Just trying to come to terms with the anger and frustration...
It's a beautiful day and my friend can't enjoy it because he is locked in a cage.
At every turn I run into aggravating, infuriating and awful truths that I am powerless to change.

To hell with the work I am up against a deadline to finish. Can't get the guy to return my call... he sends an e-mail asking when he can expect the completed project. Well, when you call me as I asked, I'll fill you in on the obstacles that aren't of my making, that I am working to overcome.

Time to spend time with the people that matter in my life and try and have a little fun.

I wish the same for the rest of you.

It's the kindred souls that make this life worth living.
Peace brother.

Maybe this will help (that's what I wrote it for):

MINUET IN FREE  ("Minuet in G"—probably Christian Petzold (not J. S. Bach!))                                                                                  COPYRIGHT AP 2011 by Sam A. Robrin or whoever the hell it is who writes these things.  Go ahead and use it (hey,I lifted the melody), but if you make a little money on it, I want some!
Bach- minuet in G major

THE Tree of Liberty
Must be
Seeded, and watered fre-
      quently,
   Tend-
    ed with strength to bend,
    So it's not expend-
    ed in rigid end-
             ing.

Leafy and richly gree-
n All the
Seasons of its gene-
      ity—
   Though
   You won't see them, know:
   Generations grow
   From seeds it will sow.

THE key to liberty:
To be
Free, spread the blessings e-
      qually.
   Eyes
   Firmly on the prize,
   We can realize
   Dreams within aris-
                                  ing.

E.g.: a guarantee
To de-
cree property and free-
      dom se-
   cured,
   Firmly reassured;
   Welcome all aboard
   To serene accord.

   Knee-
   Deep in liberty!
   No authority
   Forcing us to flee
   Slavery.
         When we learn to value each other,
   We'll all be free.

      Live!
            Love yourself!
      Give
            Of yourself!
                  Be the change that you want to see.
                        When we learn to value each other,
                  We will all be free.

   Drea-
   my?  Well, that may be.
   Keep it up and see:
   We can live ire-
   nically.
         When we learn to value each other,
   We'll all be free.

      Live!
            Love yourself!
      Give
            Of yourself!
                  Be the change that you want to see.
                        When we learn to value each other,
                  We will all be free.

John

Metta = "The Pali word metta is a multi-significant term meaning loving-kindness, friendliness, goodwill, benevolence, fellowship, amity, concord, inoffensiveness and non-violence. The Pali commentators define metta as the strong wish for the welfare and happiness of others.  .  . "
