Wozza's Place...: Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy (Cat Stevens)

Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy (Cat Stevens)

I have a post on http://googoogarjoob.blogspot.co.nz/ that my Wozza's Place blogosperists may be interested in.

It features a recording (yes - a record!) my dad made in 1967.

The actual process of putting the audio file on the post tested my skills. I used Evernote to record it off my speakers at home, then transferred it to an MP3 file using OpenDrive.

I really wanted the sound recording (okay, yes - audio file) to be on the blog so the whole post is rather cool! Technology can be great!

Love and peace - Graham Purdy's eldest son.

A folly

The Master says:

Write. Whether it's a letter or a diary or a few jottings as you talk on the phone, just write. Writing brings us closer to God and to our fellow humans. If you want to have a better understanding of your role in the world, write. Try to put your whole soul into writing, even if no one else will ever read it or, worse, even if someone does end up reading something you didn't want them to read. The mere fact of writing helps us to organise our thoughts and to see the world around us more clearly. A piece of paper and a pen can perform miracles - assuage sorrows, make dreams reality, take away and restore lost hopes. The word is power. Paulo Coelho
