“Sway”

When marimba rhythms start to play
Dance with me, make me sway
Like the lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close, sway me more

Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me, sway with ease
When we dance, you have a way with me
Stay with me, sway with me

Other dancers may be on the floor
I got eyes to see only you
Only you have that magic technique
When we sway, I grow weak

I can hear the sound of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now

Like the lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close, sway me more

When we dance, you have a way with me
Stay with me, sway with me

Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have that magic technique
When we sway, I grow weak

I can hear that sound of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now

Make me thrill as only you know how
Come on and sway me now

Put on a happy face – Van Dyke and Janet Leigh

Gray skies are gonna clear up,
Put on a happy face;
Brush off the clouds and cheer up,
Put on a happy face.
Take off the gloomy mask of tragedy,
It’s not your style
You’ll look so good that you’ll be glad
Ya’ decide to smile!
Pick out a pleasant outlook,
Stick out that noble chin;
Wipe off that “full of doubt” look,
Slap on a happy grin!
And spread sunshine all over the place,
Just put on a happy face!
And if you’re feeling cross and bitterish
Don’t sit and whine
Think of banana split and licorice
And you’ll feel fine
I knew a girl so glooming
She’d never laugh or sing
She wouldn’t listen to me
Now she’s a mean old thing
So spread sunshine all over the place
Just put on a happy face
So, put on a happy face

Bye, Bye Birdie
Ann-Margret

Bye, bye, Birdie
I’m gonna miss you so
Bye, bye, Birdie
Why’d ya have to go (Bye, bye)
No more sunshine (Sunshine)
It’s followed you away (You away)
I’ll cry, Birdie (Birdie)
Till you’re home to stay (Home to stay)
I’ll miss the way you smile
As though it’s just for me
And each and ev’ry night
I’ll write to you faithfully
Bye, bye, Birdie,
It’s awful hard to bear
Bye, bye, Birdie
Guess I’ll always care
Guess I’ll always ca-a-a-a-are
Guess I’ll always care!

Ann-Margret, Jesse Pearson & Bobby Rydell – A Lot of Livin’ to Do

There are chicks just ripe for some kissin’
And I mean to kiss me a few!
Man those chicks don’t know what they’re missin’,
I got a lot of living to do!

Sizzlin’ steaks all ready for tastin’
And there’s Cadillacs all shiny and new!
Gotta move, cause time is a-wastin’,
I got a lot of livin’ to do!

There’s music to play
Places to go, people to see!
Everything for you and me!

Life’s a ball
If only you know it
And it’s all just waiting for you
You’re alive,
So come on and show it
Yeah we got a lot of livin’ to do

There are men with childhood behind them
Handsome men
From Yale or Purdue
Older men and I’m gonna find them
I got a lot of living to do

I’m a’gonna have fun
Gonna be wild
Have my own way
I may break—a heart today

Drink champagne
As if it were water
Pink champagne
And after a few
Daddy dear, you won’t know your daughter
She’s got a lot of living to do

Think I’ll be a ring a ding drummer
Make each week a thousand or two
Gorgeous girls will beg for my number
Hey I got a lot of living to do

Yes I’m gonna break out
Gonna take off
Gonna be free
This town is awfully square for a guy like me

Or I’ll be a super jet pilot
Fly me high way out in the blue
Then they’ll see
I’m no shrinking violet
Hey I got a lot of living to do

I got a lot of living to do

Birdie, Hugo, and Kim:
There’s music to play
Places to go, people to see!
Everything
For you and me!

Life’s a ball
If only you know it
Yeah it’s all just waiting for you
Ah you’re alive,
So come on and show it
We got a lot of livin’
Such a lot of livin’

Tonight’s the night we’re gonna fly
Let’s kick this hick town in the hide

I want a taste of everything
Let’s live it up and really swing

Got a lot of living living living to do

Creating What We Don’t Want

When our thoughts become consumed with worry, we become a beacon of worry to the world.

If prayer is an intention that we announce to the universe in order to create a desired outcome, then our every thought is a prayer. This includes thoughts of worry as well as of hope. All thoughts are subtle creative energy. Some thoughts are more focused or repeated more often, gathering strength. Some are written down or spoken, giving them even greater power. Every thought we have is part of a process whereby we co-create our experience and our reality with the universe. When we use our creative energy unconsciously, we create what is commonly known as self-fulfilling prophecy. In essence, when we worry, we are repeatedly praying and lending our energy to the creation of something we don’t want.

The good news is that we can re-train our minds and thoughts to focus our energy on what we do desire to bring into our lives. Since most worry is repetitive, it will take more than one positive thought to counteract the energy we’ve created. The simplest antidote to worry is affirmations. When we hold these positive thoughts, repeat them often, speak them and write them and refer to them throughout our day, we are using focused energy to create positive results.

We can start right away, together: I am a creative being, using my energy to cocreate a wonderful world. I know that I create my experience of life from within, and as I do so, I also create ripples of energy around me that echo into the world. My positive thoughts gather together with the thoughts and prayers of others, and together we create enough positive energy to heal not only our own lives but the world we share. I am grateful for the ability to cocreate good in my life and in the world.

A lot of times we have concerned loved ones that worry about us. When this happens they are also sending out a worry prayer to the world. A loving conversation letting them know what is happening is the easiest solution. Also, ask them to send you positive affirmations rather than worry about you. After all, worry doesn’t do them any good either. Explain to them that worry can actually be energetically harmful to you and that wishing good things for you is much more beneficial and much more fun too. ✨✨ AMEN!
