'MORNING HAS BROKEN...Like The First Morning'

OK , This morning was just beautiful....it snowed 2 days ago in Yelm. The morning light was just hitting the tree tops in back of our house when I woke. As I looked out the window as Steve put on my socks/shoes and helped/lifted me outta bed , that cool, old CAT STEVENs tune 'Morning Has Broken'...came into my mind. I wondered...'What's happening with Cat Stevens? or Yusuf? That's his name now...'YURSEF ISLAM'. I'll check on him today when I get online. 'Cause I just loved him and his music way back in the '70s. You too? Cool.
BOY, I'm glad I did this morning. His latest song is called 'MY PEOPLE', and it just came out. It was inspired by those changes happening in the Arab world. It's all about change and freedom. Those kinda tunes are all cool in my book, they remind me of the civil rights movement with MARTIN LUTHER KING jr., and CEASAR/CESAR CHAVEZ for Hispanics in the 60s and 70s....WOW..that's when I WAS a Chicana, and married to Ernesto...that was MY music. Guess, I'll always be a 'flower-child at heart. Cool. 
Go to RIZ CHAN.... HERE to see a music clip of Yursef's new tune. AND, hear Cat/Yursef talk about his life and views. I especially enjoyed the video...maybe you will too. Jan
