realized that my three-day silent retreat is only two weekends away.
i hope to use this time to read, catch up on sleep, and meditate. i’ve really slacked on the latter.
any who. i’m seeking some meditation music, like Tibetan Buddhist stuff. (i don’t want like trickling water or something like that though.) there’s just so much on iTunes and i don’t know where to start.
can ya help me?
music, people, love, peace.
some sick jams with hot beats and deep bass to listen to when at the jam and/or just to dance around the house to.
help?
”You and Me” by Obsessions
some beautiful, modern Ugandan music.
great times with this man, my brother, The Ben (of Rwanda). turikumwe. (Taken with instagram)
“Queen” - Longombas
one of my many newest song obsessions. this group is from Kenya. <3
please listen to this, download this, donate to this, share this, play this loudly, tell people about it, educate yourself about what happened in Rwanda in 1994—and what’s going o in the world today—and let’s Rebuild With Africa, Never Divide Again (RWANDA).
please support this.
The Ben is from Rwanda (he’s like Africa’s Michael Jackson) and Mike-E is an incredible rapper who sings/raps on issues of peace, justice, and love. they are huge supporters of Freedom House, and want Africa to prosper in peace. let’s join them.
Amahoro Rwanda. Urukundo Rwanda. (Peace Rwanda. Love Rwanda.)
Amahoro Africa. Urukundo Africa. (Peace Africa. Love Africa.)
Love always shines, that’s how I’ll find you
In case you forgot, I hope this reminds you
