Aura

Well, my nephew and I went to an aura reading seminar lecture thing yesterday and it was interesting. I suppose I have too open a mind (hopefully not suggestible). The lecture had to do with how we are all energy first and that reality lies within us not in the physical world. The lecturers where 81 year old Dottie and her husband Joe. Dottie has the gift of seeing auras and both my nephew and I had a reading done - 1/2 hour each and we went together. What she said was dead on and cool. How much of this is pure observation or reality is hard to say as I have no such sight. My father would never go in for such things.

Dottie has great hope for the future and sees things changing greatly in the next 5 years. She is a lovely person and it was cool to talk to her. My nephew got quite excited when she knew about the 6th age of the Mayans and the 100th monkey - he had never run into another human being who had heard of such things. She saw an entity watching over my nephew and a man with a gotee watching over me. I think I know who that entity might be. I believe that we are made up of energy and when we die that energy must go somewhere. There is the question - where.

In other news I have bowed down in a way and did a personality profile thing on eHarmony - a dating website. If I am going to find a mate I need to become serious about finding a mate. I just have this fear about ending up alone. It might well happen you know as I age and my father dies and my nephew grows. I have friends and am not alone - but -

Suzuki graduation today and my one student made it in the nick of time. I am proud that she made it as she was quite upset at her last lesson and I have decided to take her off Suzuki literature for the summer and work on fiddle tunes for the period fair in September. I really want her to have fun.

I came across a violinist/fiddler online who did an awesome cadenza for a Mozart violin concerto - it goes through the world's folk music and is quite well done. It's a bit long being longer than the concerto itself, but he's such a compelling player that he manages to pull it off. He's not typical classical wet foot guy. (I find him a joy to watch) and I want my students to have the same joy about playing. Click on the web address and you should find the video. I found it under "Mozart Cadenza" when searching. His name by the way is Gilles Apap. He is a bit "in your face" with the world music. he's almost too talented. Still - - - -
