Grazie, Signore
" Amadeus was a remarkable film centered on two powerful and contrasting figures: Antonio Salieri, court composer to the Austrian emperor, and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, a brash and conceited young genius. "Someone described his life as wine, women, and song. And he didn't sing much." The limited, uninspired Salieri lives with a raging jealousy for … Continue reading Grazie, Signore
Welcome to 2015 – Journey
Welcome to 2015 my prayer is a deeper sense of God's Mercy and of God's Creative sense. As I read this first sentence I am in awe of how these are the same thing, God is all One and in my humanness I see this as different pieces. For me as a human it is … Continue reading Welcome to 2015 – Journey

Then it is important to realise that … Continue reading Intimacy
