Learning to Play Feliz Navidad on the Guitar

I LOVE Marty. He is one of the best free guitar teachers on YouTube. He makes guitar playing seem like it's common sense. My mom loves Feliz Navidad by Jose Feliciano, so I decided to learn how to play the easy version on the guitar. To my surprise it is super easy! Here is the video in case you want to give it a try:

Love Is

Abundance of bursting happiness
Never being alone
Surrendering to peace and enlightenment
Feelings that stay within me to enjoy them
Expressing beauty and laughter
Loving unconditionally
Times that are endless
Bliss that is meaningful
Being without fear
Inhaling justice
Caressing empowerment
Love, love just is
You, you are just you
I, I am just me
Together we are just we

Positive Littering

Positive pollutions are solutions for the wounded and isolated heart in all humanity. All individuals want acknowledgment and to know that someone deeply cares for them. If you devote yourself to loving all humanity, then you can express this through small actions. One simple way to show love is to write messages of love by hand. You can cut little strips of paper and put them in secret spots around the local area. Make sure the paper is recyclable and near a trashcan so that the kind individual that notices this "positive litter" may have a chance at reading it and gain an instant lift into their spirit. So, for example, let's say you always walk around the park. Leave a secret note on a local bench where you know strangers are going to sit in, tape a positive message of love and good will to this stranger. Ideally, the stranger will notice this and read it, then have a beautiful day! It's such a simple task. If you want you can write at the bottom of the note, and ask them to share the message to another person. The person then has the choice to leave it there or throw it away in the trash can, either way the chance for expressing love is worth the tiny little effort! Just be careful, do not put any information about yourself (i.e., address, social security, etc...) that may get you in trouble! :D

Connecting by Asking Questions

We all want to connect with others. We desire it, actually. Ask yourself: How can I better understand how this person is feeling and thinking?

Finding the keys to the heart:

1. What do you dream about?
2. What do you cry about? Pains?
3. How is your family? (Wife, children, etc...)
4. What do you sing about? Joy?
5. What are your values? (if they tell you, entered the depth of their heart)
6. What are your strengths?
7. What is your temperament?

These keys change over time...

"Pain" poem

Love of mine be aware of the unknown
It destroys those who remain invisible
Eyes of pain do not dare to watch
Oceans of blood washing through the streams
Of the heart and the soul
Unworthy tears attempt to provide comfort
Only nothing exists
Until the moment, you believe it
You will continue to suffer
You will continue to seek perfection
You will continue to try to feel
Only death exists
One death that will liberate you
One death that will celebrate you
One death that will caress you
Until then my love, let us embrace until the end…
