B is for Bob, M is for Marley


Because 30 years ago today the legendary Bob Marley died and because his spirit is still very much alive even just right here in my house with our little Ophelia, 2 years and a half old, who sings loud and clear everyday: "Don't worry about a thing, cause every little thing's gonna be alright" ( Well, its sounds more like: "Don't worrit 'bout a thsing, ev'ry thsing na be alright") "Three little birds" is her favourite song and she knows all the lyrics by heart and sings them with conviction even though she's really young. Every time the song starts playing, her face becomes all smiley and she automatically starts dancing, even her little 11 months old brother starts dancing...It's a moment of instant and pure happiness. 
So because of all this and much more, I'd like to say Thank you Mr. Bob Marley, your music is filled with magic, you soothe the heart and soul of so many still today, you bring happiness and hope to this world, Thank you for still being alive today!
sincerely, peace
