Do you know, upon casually listening to the classic "Summer Wine" by Nancy Sinatra, there's the verse "… A song that I had only sang to just a few …" – you see, remaining within the metaphorical context of the song: If ever you sing a song that you've only sung to a few, never take on this "Summer Wine" by these "sparkling" ladies or gentlemen. For they can offer you nothing but an expensive illusion, addictive in nature. "An angel's kiss in spring…", hence, is concocted from such musings as this "Summer Wine". Mmm. Spring. Do not old and venerable scriptures report that at the onset of this season, someone/thing visibly perish – Maundy Thursday, was that not the day when someone or something was betrayed? What did this someone actually represent? The embodiment of Good, ladies and gentlemen. Now then, which kind of angel, staying within the song's theme, would be present at such a sorrowful event? Mmm. Therefore, ladies and gentlemen, if glittering ladies and gentlemen cross your path, it's best not to accept anything from them. For you see, truly beautiful ladies and gentlemen do not need to sparkle. Sparkling occurs only when there is something to reflect. Beautiful ladies and gentlemen, however, are those who radiate, thus enabling the sparkle in others. But well, in case you inadvertently happen to have taken something sparkling – there's always Easter Monday. Why is Easter called Easter again? Ah, yes. Derives from "Ostara", which swiftly turned into "East" (at least in German). Now then, if there's All Quiet at the Western Front, what then exists in the East? Ah. Of course. The sunrise. Have you ever heard, by the way: "Goodness! The sun is sparkling so extremely today!" No? Neither have I. The sun simply shines. "But don't look directly into it, or you'll go blind!" – remember? Your grandmother or someone of that ilk used to tell you such things in the past. Better enjoy its warmth - but with care. Sunburn. How does one perceive kinetic energy most healthily? For the kinetic energy of the atoms or molecules of a substance generates thermal energy… "Keep your hands off the stove!" Your mother probably told you that in the past. Keeping your hand slightly away from the plate, and it was quite pleasant. But how do you know that? You FEEL it. So, if you look directly into the sun, your iris contracts to the maximum. You see very little. You are literally blinded by the strength of the sun. That's why many people prefer sparkling things. But consider this: Only "dead" matter can sparkle. And take care of yourself! Once addicted to "Summer Wine," remember that cold turkey leads to delirium tremens. Ends fatally in 20 percent of cases. Like Russian roulette. Click. Nothing happens. Click. Nothing happens. You know you have two more attempts, but three spins. Take care of yourself, preferably with the sun at your back! My contribution to Easter. https://lnkd.in/e-XTwvQe
