Lyrics for Songs of Our World Every Child Words and Music by Raffi and Michael Creber © 1995 Homeland Publishing From the album Raffi Radio Every child, every child, is a child of the universe Here to sing, here to sing, a song of beauty and grace Here to love, here to love, like a flower out in bloom Every girl and boy a blessing and a joy Every child, every child, of man and woman-born Fed with love, fed with love, in the milk that mother’s own A healthy child, healthy child, as the dance of life unfolds Every child in the family, safe and warm bridge: Dreams of children free to fly Free of hunger, and war Clean flowing water and air to share With dolphins and elephants and whales around Every child, every child, dreams of peace in this world Wants a home, wants a home, and a gentle hand to hold To provide, to provide, room to grow and to belong In the loving village of human kindness

The Hamsa Hand - Do you believe in Luck? - Necklace by Simag.etsy.com

The hamsa in Arabic { خمسة ‎, khamsa} or hamesh {5 חמש } in Hebrew is a popular amulet for blessings, power and strength protection from an evil eye throughout the Middle East and North Africa. A similar symbol of a blue eye in a hand, also to protect from the evil eye, in Turkish culture, but the focus is on the eye, not the hand and the Turkish blue eye also occurs on its own.

In our house we have Hamsa wall decoratives from around the world as

"Blessing for the Home"

lunes 12 de abril de 2010 Un detalle SimaG Hace un par de meses tuve la suerte de que me tocara en un sorteo de otro blog este collar tan personal y único. Como para mi fue un detalle tan bonito el que me preguntará como lo quería y encima me lo enviara desde Colorado, EEUU, quería tener este pequeño detalle con ella para que podáis conocer su trabajo. Lo primero de todo os enseño el collar que hizo para mi… me encanta, porque es muy personal y se que nadie mas lo tiene igual. A que es bonito? I was lucky to win this necklace in a raffle. I love this because it is unique and fully customized, is unique. Its creator sent me from the U.S. to Spain, and allowed me to choose how I wanted the design. So I want to present her work Sus trabajos se personalizan por ser piezas únicas y que trasmiten un mensaje, en su mayoría de cariño ya que escribe el nombre, inicial o frase que se desee sobre un disco, que suele trabajar para darle un efecto final e único. The work of her pieces are customized to be unique and convey a message, mostly with affection. It carry an initial, name or phrase you want on a disc, which she usually work to give a final and unique effect.
