A Musician's Joy









Day 58
Today I witnessed the most awes inspiring performance I think I have ever seen. I was brought to tears by the power and glory this piece produced.














As I watched my friends and fellow musicians baring their souls in this epic manner, I felt my own soul greeting God. I know what it means to soar, because of music like this. Music brings me closest to Heaven and I have never been happier with my choice in major. Words cannot describe the overwhelming sense of peace and joy I felt during this performance. I know now more than ever before that music speaks a language that cannot be truly shared except by listening to it. And it is my greatest joy that I am able to be a part of it.

Contemplative




Day 38

"A day spent without the sight or sound of beauty, the contemplation of mystery, or the search of truth or perfection is a poverty-stricken day; and a succession of such days is fatal to human life. "~Lewis Mumford

Stop and Go


“On a traffic light green means go and yellow means yield, but on a banana it's just the opposite. Green means hold on, yellow means go ahead, and red means where the hell did you get that banana at...”~Mitch Hedberg
