EMPOWERED MOM

I LOVE THIS SONG… Nina Simone has always been my favorite singer. There is something in the way she sings that makes me feel the message of each of her songs… Kinda like listening to your own heart beat…

The song below was used as one of the songs for our play, “Adios Papa”, which starred Tito Ricky Lluch and Tita Tatit Fajardo, with the guys of Pasundayag Community Theater. I played “Azucena”, the maid. Well.. just a few tidbits of what I used to do, but have always loved…

This song’s lyrics is touching.. I like to think of this as my life anthem…

Here is the lyrics:

Some say love it is a river
that drowns the tender reed
Some say love it is a razor
that leaves your soul to bleed

Some say love it is a hunger
an endless aching need
I say love it is a flower and you it’s only seed

It’s the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance

It’s the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance
It’s the one who won’t be taken
who cannot seem to give
and the soul afraid of dyingthat never learns to live

When the night has been too lonely
and the road has been too long
and you think that love is only
for the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snows
lies the seed that with the sun’s love
in the spring becomes the rose

I feel like singing this song tonight:

This is like me consoling me… hehehe…

Kilig is to feel one with the character in love… in the movies, in the stories read in books and so on and so forth.. I am keeping track of all the movies, videos, TV ad or anything that gave me my kilig moments in media— lol..

This first one is the music video of the movie, “Now that I have You..”
