EQUILIBRIUM
- shawna ray, today
Is my infatuation
Merely a soul distraction?
Pulled by a wind that's waiting
For you to notice me
I want to be in the groove
With you, drifting by
Equal to librium
No less and no goodbye
Equilibrium
Equilibrium
Free, as you are, I'll love you
As long as you're loving
Constant as one, thou separate
Pure as the light of day
I want to be in the groove
With you, drifting by
Equal to librium
No less and no goodbye
Equilibrium
Equilibrium
Reaching reaction
In forward action
Equal attraction
This give and take
We lift each other
Holding our own as
We love and let love
Staying the change
I want to be in the groove
With you, drifting by
Equal to librium
No less and no goodbye
Equilibrium
Equilibrium
Reaching reaction
In forward action
Equal attraction
This give and take

So this image above is art that was submitted in the search for a human rights logo back in 2011. Sorry I do not know the name of the artist. They chose another logo that is perfect. But I also love this image that reminds me of what I think of in terms of real, lasting love, that is equal and unwavering. This also represents all levels of human interaction, attraction and collaboration. There are certain elements that allow individuals to bond in friendship or work together on a level that allows each person to bring their gifts to the table and by joining together, the multiplied result is greater good and increased value. Every human being has this potential and deserves equal respect. At the same time, there are some who have a certain chemistry or vibration that just seems to fit together.
I have been processing the idea of an equilibrium love, a chemically reactive equivilant. I think a soul mate is not one who completes or changes you. The two remain constant as individuals, though uniting as one. Understanding that all life goes through changes, I have been longing for a pure and unchanging bond that allows two people to love and grow naturally, moving forward together, without taking anything away from the individual.
I have loved to a fault and been loved to a fault. It seems to often be one sided, where one gives more. What I want is an equal. Not someone who is exactly like me. But someone who matches me and feels me. I have no idea what that really means yet. I hope that I will know when I find and feel it. All I know is, I am no longer willing to settle for anything less. I have wasted a lot of time and energy in soul distractions and self sabotage. So I am spending more time asking myself a lot of questions these days. Becoming who I am meant to be. Finding and expressing my true self and finding my own balance from within. That way I will also be open and able to recognize and connect with team and band mates and in this case, hopefully a partner someday to share the journey.

Noted While Watching President Obama Inauguration 2013
Invocation: Myrlie Evers Williams
Lead by example in consideration and favor
Prayer to strengthen us
God make me a blessing
In Jesus name and in the name of all who are holy and right
Find the good and praise it -Alex Haley, author of Roots
Restraint to respect the results
The peaceful transfer of power
Moving- Obama taking the oath with the Bible of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
We are one people, one country
Sonia Sotomayer
57th inaugural
So help me God
Music by James Taylor
President Obama Speech:
Enduring strength
Affirm the promise
What binds us together is not colors of our skin, tenants of our faith or the origins of our name
We hold these truths
Bridge the meaning
A government of and by and for the people
200 years
Liberty and equality
Together
Constants in our character
Collective action
Equip our children for the future
Bring the business
As one nation and one people
This generation has been tested
Economic recovery
Youth, drive, diversity and openness
So long as we seize it together
Out worn programs are inadequate
Our purpose endures
Nation that rewards the effort and determination of every single American
That is what this moment requires
That is what will give real meaning to our creed
Reduce the cost of healthcare and size of our deficit
Invest in the generation that will build its future
We the people
Obligations to all
The path toward sustainable energy sources...we must lead it!
Preserve our planet
Lend meaning to the creed...we the people...do not require perpetual war
We are also heirs of those who earned the peace as well as war
We must carry those lessons into this time as well
We will uphold our values through strength of arms and rule of law.
"We will show the courage to try to resolve our differences with other nations peacefully, not because we are naïve about the dangers we face, but because engagement can more durably lift suspicion and fear"
America will remain the anchor
Support democracy
"We must be a source of hope to the poor, the sick and victims of prejudice not out of mere charity but because the peace of our time requires tolerance and opportunity, human dignity and justice"
All of us are created equal...the star
We cannot walk alone
Carry on what those pioneers began
"For our journey is not complete until our wives, our mothers and daughters can earn a living equal to their efforts"
"Our journey is not complete until our gay brothers and sisters are treated like anyone else under the law"
"If we are truly created equal then surely the love we commit to one another must be equal as well"
"Our journey is not complete until we find a way to welcome the striving hopeful immigrants who still see America as a land of opportunity"
All our children know that they are cared for and cherished and always safe from harm
It does not mean we all have to agree
It does require us to act in our time
Decisions are upon us and we cannot afford delay
"We cannot mistake absolutism for principle or substitute spectacle for politics or treat name calling as reasoned debate"
We must act knowing that our work will be imperfect
Advance the timeless spirit
The oath I have sworn, like others...an oath to God and country, not party or faction
We must faithfully execute that pledge during the duration of our service
Common effort and common purpose
Thank you, God Bless you and may he forever bless these United States of America

Kelly Clarkson, US Marine Band- wow!
Poet Richard Blanco
One Today
A simple truth..
One light..
A silent story...
My face, your face
All of us as vital as the one light we move through..
Sorrow that won't explain
Many prayers but one light
Light into the faces
One ground, our ground
Mingled by one wind, our breath
The unexpected songbird
Hear the doors we open carrying our lives
without prejudice
One sky
Thank the work of our hands
Giving thanks for a love that knew how to love you back
Hope- a new constellation
- beautiful!

Benediction Luis Leon
Gracious and eternal God
Citizens of a beloved community
With your blessing we know that we can break down the walls that separate us
We can renew the ties
With your blessing we can see each other created in your image, a unit of God's grace
With a spirit of gratitude and humility
Prophet Micah- what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, love kindness and always walk humbly with God
Beyonce- National Anthem- Always Awesome!! Love her!
Cabinet
Nominations that I know will be dealt with with great dispatch
1600 on the platform

Declaration of conscience
Parade...
Unite as a nation
I love seeing a strong, healthy family and marriage with real love
He introduces his wife "She inspires me every day.
"She makes me a better man"

Wish I could have been there. With you in Spirit
Goodnight
