I want to write something brilliant except I feel I have left it too late. I am tired and it may not convey well. However this is all about letting a flow go and being open. I have decided to just let it go, to share with the world. It feels safe still as no one is really reading this blog yet. I kind of always think that when you perform on stage you should never say sorry for mistakes, rather own them and let them become something beautiful and maybe it is the same with the written word. Sometimes mistakes are the curve, that bring a new breath of changing beauty.
Today has been a big long day of beauty. I worked with children at a child care centre from 8:15pm till 5:15pm, which was really beautiful. The best part was driving them around in the pink cars singing broooommmm outside when it was spitting.
After work I did a spot of shopping including three cans for a fund raiser for the Freestore (Cuba Street, Wellington, New Zealand). This is a place that gives everything away for free!
I went down town with my cans and musical gear and played a short set for the people at the fund raiser. I was nervous, my keys kept shorting out because my power plug is a bit wreaked. Initially some teens from the rock school bunged it. I was running the Wellington School of Rock much before all this new new current influx of life in these posts begun. It was based at Zeal. This was where the fund raiser took place (Youth Venue, 103 Ghuznee Street Wellington, New Zealand).
On the way to the fund raiser I cried in the car. I like to do this occasionally as well as to eat ridiculous and impossible food when driving, just for a thrill. I let out some emotion about my Mother Helen Simpson, whom passed away 23 January 2010. She was amazingly beautiful, a real bella. She would have been at the show and she would have loved the concept of the Freestore. She used to give away a lot of time, love and things like food and goods to those who needed them. I wished she could also attend the event, but I think maybe she was there in a way. I feel inspired to play music, to be all I am meant to be and to let the love I know, be shown. Some times in deep sorrow there is great joy. In lost there is found.
At the Freestore fund raiser we also watched a movie called Bella:

If it hasn't happened to you yet...it will. BELLA is a true love story about how one day in New York City changed three people forever. Director: Writers: Stars: ................................................ The movie was good. It made me cry and laugh. It was about a woman who is fired from her job at a Mexican restaurant for being late just too many times. The chef who is the owners brother decides to walk out of the restaurant for the day and show the woman some understanding. She is pregnant and the movie is hinged around her feelings about this and his caring reaction to her. It also brings in his jubilant family who show love towards her. In one scene they plant trees and in another they eat green apples on a bus. This reminds me of how each piece of fruit contains a seed and in a seed is life. Also in her tummy was life, she was a baby incubator. The movie also touched on the theme of parental loss, adoption and abortion. My Mother was adopted and I could relate to some of the themes explored by the key characters. It was worth a watch and I recommend it. I also recommend planting daffodils with your young ones. I planted daffodils with my one of my nephews not so long ago and they are starting to sprout. Every time I look at them I think of his lovely little hands potting them. He also likes to build train tracks. These days the designs are getting quite sophisticated and I think he might have an engineers mind, like my Father Bob Simpson whom is an engineer. | ||
Marsha Kupriyenko organised the Freestore fund raiser. She is really really awesome. You can find her on Facebook. She has a lot of up play with different pulses. For her it seems every moment in life is one decisive heartbeat. She is a treasure. She danced for Winter Sports Meets Imperialism and Pop Culture theme piece at S.A.M.P.L.E. She represented the character of childlike innocence. Stunning!
Okay this is enough as I could continue, but sleep would never come and one must catch winks of R.E.M blinks to continue on a productive and successful existence in real time day time fun time expression life discovery activity brilliance of thought and outpouring movement and time. Word bliss out.
