A couple of other videos on "validation." 

I add this Hawaiian blessing, since my President was born there...

"ho'oponopono — setting to right; to make right; to correct; to restore and maintain good relationships among family, and family-and-supernatural powers. A family conference in which relationships were set right through prayer, discussion, confession, repentance, and mutual restitution and forgiveness.

Derivation

This ho'oponopono has certain specific requirements. Some concern procedure; others attitudes.

Always included in complete ho'oponopono are:

Mutual forgiveness and releasing from the guilts, grudges, and tensions occasioned by the wrong-doing (hala). This repenting-forgiving-releasing is embodied in the twin terms, mihi and kala.

Happy Sunday!

P.S. As Charlie once reminded me, making people laugh is also a way of spreading sunshine, even though everyone might not appreciate one's sense of humor.

Amen.

thank you so much for adding so much great material

I cant wait to watch these videos

here is the song

This one is for my neighbors downstairs who are now fighting

( really useful  for me when the silent swiss guy across the hallway complains again

about the dog i have someone to blame  )  

this is the ultimate poster girl for Israel singing Hava Nagila in the good old

days when  we were popular and people from europe came to volunteer on kibbutzim

Hava Nagila means lets rejoice

"Lets rejoice

and be happy

wake up brothers

with a happy heart "

it is such a horribly cliche video but it did put a smile on my face and silenced the screaming downstairs

Rain-what makes flowers grow and taxis disappear

It saves time and prevents arguments"

i used to babysit a girl called veronica when i was a student 

and i used to get photos of her every year at christmas 

I had a crush on a guy called "Tom"  way back when i was a student 

and so i played this song by David Bowie back when we had answering machines to come home to 

so it would play when he would call 

at the end i fell in love with the song but out of love with Tom  

deep really deep 

changes 

loved it in "shrek 2" too  

"time may change me but i cant change time "

I love David Bowie

David 

i dont think me and you have quite the same definition of "fun"

i am just an old fashioned girl with buttoned up shirts 

but then again it takes all types to make a world 

on my way to the kunsthaus to the exhibition urban art

no nudity just words that bear a naked truth 

the ultimate "be as you are " unconditional standard would be nice to have
