I have many memorable music which reminds me of different times of my experience.  Today, I want to talk about memorable music for me when I was around 26 years old in 1989.  When I was 26, I flew to Sydney in Australia and was staying in an Aussie family's house for about 1 month and a half.  It was my first time to live in another country ( outside of Japan ) and it was one of the most unforgettable memories in my life.  Since my childhood, living in other countries was my dream and Australia was one of the countries I was interested in.   I was hearing about an Aussie family I was going to stay with, they were a 62 years old marriage couple , and when I went there, I noticed they are a big family.  Their kids appeared one after another , total of 6 kids who were from 18 to 26 at that time.  Plus 19 years old daughter has her kid who was 3 years old girl.  and 21 years old daughter was living there with her husband ( 21 ) with their baby boy.  My English

https://www.flickr.com/photos/sarairachel/6647350979 Inspiring story about Buddha , " Hearing that Buddha was enlightened , a man traveled far to see him. But this man was full of hatred.  When he found the Buddha, he swore at him, cursed him, and called him names day and night.  The Buddha continued to meditate quietly with a warm smile on his face. After several days, the man grew tired, as he hadn't broken down the Buddha at all. Finally, one morning the Buddha called the man to him. The Buddha said, " Let me ask you a question.  If a man brings me a gift and I refuse to accept it, to whom does the gift belong ? " The man thought for a minute and said, " To the one who gave it." The Buddha smiled and nodded.   Then he said, " Then if you come to me with the gift of hatred and I refuse to accept it, to whom does the hatred belong ? " The man gasped, " To me." After that, the man became a follow

I really don't remember when and where I first heard this song   "The end of the world by Skeeter Davis" , but I surely knew this song.  While we were watching oldies music on TV, suddenly my old tapes came to my mind which were tapes that were recorded by my friend who was 10 years older than me, when I was around 22 years old.  Fortunately I was keeping the tape until now and soon I found it and the song we have been repeatedly listening to is that song.  When I checked about the song and the singer, it was a big hit in 1963 !  Which happens to be the year when we were born.  We feel this song is like an ocean of emotion, super touching.  There are other singers who also sang the song but we both felt the original singer Skeeter Davis 's singing has the deepest emotion and is very touching.  Honestly, I wasn't listening to the lyrics until recently, I was touched by the melody of this music, because I felt it's so beautiful.  and her sin

Recently we've been into oldies music, especially from 1940s to 1980s music ! Around midnight here, there is an oldies music station on TV and Ray has been enjoying watching it almost every night.  And since a few days ago, some of the music I heard from it has been spinning in my head,  and one of them is Saturday night by Bay City Rollers which was a huge hit in 1976 !   Bay City Rollers - Saturday Night ('76)      It's so great to easily be able to watch an old generation's music and the musicians singing live !    And I appreciate modern high technology which allows this. The Bay City Rollers were a Scottish pop music band who were often wearing checkered design with 1/8 length wide pants on the stage.  They all looked cool and adult at that time but when I watched it now,  I felt they all look so cute and young with young voices.  I only knew 1976 to 1978's members.  Ray ( my husband ) had heard this music on the radio a few
