Blog post #36 - Monday Morning Moment

(Oops and a smidge of Memory Lane thrown in for fun! - Stacey story alert)

I often say to my flock, ”we can hear the singer thinking and if the singer isn’t thinking anything, then we’re not hearing anything!”
My daddy thought Wagner was God!
I was never convinced about that!
Stace used to say, “Wagner composed some of the most sublime music ever written, with the biggest load of twaddle in between.”
I loved his story about attending the dress rehearsal of one of Wagner’s monolithic efforts with Charlie Mackerras.
After it had been grinding away for about two hours, Charlie saw him looking at his watch (a pocket watch you may recall, so it was always obvious!) which appeared to have gone into a time warp, for only five minutes had passed! He leant over to Stace and said, “I’ve had enough of this, let’s get out of here and into the Lemon Tree.” (The pub in the lane behind The Colly)
Stace said he could have kissed him!
Ah well. Dickie Wagner did have a point though about imagination, a fancy word for thinking, I’m thinking. 😆
We are what we imagine.
Mind you the big stuff happens when we follow up with action.
That little butterfly had a big task to bloom from the chrysalis.
Love to all and have a wonderful week.
