Ecclesiasties 11:7


"Oh, how sweet the light of day,
And how wonderful to live in the sunshine!"

music


I always get the impresssion that no one else feels the same way I do when listening to music, but maybe everybody else is thinking the exact same thing.
I love it when the chord progression is so flawless that it makes you want to melt, or when the harmony matches the melody so completely that you sit back entranced. But I think, above all else, what makes a song truely great is how much truth is inscribed in it.

brainless goings-on/heartless drones



Writing my thoughts (or typing them) makes me feel a little silly. I feel like a simple-minded teenage girl that scribbles all over her diary about the newest boy she is crushing on, or how her parents aren't giving her enough allowance to buy that super sweet pair of pants she saw at the mall. But it always gives me a great release. Like I can some how clear my head of all of my qualms, aspirations, miffs, and joys that grow into my encumbrance. This my guilty pleasure.

I'm hoping that this doesn't turn into the brainless goings-on of a simple-minded teenage girl, even if that is my true identity. But I also don't want it to become heartless drones of an amateur trying to hard.
