I'm glad I took the opportunity to stay at home and rest today. It's been rather more productive than spending 90 minutes whizzing Oswald up and down the motorway. So, instead, I made my house stink of white sage, cranked up the music and ploughed into a 2,000 word essay. I've done most of the research. Now I just have to make sure it is coherent and actually answers the question.
I am listening to Gentleman, who is actually a German dude with a passion for Jamaica. One website source claimed he expresses his devotion to God without defining a particular religion. Never believe what you read kids! Every song he sings mentions JAH. If I'm not mistaken, that is the Rastafarian Big Dude, which kind of does single out a particular religion. Ho hum!
That got me thinking about something else. You see a Rastafarian walking down the street and you think, 'Cool! He's a dude with faith and he gets to smoke pot as part of his religion.' Then you see a Catholic priest who isn't even supposed to engage in the most natural demonstrations and expressions of LOVE: Sex. Intercourse. Copulation. Procreation... Recreation!
I know which one appeals more to me, but I am still highly suspicious of any organised institutions. A person is intelligent. People are stupid. As soon as they gather en masse, something bizarre happens and nothing makes sense any more.
But that's enough jibbering. Enjoy the music, sent with love, hugs and giggles. If you don't like this genre, just enjoy it for the fact it's a music video that features, a forest, a dog, a real heart, t'ai chi and a mountain bike.
And as Gentleman says: "Your awareness is rising. Don't let it drop" ;o) Keep shining dudes and dudettes xXx
