Card 3: Completed in Style - Small, Sweet, Soulful


True Friendship (Revisited)

Once in a lifetime
You find a friend
who touches
not only your heart
but also you soul

One in a lifetime
You discover someone
who stand beside you
not over you

Very special people
we can be ourselves with,
talk with, laugh with,
hope with
and believe with...

An Attempt: Card 3 - The Best of Both Worlds

Tonight I am attempting Card 3,
With the accompaniment of The Last Samurai*.
Card 3 is going to be less compact than Card 2,
But with the best of both worlds.
It is going to be fantastic.

*Shakuhachi, flutes, koto, and taiko drums,
Make their presence known throughout the journey,
A reflective duet for flute and strings,
Swelling into an ominous but majestic melody.

Another compelling mix of beauty and violence,
With a delicate koto melody and rolling drums,
Before crashing percussion and sawing strings,
Turn the mood from bittersweet to battle-ready.

"The mind is like a parachute,
it works when it is opened."

Good eh? Ha! Wow...

I have tried with all my heart
to do well."
