    I cried at Cathy Rosen's funeral when I heard this.

    I want it to be played at my funeral. I loved Cathy Rosen. She just wasn't the one who was the one who it would work out to marry before I met Sara.

    O Baha'u'llah song with wonderfully appropriate video

    This video show the stages of Baha'u'llah's persecution, then showing the solid foundation He has laid, all in harmony to the music originally played at the 2nd Baha'i World Congress. This song is familiar to some of you, I'm sure, but the video really enhances the experience.

    There is a new Film out about Abdul'baha. I enjoyed watching it, but the soundtrack is a bit dodgy in a couple of places. Otherwise a good short story of his life. Regards Tony
