love's music

No singing tonight, due to Valentine's day. This saddens me as there is a lot of love that happens in that choir - we build community well in a non cliquey way - each week there are different people, embraced just as much as the old timers. The people who run it deserve a night off tho so hopefully each individual will enjoy love in their own ways before we are back together again before long. As the weather wildens* once more, maybe people wouldn't have wanted to venture out in any case. I shall endeavour to keep spreading the love from the warmth of my own home (apart from the trip to purchase paint, where I will drive very carefully). So far I have given imaginary flowers, and done my usual love sharing with everyone on facebook. I cba to check but have no doubt I will have banged on the last few Valentine's Days about how whilst it's important to celebrate romantic love, there are many who find today difficult and so that's where I put my energies. I know that I don't see it as a day's mission in any case ;)
Hope you're having lots of fun spreading the love wherever you are :D

*I suspect I have made up this word. I'm sure you will follow what I'm trying to express.

The song i shared on facebook has ace lyrics, including:
All things being even,
here's what I believe in -
Nothing matters more than love.
Friendship and affection...
Real connection...
It's a gift from above.

Every song that we play -
Every prayer that we pray -
Makes a bond in a way that's profound.
We're just here to spread that love all around
...
Start a conversation,
throw a celebration,
let whatever's in you out!
Welcoming and sharing,
simply caring
that's what love is about.

Don't just sit on the side,
go along for the ride -
With your heart open wide as it goes!
Let love's music fill you down to your toes!
...
Everyone, join your hands together!
Everyone, find the common ground!
Everyone, sister and brother,
love one another,
spread it around!
