Well well..... you must be thinking the title of my post this time is weird..... :DI am responsible for what I wrote and I have the explanation of why I picked that title.
But first, let me explore about the song. Summer Samba is a song originally written by a Brazilian composer Marcos Valle. The English lyrics is written by Norman Gimbell, while the Portugese version Lyrics written by Marcos Valle's brother: Paulo Sergio Valle.
The song first popularized by Walter Wanderley Trio and then many popular jazz singer also sang the song and recorded. Connie Francis, Diana Krall, Stacey Kent, Johnny Mathis, Astrud Gilberto and........ I don't know who else.
I like best the Stacey Kent's version for this song. She sang the song a bit slow compared to the original version.
Now, what is the relation of this song with the Holy Spirit Minor Seminary Tuka - Bali?
Yesterday I had a chance visiting the Holy Spirit Minor Seminary located in a small village near Denpasar - Bali. The place is still having their extension development project.
While walking around the place, Stacey Kent kept on 'singing' the Summer Samba or So Nice in my head. I don't know, that song has already been inside my mind for several days.
So nice, life would be so nice
If one day I'd find
Someone who would take my hand
And samba through life with me
Someone to cling to me
Stay with me right or wrong
Someone to sing to me
Some little samba song
Someone to take my heart
And give his heart to me
Someone who's ready to
Give love a start with me
What bothered me? Is that somebody that will stay with me right or wrong?
Human are very weak. Kindhearted people will be loved whilst the opposite will be left immediately. Is there somebody that will stay like what the lyrics of the song said??
While seeing the cross on the church and realized the body attached to it; I know who Somebody that will stay with me right or wrong. I do not need to wait ...... One day...., I have Him already, but just don't realize.
Found the answer, I spread a big smile. My foot stepping lightly after wards. I took several pictures of the place. (shared here for you)
BTW, I admired the concept of the new extension of the seminary.
I think when it finished it will be a good place for children who choose to serve people by being a priest. They still need support to finish the project. Wanted to know more? Why don't you visit their website: http://www.bali-seminary.org/
When writing this post, Stacey Kent still 'singing' the song for me. But now, my heart feel so good, as I know the answer to what made me thinking hardly.
My friend laughing out loud when I showed her what I am doing now, she said it is just a song why be so much bothered?
Indeed, it is just a song, but the song influenced me a lot. So.................???

ReplyDeleteIs great to have such Seminary of God. Likewise here in Sabah Malaysia we do have and I attended down the year 1999; we call it as year of break thought.
ReplyDeleteIn the Bible; Genesis, God mentioned He made man like His own image, which mean He wants everyone like Him, to serve each other and mankind as we all are His children.
