You lift me to the sky
When I’m flat on the ground
You put me on a high
When I’m all the way down
And when trouble comes around
Trying to blow up the spot
You look it in the eye and say I think not
Tell your heart I love you
I love you, yes I do
Tell your heart I need you
You need to know its true
Don’t nobody in the world love you like I do
You make me feel like a trillion bucks
When I don’t even have a dime
You put a smile on my face
In a time I could be crying
And when negative comes around
With nothing good to say
You give it a stare that makes it get the hell away
Tell your heart I love you
I love you, yes I do
Tell your heart I need you
You…

Sound needs a medium to travel, something to bounce off, and since space is known as an empty vacuum, we shouldn’t be able to hear anything, right? Sound does exist in the form of electromagnetic vibrations that pulsate in similar wavelengths, according to NASA.
In the quest to determine whether space is an empty, soundless vacuum, NASA designed special instruments that could record these electromagnetic vibrations, and transferred them into sounds our ears could hear. The result is astonishing.
“Through specially designed instruments, the NASA Voyager, INJUN 1, ISEE 1, and HAWKEYE space probes used plasma wave antenna to record the vibrations all within the range of human hearing (20-20,000 Hz).
“The recorded sounds are the complex interactions of charged electromagnetic particles from the Solar Wind, ionisphere, and planetary magnetosphere.
“The recordings include, Saturn’s rings, Miranda, Neptune, Voice of Earth, Saturn, Jupiter, IO, Rings of Uranus, Song of Earth…

Mihran Kalaydjian Mino Playing Marry me, My Love
Melody: Marry me, My Love
Lyrics: Carla Dawn Dunlap
Music Arrangements: Edward Khoury
Pianist: Mihran Kalaydjian ” Mino”
Record Labels: Paramount Studios
“Marry me, My Love.”
He spoke as the syrup ~ of his accent,
Gathered at the base ~ where her heart abides,
The holiest words ~ angel’s wings can covet,
From the well spring ~ of transparent sighs,
Soft petals of a poppie’s ~ regatta romance,
It’s hope hanging on ~ smoke at her thighs,
Sugary passion’s ~ diving desires,
Rose tinged ~ phaery tales implied,
Where the grapes ~ dream of quenching,
The deep thirst ~ of the wine,
The wine ~ sated moon shining,
Only cries ~ for “Yes, my Darling ever,”
” I shall be only thine”
Melody: She Left Me Alone

She left me and left me alone, she forgot the man she loved; she hurt me and hurt my life.
She left me, she forgot the man she loved, and she hurt me and hurt my life
The love is in my heart for you
It was found there, unconditional and true,
I flutter in the seventh heavens clouds
The lands of pink roses and sugar mounds,
The key to my heart has rested there,
Bursts of heat and sticky sweat love fill the air,
My lungs filled with the scent of love,
And you giving soul lifting me above.
I took these photos years back when visiting Barcelona (Spain). I am admiring Antoni Gaudí’s works and I hope to visit all his works in Spain. It’s an ambitious plan but worth to consider as most of his buildings are photogenic.
The church Sagrada Família is perhaps his most significant work that has to be completed. The construction began in 1882 led by architect Francisco de Paula del Villar. He abandoned the project due to some disagreements that later in 1883, the project was handed over to Antonio Gaudí. It became his lifetime project. The church was also called as the Cathedral of the Poor and financed entirely by donations. Gaudí himself said: “The expiatory church of La Sagrada Família is made by the people and is mirrored in them.”
At my first sight the church looked alike a huge cave with lava materials with its outer walls decorated by…

The most famous church in Valencia (Spain) is located in Plaza de Reina, the Cathedral of Valencia. It was built in late 1230-ish with Gothic and mix of Barque architecture styles. It was curiosity that brought us to visit the Cathedral. Curiosity to see the Holy Chalice in the Cathedral that was believed as the true Holy Grail. The chalice was dated from the first century. Unfortunately my curiosity was unanswered. The Cathedral was celebrating St. Assisi feast day with a mass liturgy service. I managed to take some pictures inside but sincerely I did not feel comfortable to do so. The Cathedral was packed with people – a mix of tourists and the residents, those who just sightseeing like us and those who wanted to follow the liturgy service. Dutchie and I felt like disturbing the service, so our visit was very brief.
We continued walking around Plaza de…

Location: Coronado Island, San Diego
Love Me Sheri Bessi
When I am with you, I am giddy, youthful, like
savoring expensive dark chocolate; I’m satisfied.
Smiling from ear to ear just looking at you.
There’s never a dull moment with you; exciting.
When you speak, your gorgeous voice sounds like
music, causing chills to literally go up and
down my spine, moments to treasure captured
in a locket draping me forever.
A pearl inside the shell, such a rarity,
we were destined to be, I love you, you love me.
If there’s a clash there’s no crash, we ride,
joy splashes across our lives; magically.
When you caress me, I’m secure; a cashmere
blanket, I wear it with…

Today I’m sharing with you an unusual interview. For the first time, I’m not featuring an author, but a musician. You may have seen Mihran Kalaydjian hanging about and leaving comments. I listened to his music and was fascinated by it. So, I decided to find out about this musician who has such a passion for reading!
Hi Mihran, it’s good to have you here. Your music style combines east and west. Would you like to tell us more about you and your music? What inspires you?
This is also a difficult question, as whatever I might think of it may not have any relation to what someone hears.
Playing the piano has always been one of my greatest passions. During my childhood, while being influenced by other masters of music, pianists and composers, I started teaching myself to play, developing my own style over a span of 25…
