Re: If...
oliver,
Oh how lovely! I just listened to "IF" by john lennon above. I have never heard it before. Thankyou so much for posting this. Feeling very peaceful now, anger all gone. It worked!
Actually, i must say that this thread, oliver, is imho, the most peaceful place at Avalon. It really is nice to see my favourite pieces of poetry here. I am glad that other people like them too. I know that sounds cheesy, but its true and needs saying. Its kinda like a place to get away form it all, if that so pleases!
I am trying to find "Ascent of the Matterhorn". I had always believed it to be a poem, but i think its actually a book. There's an exercept from it that i was required to read b4 a group of fellow students at an outward bound camp as school girl, the memory of it was strong because of the acute embarassment. Anyway, i liked what i read, it started:
Climb if you will,
but remember ? something
and something
is nought without prudence?
See, i don't remember much, lol
have done google/ scroogle, but not getting far?
Any suggestions?
