Usually, we choose songs we like by the melody, the lyrics, and by the musical genre. I’m starting a series with songs from all kinds of genres going according to the alphabet.

Graz On the Mur River
The capital of Styria and Austria’s second-largest city is Graz. It has a lovely location in the shadow of Schlossberg hill and is situated on both sides of the Mur River. There are beautiful views all around and the city itself is charming with lots to see and delight in. It was actually the castle upon The Schlossberg that gave the city its name. It came from the Slavonic word Gradec for “little castle” and later became Graz.

Beautiful Bela Horizonte
Minas Gerais means “General Mines”. This is a state in southeastern Brazil rich in natural and cultural heritage. Bela Horizonte is the capital of the state of Minas Gerais in South America. Bela Horizonte was carved out of the forest surrounding a settlement for gold-diggers known as Curral del Rei, founded in 1701. It was a new city modeled after Washington D.C. the capital of the U.S. The city has a wonderful background of mountains. Its skyline is a mix of old and new. In the 1940s Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer designed several of his first buildings here and gave Bela Horizonte some of his best-known works and top tourist attractions.

Love That Never Dies
How many times and in how many ways do our loved ones let us know that they are near? It is a question that has been repeated over and over again and yet, there are still those who do not believe that after death our loved ones are still near us. I know that they are and that they will be there to watch over us until we meet again. I am not only talking about family members but also about friends, past loves, and anyone who has closely touched our lives. We despair when they are gone but that despair should fade if we let them into our hearts and into our lives once more. The main thing is to never, ever be afraid. There is nothing to fear and what you gain is having that person you miss so much be beside you again. It doesn’t mean that they will be there all the time but at certain times you will feel, hear or just know that they are there. I thought about writing this now because I find that spirits come more often at certain times and one of those times is when the seasons change.
