late Saturday night at the end of April 2011

One of my favorite vintage songs about living in New York. Finally found it!

Love the lyrics! So true!

You gotta have a strong heart to live in New York
You gotta have strong lungs to live in New York
You gotta have a strong skin to live in New York
You gotta have long johns to live in New York
You gotta take lotta heart to live in New York
It's gonna take a lotta soul to live in New York
You got to have a lotta cash to live in New York
You've got to have a lotta dash to live in New York

Love this one too: Tom Tom Genius of Love

When I was a little girl in Jamaica there was an elderly couple, friends of my dad, who were kind to me. I remember them both very well and tenderly, even though I can't remember their names. I only remember that she wore Blue Grass perfume. For some reason that memory has stayed with me my entire life.

Interesting social communication concept in Japan for true self and false self:

Honne and Tatemae

Honne could be defined as the true desires, opinions and thoughts of each individual; while Tatemae refers to how the social obligations and the opinions of each individual adapt to the society in general. It is the “face” that a Japanese person shows in public.
