Sometimes I just feel so blessed to have such wonderful people in my life, who love and support me in all that I do. Aside from my family, I have truly been blessed with a handful of tremendous people to help me down this sort of scary path called life. I often find myself wondering what I did to deserve such wonderful friends, and although we tease each other like there is no tomorrow, I know without a shadow of a doubt that there wont be a single situation where I wont be able to turn to any of them for help. They are all so different but so patient and kind and wonderful. Each one is teaching me something different and blessing my life in a different way and I absolutely love it. Talking with one dear friend tonight I made the comment that we were like one big happy family. I quickly said actually we're like one big dysfunctional family, which may sound like a negative thing but is actually something positive. Perfect is boring. Normal is boring. And we tease and joke because we care so much about each other. It is an amazing thing to find a group of people who can be an extension of your family. I absolutely love it. And although things in my life aren't perfect, I am going to bed tonight completely overwhelmed with gratitude for so many beautiful people.
I love music. It is everything good and happy and right with the world and at the same time can say even the saddest words with such elegance and grace. It can express my thoughts and emotions in way that I know I never could. It is the life-blood of my soul. It makes me happy. And it goes beyond anything I can explain in plain words...which is kinda the point. For me, country music (among a few other things) makes me feel like I am home, no matter what is going on in my life. It is simply fantastic, in fact two of my favorite quotes come from the movie August Rush. They are... "You know what music is? God's little reminder that there's something else besides us in this universe, a harmonic connection between all living beings, every where, even the stars." AND "I believe in music the way some people believe in fairy tales..." And if those two don't say it all then I don't know what will. They are simply perfect in my opinion, and are completel...
