Yup, didn’t care for the last header so i created a new one from the photos below instead which is of a building on the campus of the University of Quebec a Monteal, edited for effect; i like this one better.

A NEW HEADER

Welcome to the new header for Spirit Voice. Beautiful isn’t it. It was taken near the Grande Biblioteque in Montreal. I hope to be posting more. I am doing better and look forward to blogging more.

L M MONTGOMERY AND ADULT/CHILD EQUALITY

X-mas blogging: I unfortunately did not do as much blogging for christmas as i hoped, but i will blog again next year.

Kindred Spirits
I wanted to touch on the subject of Kindred Spirits today and specifically on the person who popularized the term Lucy Maude Montgomery. I have just finished reading Emily of New Moon, one of my favourite books, and i realized that both the author and i have very similar ideas about the value of children. In both Anne of Green Gables and Emily of New Moon a child comes into adults lives and brings more life and love to them.

Children and Adults are Equals
Children are equals to adults. We are not there betters, we are their helpers and guides and they are love bringer’s and life bringer’s. Adults, i believe, can be friends with their children. It may be a different form from other friendships, but it can be a friendship none the less. Because the author has similar ideas to mine on children i feel even more we are kindred spirits.

I’M BACK FOR X-mas

I’m Back
Hi everyone. I’m back for christmas and really hope to keep blogging weekly from this point on.

Carol Covers
This year i thought i would share with you some of my favourite covers for christmas carols-although technically all sung christmas carols could be considered covers what i am referring to here is people who sing well know carols, but play with them in fun musical ways. Listen to the ones i choose and see what you think.

Kendall Payne
My first pick is Kendall Paynes cover of O Come, O Come Emmanuel. It is a funky, wonderful rendition of one of my favourite carols.

I’M BACK PLUS SOME MAGIC

Sorry about the long hiatus. I am feeling better now.

Today as i was out and about i saw a mother with her two sons. Seeing the way she treated them as individuals, with their own opinions, and her attentiveness to them and her liking of them as i sat and waited to get my hair cut was Real Magic.

Love Lights our way through the Night

I share One Heart sung by Celine Dion because the line ‘love lights your way through the night’ reminds me, whan i hear it, that God is with us when we are struggling or going through hard times. Yeah!

One Heart
Written by John Shanks, Kara DioGuardi

One heart you are following…
You can run
And you can begin
In a place
Where you don’t fit in
‘Cause love will find a way
When you’re down
You can start again
Turn around
Anything you’re in
Love will find a place
If you got…

One heart you are following
One dream that keeps you wandering
Love lights your way through the night
One wish that keeps you trying
What’s your silver lining
Love lights your way through the nightYou can fall a thousand times
You can feel like you’ve lost your mind
But love will find a way
And a minute
Can change your life
And a moment can make it right
Love will find a place

ChorusEverybody needs something to hold onto
(Repeat)
If you got…
One heart you are following
One dream that keeps you wandering
Love lights your way through the night
One wish that keeps you trying
What’s your silver lining
Love lights your way through the night
Is it your own
Is it your own

New Header

I have added a new header to Spirit Voice. It is a picture that i took myself and is a part to a recently built building at the University of McGill in Montreal that i really like-partly because of all the blue used in the design. Hope you like it.

A Different Christian Group

asonn — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 16:38:30 +0000

I am think about at some point starting a group that would be a place for christians, non-christians who are interested in finding out more and people in between. It would be a group for those who shy away from the regular church because of bad experience or because the form that regular church takes is not a form that fits the person God made them. It would be a much more mysterious group-enjoying the mystery of things and not trying to define things so much. It would be a place where people would come to meet God and get to know Him better, but in a not so traditional way.

What form would the group take? There would be a shared meal, there would be the central thing for that meeting and maybe a time to share ones perspective. There would not be arguing about a persons views, this would be a place were you could safely express your real thoughts, feelings about things and be accepted. It would be a place of patience and kindness.

What of the things-well we might
watch a movie,
read some poetry,
listen to some music,
watch some tv,
listen to guitar music,
go out into to nature,
read some bible passages
go to a music festival,
and see how God speaks to us through these things, and maybe share what has touched us.

More posts to come on this-please do comment-encouragement and ideas welcome.
