Auld Lang Syne -Dougie MacLean (With Lyrics-English Translation)12/31/2023 update in description
“
复活节的早晨敲响了新的音节，音乐继续演奏，虽然音调较高，但音调相同，旋律也相同。人类的生命也是如此。”
“坟墓不是我们的终结目标。”随着凡人获得永生，条件和环境必然会改变，但生命本身将是同一种生命，在这里是可见的和暂时的事物，在那里是无形的和永恒的事物。
Jesus did not often speak of "death"; that was too human a word. He preferred the softer names of "sleep" or "exodus," thus making death the quickener of life, or likening it to a triumphal march from bondage to liberty. Nor was "the Valley of the Shadow" to Jesus a strange, unfamiliar place. He knew all its secrets, all its windings. It was His own territory, where His will was supreme.
the Easter morning struck a fresh bar, and the music went on, in the higher spaces, it is true, but in the same key and in the same sweet strain. And just so is it with all human life";
"The Grave is not our goal." Conditions and circumstances will of necessity change, as the mortal puts on immortality, but the life itself will be one and the same life, here amid things visible and temporal, and there amid the invisible and eternal.
《夜行西行》是贝丽尔·马卡姆 1942 年出版的一本回忆录，记录了她 20 世纪初在肯尼亚（当时的英属东非）长大的经历，后来她在那里成为了一名赛马教练和丛林飞行员。这本书被认为是户外文学的经典之作，出版后不久就被收录到美国武装部队版书籍中。[1] 2004 年，《国家地理探险》杂志将其列为 100 本最佳探险书籍第 8 名。[2]
I have learned that if you must leave a place that you have lived in and loved and where all your yesteryears are buried deep, leave it any way except a slow way, leave it the fastest way you can. Never turn back and never believe that an hour you remember is a better hour because it is dead. Passed years seem safe ones, vanquished ones, while the future lives in a cloud, formidable from a distance. The cloud clears as you enter it. I have learned this, but like everyone, I learned it late. ~Beryl Markham , West with the Night
West with the Night is a 1942 memoir by Beryl Markham, chronicling her experiences growing up in Kenya (then British East Africa) in the early 1900s, leading to celebrated careers as a racehorse trainer and bush pilot there. It is considered a classic of outdoor literature and was included in the United States' Armed Services Editions shortly after its publication.[1] In 2004, National Geographic Adventure ranked it number 8 in its list of the 100 best adventure books.[2]

Some of you have spent the last several months asking God when and why. I know that you believed in your heart that things would be different by now. I pray that this month is a month of healing, suddenly, and restoration to all that you have been through these past few months. Amen.
