#Bruxelles

#Burnout ...moi ou est-ce le monde qui est en Burnout ?
Consommer jusqu'à se consumer? C'est indigeste, ça donne la nausée.
Se poser et reprendre le temps, celui du vivant.
Apaiser le feu intérieur en s'abreuvant de simples moments nourrissants.
Laissez-nous vivre.

Unbeaten by the rain
Unbeaten by the wind
Bested by neither snow nor summer heat
Strong of body
Free of desire
Never angry
Always smiling quietly
Dining daily on four cups of brown rice
Some miso and a few vegetables
Observing all things
With dispassion
But remembering well
Living in a small, thatched-roof house
In the meadow beneath a canopy of pines
Going east to nurse the sick child
Going west to bear sheaves of rice for the weary mother
Going south to tell the dying man there is no cause for fear
Going north to tell those who fight to put aside their trifles
Shedding tears in time of drought
Wandering at a loss during the cold summer
Called useless by all
Neither praised
Nor a bother
Such is the person
I wish to be

-- Hart Larrabee’s translation of Kenji Miyazawa’s poem Ame ni mo makezu

#JukeboxFridayNight has been on for a while in NZ, where it originates. I'll chime in, though it's a few hours till night where I am. The theme is #Simplicity: simple tunes (simple structure, pared-back performances) and simple topics.

Your Song / Elton John

"I know it's not much
but it's the best I can do.
My gift is my song and
this one's for you.

And you can tell everybody
this is your song.
It may be quite simple but
now that's it's done..."
