yesterday i participated in 3 really good meetings. one consisted of some planning ideas for a website for the planning council regarding council business and the perhaps affecting the larger hiv community and even more than that. this was exciting business to consider and has provided me with new hope for the roles and functions i may play in my community.
the second was less glamorous, but one i personally felt i needed. i went in and laid out my ideas and asked for some feedback, and that was freely and cautiously given and i went on my way.
the third involved a hand off of the happy hours for SIN to a couple of guys who are younger and probably more culturally competent for such things. i hope they enjoy the process and have some fun. and i am even more happy that people are getting involved.
the inspiration for the musical portion of this post was a desire to share one of my favorite remix albums of all time which was released in 2001 i believe. shirley bassey- diamonds are forever- the remixes.
i swear these remixes are the bomb! classic dame bassey vocals with some ultra cool contemporary bass lines and instrumentation rolling alongside and supporting from underneath. each one captures something extraordinary about her vocals and all of these creations seem natural and meant-to-be.
turn it up baby, and hava cuppa.....i believe you will not be disappointed!
if a man could only see himself as the younger man that grewfull lyrics here
