JP Cooper - In The Silence | Mahogany Session (video)


 #InTheSilence #UnderGreySkies #MahoganySessions #JPCooper
   
I've been seeking silver linings, feeling incomplete
Singing "oh oh I wish it didn't taste so bittersweet"
So enamoured, stutter, stammered, oh my voice was broke
Like a poor man stood before the queen
I tripped over my tongue before I spoke

And though I never said it with words
There was love in the silence
Even now after all of these years
You're the light in my darkness

Used to share that feeling, dreaming
Gazing at the bedroom ceiling
Oh oh now I'm lay here wishing you'd come home

And though I never said it with words
There was love in the silence
Even now after all of these years
You're the light in my darkness
Darling please, listen close and you'll hear
There's still love in the silence
Even now after all these long years
I feel love in the quiet

And though I never said it with words
There was love in the silence
Even now after all of these years
You're the light in my darkness
Darling please, listen close and you'll hear
There's still love in the silence
Even now after all these long years
I feel love in the quiet

A call for equality and freedom, it became one of the defining moments of the civil rights movement

       #MLK #MartinLutherKingJr #IHaveaDream I Have a Dream, speech by Martin Luther King, Jr., that was delivered on August 28, 1963, during the March on Washington. A call for equality and freedom, it became one of the defining moments of the civil rights movement and one of the most iconic speeches in American history. Some 250,000 people gathered at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C., for the March on Washington. The one-day event both protested racial discrimination and encouraged the passage of civil rights legislation; at the time, the Civil Rights Act was being discussed in Congress. The march featured various speeches as well as musical performances before King, a celebrated orator, appeared as the final official speaker; A. Philip Randolph and Benjamin Mays ended the proceedings with a pledge and a benediction, respectively. Early in his prepared speech, King referenced Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address with “Five score years ago….” He then spoke a...

A Poetic Reflection on The New Year by Sharon L DuBois

#Happy New Year #NewBeginnings #SharonDubois #2025 H ow many times has one year flown by, without my humble, wide-eyed A mazement at the awesome wonders and blessings contained within? Is it P ossible that I have forgotten about the seemingly small, occasionally overlooked, daily miracles?? P eeking a blind eye around a blind corner to the approaching tomorrow, neglecting the precious gift of all Y esterdays. Reminder to self: Express genuine thankfulness for my family, friends, my job, which provides harvest-yielding seed, & All Praises to My Heavenly Father, whose Grace abounds brand spankin’ N ew every morning, as evidenced by my health, life,  and strength. With each drop of rain, and rising of the sun, I am made aware of the E ver-present opportunity to do a “new thing”, a “new way”, with a “renewed mind”!! No logical reason to W hine or complain about difficulties along the journey, “JUST DO IT!!” The sum total of each and every one of my Y est...
