thank God for music
I truly am not sure what I’d do without it. When I’m listening to beautiful symphonies, I’m able to feel depths of the soul of the composer, and that temporary escape from my own selfish, trivial and consuming emotional rants is a soothing tonic. Sometimes I feel so much emotion, I’m afraid I’ll explode. But then I just pick up a stringed instrument, or let my fingers...

There is no sweeter taste on the tongue than uttering aloud the secret whispers of our souls: of admitting the truest of our preconceived emotions towards those whom we hold the closest.
Some sort of heavenly catharsis is found there.
When we eliminate the hiccups of our technicalities, and return to the idyllic utopia of a childlike perspective and say what we feel and mean what we say, we can...
Jesus never talked to a prostitute because he didn’t see a prostitute. He just...
– Shane Claiborne (via redeemedheart)
this is what makes Christ so appealing to me. How am I any better than a prostitute? My sin is just as disgusting to a perfect Being. I CAN’T STAND Christians who sit on their high horses, looking down at other’s sin that is in their estimation, so...

The Bon Iver/Fleet Foxes show was ethereal. I couldnt believe the sounds encompassing my cochlear hairs. After seeing both Bon Iver and Fleet Foxes for the third time, I was just truly content with the sounds. I wish everyone who is a fan of Justin and Robins music could have enjoyed it with me.
Highlights:
You forgot about the 5 minute violin solo. It took every strength...

Partir, c’est mourir un peu
There’s so much more I want to do than the meager things I am
So many more outside myself I yearn to understand

(this should probably be the the disclaimer of my life’s works)
There’s nothing like spending time with old friends. When I say old, I mean they’ve been around for a while: they’ve seen dozens of seasons with me-have seen me through all my awkwardness and rebirths, through my joys and sorrows. These are the ones worth holding on to.
There’s nothing like the words of these old friends to shed light on the attics of our hearts, of the...

Nope, i’m not letting this happen! ;)
You know you’re a female musician when holding a boy’s hand makes you realize his fingertips are softer and smoother than your own.
My worn out fingers are calloused now. Im very proud to say this, even though it may not be considered ideal in beauty. It means I’ve accomplished something, and if it bothers him he’s probably not going to make the cut.
Besides, there are...
