Opportunity Murray Pete

Don’t be scared of what you cannot see

Your only fear is possibility

Never wonder what the hell went wrong

Your second chance may never come along

But the green was yellow

Last night Kaz and I attended A day on the Green at All Saints Winery in Wahgunyah.

 

As it was my first concert event since seeing The Angels in 1994, I didn’t know what to expect.

Though we kind of missed Ash Grunwald (never heard of him before). The whole event was pretty good.

 

They did however had a few technical hitches with sound until the sun went down (or Pete Murray came on) but from what we heard of Sarah Blasko and Tim Finn was great.

 

As someone from the older generation of music I leant more to liking to Tim Finn over Pete Murray whereas Kaz was the other way around. I do like the music of Crowded House and Splitz Enz but after this event I think I may become a fan of Pete Murray. That’s a big may.

 

It was also nice of the Pallett’s (minister from Corowa) to put us up for the night. Even though it did seem that we were kind of treating their home as a hotel.

 

All in all, great night, great company, great hosts, great weekend.

You Betya

Sunil Gavaskar has asked if Australians would greet John Howard with Hiya Buddy.

 

You Betya we would.

An ode of lonliness

Here I am all alone
The kids are in bed
The TV’s on
What’s on?
I don’t know
Not really watching

The fan is going
It moves the air
It’s now less stuffy
but also a bit chilly
Nah never happy

And You
The one that’s in my thoughts
You’re the reason I’m not happy
That’s not fair on you.
You arn’t to blame.
You see it’s me.

I miss your company
I miss your smile
You are my sounding board.
You are my friend.
I miss you.

But you I know
Friends to the end
No more or less
Is what it should be
Oh well, my friends
That’s life.

One day this pain
That sits in my heart
Will all of a sudden
quickly depart
On this day
Things will start new.

Until that day comes
I will push forward
When I can not cope
The God who is always there
Will reach down
Forward, He will carry me.

I know I am forgiven
For all I have done wrong.
Please help me Jesus
to be Your servant
And on the day of Judgement
You will call me brother.

To my friends and family
I say thank you.
You have never left me
Always there
In Solidarity.

But to God.
You’ve had Jesus there
From the very Beginning.
All that happens
In in Your will.
Thank you for choosing me.
