I didn´t think something with Iaido could be combined with Jerusalema… Only in Japan…

[maria_lavendula_77]

I might add this will never happen in my dojo here in Sweden, we don´t dance…

Really nice and beautifully done…It’s funny how some messages get to people in different parts of the world; without they even knowing.

I haven’t seen one country yet that haven’t dance this song so beautifully. I wonder if they are aware this song is religious in nature.

Here are the English lyrics.
jerusalema lyrics in english
x 2
Jerusalem, my home.
Rescue me,
Join me,
Don’t leave me here!

x 2
My place is not here,
My kingdom is not here,
Rescue me!
Come with me!

Save me, save me, save me,
Don’t leave me here,
Save me, save me, save me,
Don’t leave me here!

My place is not here,
My kingdom is not here,
Rescue me!
Come with me!

Save me, save me, save me,
Don’t leave me here,
Save me, save me, save me,
Don’t leave me here!

I honestly didn´t know it was religious (i know it was every where on the internet for a while). I was looking at other things on youtube and it came as a “suggestion” (I´m an iaidoka so anything with iai is something I probably would look at). And it´s nice when iaido that is sort of a meditativ martial art (we imagine our enemies we never go against a real person).

Happy Birthday to MASH star Mike Farrell, who turns 84 today.

Today is Valentines day in some countries but i think the Finnish version of “friendship day”. Im single and middle aged that said my godmother is still alive (very old but still) so I get one card every year from Finland. I think it´s a cute reminder that love is bigger than the one between a couple. Hyvä ystävänpäivä! Have a great friendshipday!

[my_happy_place]

Same to you and everyone else! Spreading the love!

I just got a message from Viki about end-of -the year “Thank you” gift for volunteering. Has anyone else gotten a message about “yearly gifts”? Or received a gift from Viki? What has been your experience?
