Cosmos of millions breathings…

Destiny

Beethoven opens the door to infinitive Cosmos.

We are all an astronauts there. It is our gift and we are a gift to it.

Please enjoy Beethoven Cosmos! Thank you for this blessing to share it with you!

Happy Today!

 

50 days of silence

Hello God!

Thank You for this possibility to come back. I have never even suspected that coming back is so hard.

I am writing the 15th version of this post now due to the words are stumbling on each others. Its are in hurry to see Your beautiful smile. I missed You very much. I missed my wings which are Your reading eyes.

The wings that follow me

are breathing with my lungs

Breeze of your joy wakes me up

My dream was sweet…

But I want to be awaken

I want to be with You!

You see my angel on this amazing painting by Marina Chaikovskaya.

Silence

I have found a very nice book “Silence. The Mystery of Wholeness” by Cheryl Sanders-Sardello. Look what he writes, “The enormity of life’s tasks weigh and press on the day… they demand and insist on a constancy of attention that is relentless. Ah… but we are fortunate to have night’s solace – in the silence that is created by the dark”.

The Author continues, “Night… that melancholy time, when the stars remind us of the silence of God. Here we can remember the future and lean into the unknown, setting aside the oppressive weight of our carefully constructed version of who we think we are, and release that side of the pool. We can remember how to see in the dark… with our ears… perceiving the silence in its holy echoing and resonance, its calling forth a knowing that is from soul”.

“This silence sends us on a different pilgrimage. It guards the heart’s fire and teaches us to speak from within, with a language that is imbued with the sacred. Words thus nurtured in this holy silence fly forth with the wings of joy, and return to lead us back to the silence from which they were born.” What a beautiful words! The sounds of Chopin’s nocturne are in my ears.

Silence is a treatment for soul. And as a therapy by drugs silence demands the particular dosage. You know silence is seductive and narcotic. Overdosing is dangerous.

Once I had found myself as a fly trapped in a spider’s web. I do hope I have escaped the web by the wings that follow me. You are my wings. Thank You for my awakening.

April Fantasy

Published on by Glorialana23 Comments

Hello God!

Thank You for April. April is Great Inspirer. I am listening a wonderful piano music seeing this painting by Roman Velichko. It seems the artist is April. And April plays Chopin’s Fantasy-Impromptu in c sharp minor.

From the first sound of the fantasy, g sharp  – octave, April picks up and carries us to a magical, mesmerising, rapid and tremulous crystal vortex. It takes us into the fascinating unknown world of Spring dreams. Sparkling waterfall of sounds leads to the middle part, where, finally, comes to the calm, and we hear one of the most soulful melodies of Chopin. Franz Liszt reflects our thoughts and emotions  – ” Every Chopin’s note is the jewel that fells from the sky.”

SpringMelody

April plays a melody
A light green song of spring.
And every time a rainbow sings,
A golden dandelions grow.

O… Enjoy the voice of spring,
April echoes over the land.
Performed in perfect harmony;
Chopin helps to feel the Grand Design!

Thank you for sharing with me this happy April moment. Happy April and have a beautiful spring week!
