in the arts

Recently I read a piece written by one of the student I tutor
He wrote about living your dream and not missing out every oppurtunity
when I sit in front of a piano I wish I can play tchaikovsky
when I walk down a street with my ipod, I wish I was dancing like a rock star
when I have my guitar on my lap I wish i plucked a beautiful song not merely strum
oh it is all possible, I see them on tv, i see them on stage
real people, real music, real dance,real melody
living the dream
not missing every oppurtunity

My mommy day song written for Mommy :)

I miss you mommy

Mommy
Verse 1:

A virtuous wife 
A mother of strength 
When things go wrong 
With your might 
You’ll make it all right
Wise words you speak
Faithful instructions
I’ll hide them close in my heart
It’ll never depart
Pre-Chorus:
All the rubies and treasures
There’s no one worth more than you
Chorus:
You’re my blessing in the wake of day
I’ll honor you for all your hands has done
Not a moment had you ever stop loving me
Mom, you’ve given me more than I could give
Not a time have I been in want
Cause I have since the day I called you
Mommy
Verse 2:
When you were right
And I was blind
In your embrace I am in
I knew I was wrong
Wise words you speak
Faithful instructions
I’ll hide them close in my heart
It’ll never depart
Epilogue: The Wife of Noble Character
 10 [b]A wife of noble character who can find?
   She is worth far more than rubies.
11 Her husband has full confidence in her
   and lacks nothing of value.
12 She brings him good, not harm,
   all the days of her life.
13 She selects wool and flax
   and works with eager hands.
14 She is like the merchant ships,
   bringing her food from afar.
15 She gets up while it is still night;
   she provides food for her family
   and portions for her female servants.
16 She considers a field and buys it;
   out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.
17 She sets about her work vigorously;
   her arms are strong for her tasks.
18 She sees that her trading is profitable,
   and her lamp does not go out at night.
19 In her hand she holds the distaff
   and grasps the spindle with her fingers.
20 She opens her arms to the poor
   and extends her hands to the needy.
21 When it snows, she has no fear for her household;
   for all of them are clothed in scarlet.
22 She makes coverings for her bed;
   she is clothed in fine linen and purple.
23 Her husband is respected at the city gate,
   where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.
24 She makes linen garments and sells them,
   and supplies the merchants with sashes.
25 She is clothed with strength and dignity;
   she can laugh at the days to come.
26 She speaks with wisdom,
   and faithful instruction is on her tongue.
27 She watches over the affairs of her household
   and does not eat the bread of idleness.
28 Her children arise and call her blessed;
   her husband also, and he praises her:
29 “Many women do noble things,
   but you surpass them all.”
30 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting;
   but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.
31 Honor her for all that her hands have done,
   and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.
