Music ~ Natural Vibrations

Music is a beautiful thing.  Life is a beautiful thing.  People and relationships are beautiful things.  If there is anything positive I can tell my readers and others out there, is be grateful for it all.

Gratitude.  The meaning is:  the quality of being thankful; readiness to show appreciate for and to return kindness.  In a post originally published November 18th, "Kismet, My Friend", I said something, that applies to a recent debacle of a misconstrued tweet perception which resulted in being blocked by a tweep I considered a dear (e)friend:

"I am not going to wish, pray or curse the universe for not giving me what I want.  I am going to thank for everything given.  Every experience, every word spoken or written, every emotion felt, will be soaked in and cherished."

I firmly believe "everything happens for a reason".  We may not know at the time things are happening why, but somewhere along your life journey it is revealed to you.  I already have my real life stuff I've been dealing with for twelve plus years, and now, as disheartening as it is, that in a place I thought I wouldn't experience negativity, I have.  It goes to show you, that as you go through life, expect the unexpected, but be prepared to know how to deal and cope with it in a positive way.

With that being said, I wanted to share 'positive' vibrations via music.  In Hawaii, there are 'Hawaiian Radio Stations' - they play Hawaiian music (obviously, duh TCA),  KCCN FM 100 and Hawaiian Kine 105. They play Hawaiian, Reggae and Jawaiian (blends Hawaiian and Reggae). Check out their sites and listen live!

A particular band, Natural Vibrations or 'Natty Vibes', fondly called "Hawaii's Original Party Band" - they are the most popular and acclaimed band from Hawaii.  They have a song I wanted to share, because the lyrics include 'boto boto suk suk' (which in actuality, 'boto' and suk suk' are of a Filipino nature - I know, Filipino is one of the several ethnicities of my genetic make up). 

"One on One" was originally released in Hawaii 1998 (16 years ago!), my younger sister and brother always sang it - which is why Crazy and I say it to one another - yes it references sex, but we would say this line for funsies - the song is funny to us because we're from Hawaii.  We understand what the song means.  Well, anyone can guess what it means but that's neither here nor there.

So without further ado, for your viewing/listening pleasure, here's "One on One" by Natural Vibrations...

Oh, one more thing, it is a repeat of what I said in my last blog post, but I still believe it to be true no matter what any fine individual would like to say about it:

For whatever reason you are on Twitter, remember that we’re there together.  Focus on laughing, smiling, joking, silliness and peace.  You have a choice to be there.  Make it matter in a positive way (Hey, in my opinion, vulgarity and perversion IS positive stuff on Twitter! LoL).  Or you really don’t need to be there.  Go to Facebook.  *GRINS*

And to add to that:

1) Being "Blocked" doesn't mean anything.  It doesn't hurt anyone.  It is a 'preference', a choice everyone on Twitter has.

2) There are no "rules" except to have FUN.

3) I friend/follow who I want to friend/follow, doesn't make me or any one antisocial.  Makes me human.  Free will.  We all have it.  What gives anyone the right to label other people anyhow?

Word?  Word.

...boto boto suk suk!
