It’s June 8th, 2024; We have an original rock song about tanning and burning–ripe for summer! This song was written (music and lyrics) by my summer-lovin’ husband Richard Murrey. This upbeat rock song offers the smooth spooky vocals from Bubba Hudson, all sharply tanned and radio-ready–from our buddy, Steven Cooper of Nashville, TN.
Before skin bronzers were a thing
Here’s the one-hundred-sixtieth new music post for 2024, as I consistently push out new original songs for your listening pleasure–while you are relaxing in the sun to get your golden glow on. Now, here’s the song:
Tanned and ready
I’m not one to slather on SPF this or that to prevent sunburn. I actually believe the sun has a purpose! I think we need to limit our time in full sun, and maybe that’s why some cultures began taking siesta during the day, but science says we need a certain amount of sun each day to create vitamin D in our bodies.
I used to use coconut oil on my skin (top to bottom) but didn’t know if I was doing the right thing until a veterinarian confirmed the use of coconut oil to prevent sunburn–he told me that when he was a youngster from the islands that all the parents slathered homemade coconut oil on their children from birth on to prevent the sun from burning their already dark skin! He encouraged me to use coconut oil on our dogs’ skin when one had a flaky itchy skin condition! I never bought another skin lotion for myself or my husband after that!
Yes, Everything Happens for a Reason and Everything Resolves to Gratitude. Knowing that each of us (as fractals) uplifts my mind and allows me to view life as a lively kaleidoscope grand design that moves about in an ever-expanding, revolving, melodious, consciousness. Coconut oil may not solve every skin condition, but I’d rather trust anything God made over anything manmade (and this is true for me in most instances too), as I always love to “go back to the source” as much as possible. I’m probably an anti-consumer. Ha!
Enjoy (IN Joy) everything and love! Be Everything All the Time. May we all soar in ’24!
Yours in expanding, source-trusting, spiraling consciousness,
Sheila “Spiral Sister” Murrey

I am sorry to hear of your son’s ex wife dying of melanoma. It’s very sad to hear of people dying of diseases that may be preventable.
I had several bad sunburns growing up too—mostly when we would go on vacation to a beach. I have had a few moles removed but nothing cancerous. It’s good you get checked. I used to go for annual checks until one year when my dermatologist cancer doc said I only needed to return if I needed him. He was not amused when I had reversed shingles within 3 months of eating a raw vegan diet. (They really never want to know what heals things, in my experience.)

Right now, there’s not much chance of me catching melanoma here in the UK, with the weather being as it is.

True, but it hasn’t stopped the pollen. My hayfever is really kicking my butt at the moment.

My brother died of melanoma, so spending time in the sun is no joke. He was blond, blue-eyed, fair-skinned, and hiked a lot. I’m brunette and dark-eyed and tan easily. I use sunscreen lotion now that I’m older, but I never did in the past. I see the dermatologist once a year. My brother took after my mother’s side of the family, and I take after my father’s side. Genes play a big part in how people absorb and utilize sunlight. When my husband was ill with a respiratory infection recently, I made him sit outside in the sun, and he said he felt better. I’ve done that when I was sick with the flu. The sun is very healing, if not used to excess.

Exactly, Dawn. Almost everything in life seems like that, a little or a lot. Which is why I often say everything is a matter of levels, layers, doses, or degrees.
I am so sorry to hear your brother died of melanoma. I only recently learned that wearing sunglasses signals our skin to turn off its natural sunscreen abilities.
