What’s in a Name?

ANDREI

• Your name of Andrei gives you a clever mind, good business judgment, a sense of responsibility, and an appreciation of the finer things of life. 
    
• You are serious-minded and not inclined to make light of things even in little ways, and in your younger years you had more mature interests than others your age.  
   
• Home and family mean a great deal to you and it is natural that you should desire the security of a peaceful, settled home environment where you can enjoy the companionship of family and friends.
     
• Whatever you set out to accomplish you do your very best to complete in accordance with what you consider to be right.
   
• Although the name Andrei creates the urge to be reliable and responsible, we emphasize that it can cause a superior, interfering expression whose favorite expression is “I know” when not combined with a balanced last name.
     
• This name, when not combined with a balanced last name, can also frustrate happiness, contentment, and success, as well as cause health weaknesses through worry and mental tension.

Seriousness and I

Large-natured, I am 
not so often
or easily amused. 
Among the masses,
the common run of men, 
I move as a grown person 
among children: 
instead of frivolous games 
I require Art, Science, Wisdom 
(loving the greatest men best). 
I freely grant that 
I am proud and private. 
And not (as now) 
so normally quiet. 

On Creativity

“Oh, I see you write poetry!” 
“Well, yes, such as it is . . . .” 
“Do you paint also?” 
“Not a bit!” 
“And why not?” 
“Oh, the paint doesn’t go where I want it to!” 
“And the words do?” 

If I Find My Woman

I would treat her as a queen
We will always dress in jeans 
She knows how to love a man 
I’ve seen men on the lookout for such a woman
She makes a man run like an ant after her
She uses her mind to make her man 
Go on his knees and run after her

Quand je la trouve 
Je veux vivre pour elle
Quand elle me trouve 
Elle veut vivre pour moi
My woman and me
Nous voulons vivre l’un pour l’autre

If I find her I will be in love for the rest of my life
And forever I will make her my wife
She will know how to use her hands to make a good meal
I have been on the lookout for someone as real 
A rare woman a fine lady with such an appeal
Such a woman to me is a big deal

Quand je la trouve 
Je veux vivre pour elle
Quand elle me trouve 
Elle veut vivre pour moi
My woman and me
Nous voulons vivre l’un pour l’autre

Reality

Right here, right now
Each in our own perceptual dream
A holographic virtual universe
Life manifesting into existence
Influenced by our intentions
Twinkling in and out of time
Yesterday as unreal as tomorrow
