This thing called Life

little prince

Dearly beloved
We are gathered here today
to get through this thing called life

Electric word life
It means forever and that’s a mighty long time
But I’m here to tell you
There’s something else
The afterworld

A world of never ending happiness
You can always see the sun, day or night …
– Let’s Go Crazy by Prince

It’s not the afterworld; it’s the now, this moment that matters. This world.
He lived it – Such a teaching weaved into lyrics which in a way is the irony.
To believe life is forever because of the after-life?
You believe in whatever gets you through life …

Happy Earth Day !
“Everyday is Earth Day” to us earthlings: )

Prince was a Little Prince

It’s such a synchro ! Oddly while I was referring to Little Prince in my own post titled “Sense of Wholeness”, I find out Prince at age only 57 died…disbelief … 57? Isn’t 57 supposed to be just a number or the new 30? Makes one reflect on human mortality – the impertinence of this life.

That flamboyant Prince … He was like that shooting fireworks – one who lived with such intensity (“Can you make it rain harder?”). So sad if he had only practiced yoga, maybe he could have been saved. Or at least, could have extended his life a bit but heard he needed a double hip replacement surgery (Rajasic lifestyle can be punishing…those heels and the moves) I really believe this – yoga works. Don’t think alternative medicine alone or being vegan is the answer – it’s a balance of Western and Eastern medicine, complementing each other … What do I know? I don’t know a lot of things – but just that.

This video on utube is so interesting – he was a genius; so sad he did not leave a genius little prince and princesses behind so his DNA could have lived on – yet by inspiring others, I guess he’s doing that in his once again, over-the-top, unique genius way. He lives on with the creations he leaves behind and …the memories:
