Miho's favorites

There are so many great pianists in the world. However when it comes to Franz Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody No.2, which is one of my favorite Piano compositions, it was difficult to find a pianist who can play it in a way which filled my satisfaction.   and I've been looking for a great pianist for that piece.  My husband and my taste are often the same so he was also looking for it.  and finally, finally we found a very gifted pianist !  Her name is Tiffany Poon .  She is definitely a genius pianist.      Tiffany Poon - Hungarian Rhapsody No.2     Very expressive and unbelievable talent.  We both feel so great to listen to this performance.  Her performance is very dynamic, with many ups and downs, flowing with emotion based on the music story.  Maybe her way of performance matches with our image of this composition's story ? and matches with our taste ?  And whe...

This is my new favorite book ,    " Quest for Truth, 100 insights that could change your life" by Darryl Anka  According to Darryl Anka's official website, this book was newly reissued.  ( It was released in 1997 first time ) So happy the book is available and I was able to purchase this book! The 1997 version of the book is sold in amazon at the price of $741.01 !!! and this reissued version is sold with a starting price of $309.30 for a new book, and also for a used book starting price is from $146.32 !!!   I feel it's very valuable information, and in the Bashar store's website, it's selling for $22.95 plus shipping fee . So while it's still available in their site, we purchased it from there quickly after I discovered it. There is so much interesting information from Bashar from the Essassani planet in the book. For people who are familiar with Bashar's presentations on DVD or CD or youtube, or who are also readers of N...

I noticed that I haven't been updating the lists of my favorite things since 2006 when I started this blog. I can't believe it already past more than 9 years, almost 10 years since I started this blog ! I never imagined or thought about I would continue the blog so long at that time.  I just wanted to express my feelings of what I love, because it made me feel great. and I got many new favorites since 2006, so I think it's time to update it. Thinking and imaging about our favorite things improves our feeling and frequency level. Also I can know who I really  am through it.  These are mine,  what's yours ?
