A PASSING GLIMPSE (Robert Frost)

 

I often see flowers from a passing car

That are gone before I can tell what they are.

 

I want to get out of the train and go back

To see what they were beside the track.

 

I name all the flowers I am sure they weren't;

Not fireweed loving where woods have burnt--

 

Not bluebells gracing a tunnel mouth--

Not lupine living on sand and drouth.

 

Was something brushed across my mind

That no one on earth will ever find?

 

Heaven gives it glimpses only to those

Not in position to look too close.

Street Signs as Folk Art

800 Days Daily DuoLingo Fabulous Fun French Language Learning Lessons - IMRAN™

Finally, a lot later, but a tiny bit closer to another life goal. 800 days streak of learning French. How and why did that take so long?

Bedsides my late mother’s Urdu language, my late father’s Punjabi, and English learned as a student in Pakistan, I’ve always hungered to learn more languages. As a pre-teen, I was making some progress learning very basic German from Teach Yourself books in the mid 1970s. I won’t mention here BASIC, Pascal, FORTRAN, C, or C++ type programming languages I had also learned!

But then real tough Cambridge school certificate, then Cambridge A’ levels, and later professional electronics engineering degree studies left no time that was taken up being a student political leader in the 1980s. An engineering classmate from Lahore, Amir, did learn French at the Alliance Français and got me hooked on French movies around 1983.

In 1987 (West Germany) became the first country I visited, and fell in love with, followed by France. So, despite my love for Germany and the German people, French became my language learning goal.

Then 30 years of life, and history, flew by. I bought all the books, tapes, CDs, DVDs, and even apps, as the technology of language learning evolved. I even got the DuoLingo app when it first came out. But time remained the constraint.

Until the pandemic. When everyone was asking others what Netflix series to binge-watch, I took advantage of the time to get and spend time walking with my two German Shepherd Dogs, took off 32 pounds of weight I had put in 32 years living in USA, started work on my second music album, and more.

But what I am so happy I was able to pull off into a consistent habit was doing at least 10-minutes or more of French learning every day. Every day, at least once, before midnight.

By the grace of God I just hit 800 days of consecutive learning days, and my 75th week streak in the highest Diamond League of DuoLingo’s gamification system (which really incentivizes the competitive spirit in me).

Can I have a real conversation with my French neighbor, CFO of a major FinTech, Julien? … Pas vraiment, mais peut-être un peu…. But, my life’s journey to be a Learn It All continues. Je vous parlerai (en anglais, français, Urdu/hindi, Punjabi) bientôt!

No matter the language that you speak.

Or the colour of the skin.

 

Its your choice. This God that you look out and seek.

What really matters is the love the kindness and good that can flow from within.

 

Hatred is like a Cancer it festers deep inside.

So show the good inside of you Dont get swept away with the tide.

   

Keep on Clickin.

Ugly ducklings.No way.

Two beautiful Swans in the making.

     

"examine her for motive

investigate the scene

in the ever present danger

keep the holster at your hip".

Rocket is under pressure to come off the sofa because the cover is not on. His response is to avoid eye contact and stare off into the corner of the room. Clever clogs!!

"Its cute in a way, till you cannot speak

And you leave to have a cigarette, your knees get weak

An escape is just a nod and a casual wave

Obsessed about it, heavy for the next two days

 

It's only just a crush, it'll go away

It's just like all the others it'll go away

Or maybe this is danger and you just don't know

You pray it all away but it continues to grow"

Interpretation of Photograph:

The stage is the background.

Jazz improvisation is the foreground.

 

What is Jazz Improvisation?

 

In Jazz, improvisation isn't a matter of just making any ol' thing up. Jazz, like any language, has its own grammar and vocabulary. There's no right or wrong, just some choices that are better than others.

---- Wynton Marsalis

 

Improvisation is the ability to create something very spiritual, something of one's own.

---- Sonny Rollins

 

In fifteen seconds the difference between composition and improvisation is that in composition you have all the time you want to decide what to say in fifteen seconds, while in improvisation you have fifteen seconds.

---- Steve Lacy

 

Ahhh - those Jazz guys are just makin' that stuff up!

---- Homer Simpson

 

Jazz is the ultimate example of our potential as human beings.

---- Patrick Bartley, alto sax player

 

Jazz is the music that washes away the dust of everyday life.

---- Art Blakely, legendary jazz drummer

 

The reward for playing jazz is that you get to play jazz.

---- John Lewis, legendary jazz pianist and composer

 

Music is the strongest form of magic.

---- Marilyn Manson
