I’LL GO WITH YOU
When I’m alone
I dream on the horizon
and words fail;
yes, I know there is no light
in a room where the sun is absent,
if you are not with me, with me.
At the windows
show everyone my heart
which you set alight;
enclose within me
the light you
encountered on the street.
I’ll go with you,
to countries I never
saw and shared with you,
now, yes, I shall experience them.
I’ll go with you
on ships across seas
which, I know,
no, no, exist no longer;
wjth you I shall experience them.
When you are far away
I dream on the horizon
And words fail,
and, Yes, I know
that you are with me;
you, my moon, are here with me,
my sun, you are here with me,
with me, with me, with me.
I’ll go with you,
To countries I never
Saw and shared with you,
now, yes, I shall experience them.
I’ll go with you
On ships across seas
which, I know,
no, no, exist no longer,
with you I shall experience them again.
I’ll go with you
On ships across seas
Which, I know,
No, no, exist no longer;
with you I shall experience them again.
I’ll go with you,
I with you.

Andrea Bocelli- Con te Partiro
Andrea Bocelli - il Mare Calmo Della Sera
THE CALM EVENING SEA
I do not know
what fidelity is,
the reason for my song
which cannot resist
such sweet tears
that changed my love.
And if
also the rising of the sun
were to find us still together
please say no;
it also makes fools of the wise,
love, my love.
If within the soul
you were music,
if the sun were within you,
if you really were
within my soul,
then, yes, I could hear
in my silence
the calm evening sea.
But,
that image of you
so lost in my eyes
brought the truth to me;
it loves what it does not have,
love, my love.
If within the soul
you were music,
if the sun were within you,
if you really were
within my soul,
then, yes, I could hear
the calm evening sea,
in my silence
the calm evening sea.

Body Language
posts by Deaf Smith
I've picked the ones below over the years. I don't claim to have 'discovered' them, but they all are quite vaild.
Head attitudes:
Head neutral = Neutral and open attitude
Tilted back = Superior attitude
Tilted down = Negative and Judgmental attitude.
Tilted to one side = Interest
Body Postures:
Leaning back and closed = Lack of interest.
Leaning back and open = Contemplation and cautious interest.
Leaning forward and closed = Potential aggressive behavior .
Leaning forward and open = Interest and agreement .
Gestures:
Hands on hips (confrontational gesture).
Rolling shirt sleeves up (A rather obvious sign of high stress and anxiety.. Getting ready to fight).
Looking away (Ignoring you. He is done with whatever you have to say. Possibly looking for witnesses, escape routes, preparing to fight or run).
Walking away (This is read as a sign of contempt for you, a sign the subject is done listening to you).
Things to look for:
Head angle indicates fight or flight.
1) A dropped chin means fight.
2) A raised chin means flight.
Confirming gesture of flight:
- a fixed stare.
- brushing hair back.
- rubbing chin or face.
If flight, look for darting eyes.
Watch area around neck for possible attack (upper body muscles.)
“Happy feet” could be a strong indicator of flight.
When you see a threat potential, call attention to it. May get him to reconsider threatening action.
Short, choppy gestures/verbal communication, the threat is real.
Hands inward/anger inward; hands outward/anger outward.
Palms in - mad at himself.
Palms out - mad at you.
Watch deadly hands; drying of hands, hands stroking to get dry for attack.
Knuckle-popping, loosening of fingers, flexing of fingers. Then watch setting of hands.
Multiple gestures and deadly gaze mean likely trouble.
The face can be a barometer of a subject’s intentions.
-Flared nostrils, setting of jaw indication of nervousness, anger.
-Eyes wider during periods of intense emotion.
-Mouth breathing indication of nervousness, anger.
-Mouth tense, lips down at corners.
-Raised eyebrows.
-Red face.
-Underneath eyes opposite rest of skin surface.
-Fixed, dilated stare.
Assault not immiinent but possible if you see this below:
-Face is red, twitching, jerking.
-Head, neck, shoulders go back (person making themselves look bigger).
-Lips pushed forward bearing teeth (you’ve seen the same thing in dogs before they attack).
-Breathing is fast and shallow.
-Beads of sweat appear about the face/neck.
-Thousand mile glare.
-Exaggerated movements.
-Finger pointing
-Head pecking (you see this alot with drug users.)
Assault is imminent:
-Directs anger towards other inanimate items such as tables, chairs, walls.
-Face goes from red to white ( during a physical confrontation the blood will leave the surface of the body and pool to the big muscles and internal organs of the body needed for survival), The person is either going to fight or run.
-Lips tighten over teeth.
-Breathing is fast and deep.
-Change of stance, their body blades and shoulder drops.
-Hands closed into fist (not uncommon to see whites of knuckles due to hands being so tight.)
-Bobbing up and down or rocking back and forth on feet (this is the bodies way to hide/ mask the initial movement of a first strike.)
-Target glace (here you will see your opponent look to where he is going to hit, or where he is going to run/escape.)
More on Assault is imminent:
-Putting head and shin down (body wants to protect airway, this action does so to a degree.)
-Eye brows brought forward into a frown (again the body wants to naturally protect the visual system, this action does so to a degree.)
-Stops all movements/ freezes in place.
-Dropping center or lowering of body (no different that a cat or dog getting ready to pounce.)
-One syllable replies (go from full sentences to one syllable replies….. reptilian brain is clicking in.)

