Just a simple piece to start out the week. I don’t feel like it’s quite finished yet, but this is what I’ve got at the moment.
A very happy Labor Day to all of my Canadian and American friends. As for us down south, it’s Brazil’s Independence Day. I’m off to enjoy a bowl of Acaí cream with my family.
Who’s your star? Who’s your song?
I am not an expert at anything
Not poetry
Not music
Not drawing, nor painting
Not mixed media
Not parenting, nor teaching
But I have passion
I have desire
And what I do, I do with purpose and love
I give it my all
The Little Drummer Boy did too. He stood before a little baby, who was also a king. He wondered at the peaceful, innocent, simple scene. So touched he was that he wanted to give him something special. Something given in love and honor. He wasn’t the greatest drummer. Heck, he was only a young boy. He didn’t have material wealth, nor a fine gift to offer him, so he played. He played with passion, with heart – he gave it his all. Then the baby smiled at him. That’s what I want. I want to see him smile at me. That’s my greatest treasure. That’s my greatest reward.
Here’s one of my favorite Christmas songs of all time.
Little Drummer Boy by Pentatonix on Youtube.
What is the best gift you have ever received? What Christmas song do enjoy most?
