June Words by Nigel A.  JAMES -  June is a month of perspectives.  An English speaking perspective and an Austrian /German perspective.  And, June is an intertesting month, because June is an interesting word.

In England, people say June.  In Vienna,  people say "tune". This is the same as singing a nice tune, or being in tune. In England, couples dance to  romantic tunes and  not a nice june! And, in Austria, people waltz to beautiful tunes composed by Johan Strauss.  And, of course, Strauss isn't only an ostrich with its head in the sand,  Strauss is a bunch of nice flowers as well.

And, June, too, is a beautiful name.  June, in fact was a famous Greek goddess.  The goddess of being half-way-there.  And June played beautiful tunes in June on her Lyra.  And, that's why June is called June in England and Tune in Austrian Tirolean villages and Vienna.

June is a month  going down in gear. June is getting ready for speed.  High summer is just round the corner.  Our decisions are behind us.  Now we must live them. 

June is in its own way the best month of the year.   A Tune or a June that sits squarely in the middle of the year.  June is both alpha and omega, or, if you prefer, omega and alpha. 

June is a month for singing in tune in June, or a month for singing in tune in Tune in Tirol!

This month's saying of the month  from Tirol.

If you want to stay little - Then stay little in a very big way!