Eye Jab
Eye Jab
Close up -
Either use a bent thumb.
Either bend your fingers.
Little farther away, but still close -
Karate chop using the last three fingers (pinky, ring, middle) with a loose wrist to snap out hands.
Look for methods to protect your hands.

Roof Block
Roof block for an oncoming attack to the head.
Set up the opponent with a jab to the hand so he will raise his stick then come in.
3 Points.
Point #1 the stick/hand.
Point#2 the elbow.
Point#3 the head.
Roof block and punch up to meet the stick.

Dog Catcher
Another Crafty Dog technique.
The Dog Catcher is similar to the Inayan knife defense with an X block, but adds a head butt for distraction and positioning of the head against opponent's neck.
The Dog Catcher variation has a Pekti Tirsa hand up and the other hand down to trap the arm of the knife attacker and milk down to the wrist. Remember the initial false lead to set up the striking dog bite and head butt.
Pass under to my right to position myself to the outside.
Left hand under the arm.
Right hand over the wrist/thumb meat.
Hold arm tight to chest.
Be careful if opponent attempts to pull out the knife against your chest (survival better than stomach). If you feel the pull ride the knife and counter.

John Wooden Quotes
John Wooden Quotes (1-5)
* "It's the little details that are vital. Little things make big things happen."
* "Talent is God given. Be humble. Fame is man-given. Be grateful. Conceit is self-given. Be careful."
* "Don't let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do."
* "For an athlete to function properly, he must be intent. There has to be a definite purpose and goal if you are to progress. If you are not intent about what you are doing, you aren't able to resist the temptation to do something else that might be more fun at the moment."
* "I always tried to make clear that basketball is not the ultimate. It is of small importance in comparison to the total life we live. There is only one kind of life that truly wins, and that is the one that places faith in the hands of the Savior. Until that is done, we are on an aimless course that runs in circles and goes nowhere."
John Wooden Quotes (6-10)
* "The most important key to achieving great success is to decide upon your goal and launch, get started, take action, move."

* "Our land is everything to us... I will tell you one of the things we remember on our land. We remember that our grandfathers paid for it - with their lives."
* "What you are as a person is far more important that what you are as a basketball player."
* "Material possessions, winning scores, and great reputations are meaningless in the eyes of the Lord, because He knows what we really are and that is all that matters."

* "You cannot attain and maintain physical condition unless you are morally and mentally conditioned. And it is impossible to be in moral condition unless you are spiritually conditioned. I always told my players that our team condition depended on two factors / how hard they worked on the floor during practice and how well they behaved between practices."
