For a moment
turn off the noise
and listen.
No music.
No video.
Simply be still
and try to hear You.
This might take some time -
because we have been inundated
and conditioned to have so much
sound become the background of
our lives that we don’t even
know what “We” sound like.… —-> Continue…
Sometimes it takes a tragedy to cause us
to take hold of our lives and create triumph.
From the rumble of toppled buildings
to crushed & shattered dreams and hopes;
where we go from here all starts at a beginning.
Do we rebuild from rubble with the same anger,

I often wonder
what you were doing before
you started reading this.
Taking a quick break from work perhaps, or maybe
getting caught up on emails and such just before bed.

It took me a week to write this piece
because I don’t know how to convince
someone who doesn’t already know it.… —-> Continue…
So, today I read this tidbit:
“FACT:
One of the only activities that activates,
stimulates, and uses the entire brain
IS MUSIC. ”

come at the highest price
and the greatest cost…
Are you willing to pay it?
This is the thought that entered

On January 20. 2017 the 45th President of the
United States of America took over the Oval Office.
Regardless of the outcome of the election,
