Scottish Journeys Blessing
Oct. 17th, 2009 02:36 pmMay the blessing of light be upon you
Light without and light within.
May the sun shine on you like a great peat fire
So that friend and stranger may come and warm themselves.
And may light shine out of your eyes, like a candle set in the window of a house
Welcoming the wanderer come in out of the storm.
And may the blessing of the rain be upon you
May it tap on your Spirit and wash it clean
And leave a shining pool where the blue of heaven shines … and sometimes a star.
And may the blessing of the earth be upon
Soft under your feet as you pass along the road of life
Soft under you, tired at the end of a day;
And may it rest easy over you when your journey is over.
May it rest so lightly that your soul may rise lightly,
Up and off on its way to God.
And now may the Lord bless you and bless you kindly.
Light without and light within.
May the sun shine on you like a great peat fire
So that friend and stranger may come and warm themselves.
And may light shine out of your eyes, like a candle set in the window of a house
Welcoming the wanderer come in out of the storm.
And may the blessing of the rain be upon you
May it tap on your Spirit and wash it clean
And leave a shining pool where the blue of heaven shines … and sometimes a star.
And may the blessing of the earth be upon
Soft under your feet as you pass along the road of life
Soft under you, tired at the end of a day;
And may it rest easy over you when your journey is over.
May it rest so lightly that your soul may rise lightly,
Up and off on its way to God.
And now may the Lord bless you and bless you kindly.
I may have posted these lyrics before. If I have, well so be it. I re-posting them. Am writing another J-fic and this song always ends up on my j-Tunes playlist because the lyrics are perfect.

It's time to laugh, it's time to cry
It's time to be what you need to be
It won't be long till they are gone
And we can be what we want to be
I wanna run from everything
Everything that holds me down
Nothing to win, nothing to lose
You can't tell me what to do anymore
You can't tell me what to do anymore
Now I'm free, now I'm free, now I'm free
I'm gonna run, I'm gonna win
I'm gonna do what I need to do
'Cause it's time to be what I need to be
It's time to be what I need to be
You can't tell me what to do anymore
You can't tell me what to do anymore
Now I'm free, now I'm free, now I'm free
Oh yeah
I want to hold air in my hand
Own the one thing you can't buy
Nothing to win, nothing to lose
It's time to be what I need to be
I'm gonna run from everything
Everything that holds me down
Nothing to win, nothing to lose
It's time to be what I need to be
You can't tell me what to do anymore
You can't tell me what to do anymore
You can't tell me what to do anymore
Now I'm free, now I'm free, now I'm free
Truly a celebratory song of utter liberation in every way possible and on multiple levels of meaning. "You can't tell me what to do anymore, now I'm free, now I'm free, now I'm FREE!"
Sing it, Jon.

My first Joker review
Oct. 17th, 2009 10:50 pmI've begun to post my Date Series to Fanfiction.net. Why? Why not?
I began the process yesterday, posting in chronological order, beginning with 'The Nurse's Date.' I just got my first review. I feel really good about it.
I don't normally do this. I read this story for the first time yesterday and decided not to review it because I didn't know what to think of it. It's so very decidedly different from ANYTHING I've ever read. Coming back today, however, and seeing that it still had no reviews, (and not being able to get this story out of my mind,) I thought I'd throw in my two cents and tell you what I think. So here we go. First off, your writing is very good. Exceptionally so. You are clearly intelligent, that much is sure. I found absolutely NO typos, no grammar mistakes, and no errors of any kind to speak of. That says a lot, especially if you take into consideration the length of this story. Secondly, I want to address the reason why I think you haven't received any reviews yet. And this is just MY opinion, certainly not fact, so if you disagree at all with what I am about to share with you, please, tell me. Alright, so, I think the reason why you haven't received any reviews is because your portrayal of the Joker, (which is frighteningly accurate and extremely well written, I might add,) is TOO Joker-ish.
( more of the review. it's long and I love it. )
