Dear Long-Lost Readers

Dear my lovely readers,

It’s been too long. When I vowed to post every Monday and Thursday, I knew I would eventually forget or not have time to follow through on that promise. Needless to say, I need to work on making more realistic commitments 🙂

Instead of blogging, I have been spending time in class, completing homework, getting mad at Obama, voting, working, and participating in various activities on my college campus. Life has been wonderful, and I love taking a step back from technology every once in a while. We’ve been having sunshine and chilly weather. I have been exercising too, which makes me an happier person overall.

I’m planning to get back to blogging, so please continue to check back here! My posts may not all be as long as I like all the time, but I will work on getting more out to you [and keeping you updated on what I’m up to!].

As we get ready to vote in our next president, watch this YouTube video I made with a few friends of mine today.

On another note, I have been loving listening to some fabulous songs I will put together in a post for you. When there is so much junk out there, songs are beautiful escapes. Look for that post, and welcome back to my blog! Hope to see you around!

For the Dignity of All,

Musical Monday – Today is the Day

Musical Monday
Today is the Day
By Lincoln Brewster

Just a little bit of inspiration for the day…rejoice in today, and be glad! Don’t worry about tomorrow, becasue it is up to God. Reminds me of the quote – “Yesterday is History, Tomorrow a Mystery, Today is a Gift, That’s why it’s called the Present” Think about it!

Musical Monday – "Courageous"

 Musical Monday
Courageous
By Casting Crowns

This song speaks for itself. We’re meant to be courageous – be not afraid! God is with us, and with God, nothing is impossible. If you haven’t already, you should check out the movie Courageous which this song was made for (I think). It’s an awesome movie, with a great message for you: Go the extra mile, and be people of courage.


“Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear.” ~Ambrose Redmoon

What’s more important to you than fear? 

Musical Monday – God Bless the USA

Happy President’s Day!
This is by far one of my favorite patriotic songs – I wish all Americans shared the sentiments in this song. We should ALL be willing to stand up for what we believe in, protect our country, and our rights as Americans. Rock on America!

“I’m proud to be an American, where at least I know I’m free. And I won’t forget the men who died who gave that right to me. And I’ll proudly stand up next to you, and defend her still today. “Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land. God Bless the USA!!!!!”

Musical Monday – Medley

This week’s Musical Monday post does not have any deep meaning, but reveals the facts that:
1. Andrew Lloyd Weber (who composed the songs in this medley) is a genius, and 
2. I have no idea how this guy, Nick Pitera, can sing like a operatic woman and a manly dude.

This is a just-for-fun watch. Enjoy! You should check out the other songs this guy has done here if you feel like wasting a few minutes of your day 🙂
