Music

The question can be simply be asked as "Does music have meaning" My answer to that is "Yes" then the question is "Can you in so many words describe that meaning?" My answer is "No"

This explains music pretty well; it is what it is, it expresses fear, sadness, joy, anger and everything in between. Music can't fully be described or put into words making it one of the mysteries in life. Music influences the listener whether they want to believe it or not and the direction of influence depends on what you listen to. It works its way through your ears to your brain to your heart. So what are you putting into your heart through music? there's a whole lot of bad stuff out there but there's a lot of good as well.

Music takes up a good portion of my life. I sing and play instruments daily in school and home and hope that someday my love of music can be constructed into something worthwhile in my life. I've grown up in a family that loves music and that has rubbed off on me thankfully!

Thanksgiving Joys

well with Thanksgiving 2 days away I've started to think of things I'm thankful for that i take advantage of. have you? well i have decided that i take advantage of always having food on the table. i look through the pantry and see tons of food and say "there's nothing to eat!" when someone in Africa or something would look at the same pantry and say "this will last a month!" ever done that? i went on a missions trip w/ my church and there was a family we helped who had literally nothing that you could safely eat in it. after that experience i get mad when people say "I'm starving" because they have no idea. so yeah I'm really thankful for always having food available for me. I'm also thankful for my amazing friends who i could never go through school or life without. my friends are awesome. they are always there for me with smiles and hugs and make me feel better when I'm having a not so great day. i honestly don't know how I'd go through life without the good friends that i have. the one friend that i could never live with out is Jesus though. He's the One who sees all my tears and cleanses and renovates my heart and life. so when you celebrate thanksgiving don't just think of it as a break from school, but a chance to really show how thankful you are for what you have. have a great thanksgiving everyone!!!!
