Hi Bloggers! Do you have to share a story or a short reflection tagged with the letter “G”? For example I’ve written about an old GOSPEL (watch below) or about GREECE, about GRASSHOPPERs or GUITARISTs, GHANA or GERMANY, GYM or GRAFFITI, GREY or GREEN, GORILLA or GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE, GIRLS or GHOSTS etc. – I’m sure you’ll find an own story or a short reflection tagged with “G”! Feel free to add in the comments the link to your personal interpretation of the letter “G”!!!
Go Down Moses
My first song on my guitar! But now, 50 years later, I understand, that I wanted to leave the place where I was fenced in: “GO DOWN FRIZZY” – yes, I did, and now, 50 years later at least I’ve build my own world, 100 km away … QUESTION: Did you leave the town where you went to school – or are you still there?

Oh Frizz, Your rendition of Let my people Go, is so beautiful, heartfelt!
Gandalf?
I left the school and city where I grew up. It was suburban Sydney. I left as soon as I finished College and have rarely been back. Now I live 500km north of the city.
great guitar playing, awesome post. Here is mine for G

P.S.:
dear Wolfgang
your best ghosts are your black cats hunting in the night!
Truly very moving music. I agree with Nelli, you do look like Gandalf here.
As to your question, I have moved away from my hometown as I am now based in Singapore for the past four years. 
My G photo contribution this week is Grand Canyon.

I love your song for the letter G challenge. Here is my entry: http://wp.me/p23TG1-1b6
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
my hometown was a steel town too (20.000 workers there) – now the ovens are gone to China, many are jobless here …

I thought it was about time I had a try Frizz, http://lucidgypsy.wordpress.com/2012/08/14/story-challenge-letter-g/
hi Gilly Gee,
I like your saying
“…I like geese and would love to keep guard geese
but I haven’t anything to guard…”
Love the music and the last photo … super.
Ah, Frizz, so beautifully played…
What a great challenge- I signed up.
What better “G” than grandchildren: http://cyclingrandma.wordpress.com/2012/08/08/grandma-diary-strap-stress/
grandma diaries – a good idea for some more G stories!
(We have three grandchildren)
Beautifully played Frizz! I am far from the place I went to school too
My entry dedicated to our Independence day Frizz: http://theurgetowander.com/2012/08/15/a-legacy-of-peace/
Beautifully played…
My father was a danish military officer when I was a school boy, so we moved a bit around – my first 10 years at school was shared between 4 schools – 3 danish and one german – like them all…
To day I live far away from all 4 but still in contact with friends from all 4 places…

Fancy guitars! http://beyondpaisley.net/2012/08/14/g-challenge-guitars/
GUITARS at Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts – a great “thank you” for this wonderful gallery!
Really enjoyed your guitar playing. Thank you so much!
“Go Down, Moses” was one of the earliest African-American spirituals that I learned! Thanks so much for the memories! I am thinking right now of “Go pick a peck of pickled peppers”!
A beautiful rendition of the song!
Here is constant GRACEFULness:

thank you, Angeline, for supporting my optimism, that to play guitar can’t be a bad behaviour …
Here is my G entry. Ganesha remover of obstacles.
http://truthaboveallreligions.wordpress.com/2012/08/14/story-challenge-letter-g/
we could need such a guru in Europe too: Ganapati or Ganesha, the remover of obstacles…
Beautiful music! I now live away from the place I grew up in, but am back in the state of my forefathers!
My entry for this week-http://perceptionsofareluctanthomemaker.wordpress.com/2012/08/17/a-z-challenge-g-grandmothers/
thanks for joining my “G” stories with
“Grandmothers are the voices of the past
and role models of the present” -
and maybe giving some ideas for the next generation too…
Here is mine, combined with some quotes and the Photo Challenge “Growth”. Summer growth provides and abundant harvest and picturesque near perfect vegetables. Lots of rain this summer!

FRIZZ: – would be nice, if he is right with this …
I left it Frizz but I haven’t found ‘home’, the place that feels right…maybe I should go back?!
Hi Frizz – a bit late (nearly H time) but here you go…
http://2e0mca.wordpress.com/2012/08/20/a-z-story-challenge-g-is-for-grieg/
thanks for your cricket stories – reading Grieg, I first thought on the music composer… Moldau
thank you Madhu for thinking of Gandhi for my
story-challenge-letter-g
P.S.:
in dialogues with the feminist writer Rita Banerji, Kolkata, we came to the point, that maybe we need sometimes anger and rage to have the power to CHANGE bad conditions; maybe Gandhi was too passive …
GOD’s glory & grace,
gratitude & goodness,
gentle & granite …
good, that we have Gs!
thank you for this heart touching G / Gong story – which is a kind tribute to your father (and grandfather) too …
this river has to thank you for your many great photo and story telling tributes to him!
thank you for joining my G story challenge with your geese document!
