When Blue turns into Orange...

UNITY

I found this beautiful image, named «UNITY», inside a powerpoint presentation someone re-sent to my Mother, with no credits to the author. It is an awsome image, and represents so well the so much needed and wanted UNITY between people in Africa and all over the World!!! I dedicate it to my Friend Koluki!!! Kandandos, my Friend!!!

ADENDA: our friend VERONICA BENESI kindly informed us that Monica Stewart is the author of this really beautiful image! She is an African-American artist who resides in Northern California's Bay Area. In Veronica's blog, she has posted "Women who look ahead", that is another of her artworks.

DE VOLTA AS TERRAS DE MADIBA

Estarei aqui baseada por algum tempo, trabalhando em algo que nao me vai permitir blogar regularmente.

Mas tentarei tanto quanto possivel manter-vos postados.

Lullabies and Cradle Songs from the Motherland

Finding this CD in the middle of millions of CDs at Cascais Shopping (a shopping mall near Cascais which I rarely visit) was a mere coincidence... or ARE there really coincidences in Life?... So I bought the last ones left to offer during Christmas (kept one for myself) and would also have bought the other CD of the series («African Lullaby») if available.

«A collection of emotional and moving songs from all over Africa, some familiar and some refreshingly new, performed by the most prestigious African musicians. Lyrics in various languages, lifting and comforting. Music using tradidional instruments, this recording will warm the hearts of every child and everyone who was ever a child...»

Will be posting during the next weeks the lyrics of the songs and their translation into English Language as taken from this CD's beautiful booklet.

Season's Greetings!!!

HAPPY FESTIVE SEASON!

SIM, ESTAMOS DE VOLTA!

WE ARE BACK!!! ESTAMOS DE VOLTA!!!
