More Yamaha U3 links (Yamaha U3G)

I've made another Yamaha U3 / U3G information page. It will soon be full of useful info but for now, they are still worth a look if you are interested in the very popular model of piano.

Any questions, just let me know.

I'm making some pages about the Yamaha U3

I just wanted to report that in the interests of spreading free information about the Yamaha U3 / U3M, I am creating a series of web pages that cover this topic. This morning I made the following Yamaha U3 page and last week I made this Yamaha U3 / U3H page. For now, there is not much to read but I hope to develop each site to cover a different aspect of the excellent Yamaha U3 piano.

I hope this is useful to some people.

Fear

It is better to have loved and lost than never to have lost at all.
Samuel Butler (1835 - 1902), The Way of All Flesh, Chapter 77

Seek not happiness too greedily, and be not fearful of happiness.
Lao-tzu (604 BC - 531 BC)

Cohabitation

"There is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness."
Friedrich Nietzsche (1844 - 1900), "On Reading and Writing"

"Cohabitation is an emotionally- and physically-intimate relationship which includes a common living place and which exists without legal or religious sanction.
Couples commonly choose to live together for one or more reasons: wanting to test compatibility or establish financial security before marrying (...), living with someone before marriage as a way to avoid divorce, (...) a way to avoid the higher income taxes paid by some two-income married couples (in the United States), negative effects on pension payments (among older people), and seeing little difference between the commitment to live together and the commitment to marriage.
Some couples prefer cohabitation because it does not legally commit them for an extended period, and because it is easier to establish and dissolve without the pricey legal costs often associated with a divorce. In some states cohabitations can be viewed legally as common-law marriages, either after the duration of a specified period, or the birth of the couple's child, or if the couple consider and behave accordingly as husband and wife. (This helps provide the surviving partner a legal basis for inheriting the deceased's belongings in the event of the death of their cohabiting partner.)
Today, cohabitation is a common pattern among younger people in the Western world, especially those who desire marriage but whose financial situation temporarily precludes it, or who wish to prepare for what married life will be like before actually getting married. More and more couples choose to have long-term relationships without marriage, and cohabitate as a permanent arrangement."

Morning

Naked you are simple as one of your hands;

Smooth, earthy, small, transparent, round.

You've moon-lines, apple pathways

Naked you are slender as a naked grain of wheat.



Naked you are blue as a night in Cuba;

You've vines and stars in your hair.

Naked you are spacious and yellow

As summer in a golden church.


Naked you are tiny as one of your nails;

Curved, subtle, rosy, till the day is born

And you withdraw to the underground world.


As if down a long tunnel of clothing and of chores;

Your clear light dims, gets dressed, drops its leaves,

And becomes a naked hand again.
