So, at the constant urging of my oldest child, and the pretty consistent urging of the other two, added to the many friends that think I am a fool for not telling my story, I shall start this journey.. This is absolutely only the beginning.. Much of what I will add won't be my own words.. I love to share things that inspire me and this will be where I will do that.. My life has been blessed.. I will try to concentrate on that and leave the painful memories for the dusty archives of my heart..

Music....
It's really all about the lyrics.. The song says everything you ever wanted to say, yet could not seem to put into words.. I try to think of something really clever to say, or something truly inspirational, and all I get is a song running through my head.. Good enough for me I suppose.. I can't imagine my life without music.. It does it all.. Sometimes when you wish it wouldn't.. I do not want to be old and never listening to music anymore.. I hope I'm still be-bopping when I'm 90 and getting in trouble for playing it too loud.. I hope I'm still rockin out to Van Halen, blowing a speaker out of 70 yr old Missy's car and getting in A LOT of trouble for it.. Again.. I want to still be swooning to the Christmas music (year round), strumming my air guitar and beating on my air drums to country and rock, playing my air piano to everything, jammin to the old, old classics of Marty Robbins, Patsy Cline, Elvis, and the Beatles, just to name a few.. I hope I still run from the room screaming when I hear Opera!! And, I pray, really pray, that Gospel is a major part of my listening library.. Songs move me immensely, but there is no describing how a gospel song affects my soul.. I am awestruck by the way it stirs my heart and the inevitable sense of peace that comes from it.. If I lose my hearing, the music will play on in my mind.. Just my luck I'll get stuck on the all-time stupidest jingle ever!! Haha!! Oh please no... I am in awe of the fact that even though it seems as though everything that could ever be said, has already been said, yet somebody, somewhere, manages to say it in yet a whole new way, to a whole new tune.. Isn't God awesome?? His Grace is never ending and his blessings are many.. And music seems to say it all.. And yes, I am jealous.. I want to play and sing like that!! Guess I'll have to wait till I'm knocking on Heaven's door.. I was just kidding about the jealous part.. Well, the four year old in me wasn't!! Lol!! :)
