The Dance

So...nothing really that interesting happened today. I did however find a quote that I really enjoyed.

"I want to close my eyes and throw back my head with laughter, as I step up to dance with You. My tiny hand in Your infinite one. My steps clumsy compared to Your grace. The music begins, we step onto the floor. My grip tightens, knowing I'll fall, but also knowing You'll guide me. The music swells, roaring in my ears until I'm so enraptured that I can't look at anyone but You. My hands and feet poised for the next step, my head up, a smile of love on my face and my eyes locked with Yours. And then, just maybe then, I won't even notice when you turn to one of Your sons and invite him to dance with me."

Of course, that's for a girl. Let's see if I can't adjust it for a guy.

"I hear the music and see you step up to dance. You are my Father, my hand is small compared to yours. I'm not as graceful as you are. But you are teaching me. As the song begins You start Your dance. I am so nervous as I watch. You are so graceful and caring. You have one of Your daughters, and she's beautiful. They are all beautiful. The music begins to soar and my eyes must be fixed on You, for I am still learning, still watching. I want to dance, but I am so afraid. You are so loving, how can I ever compare to You? I can't. But, if I remain faithful to You, and listen when you teach me...I'll be ready when You call me, Your son, to dance with one of Your daughters."

There, not too bad for a slow night. May God keep you this and every night.

A New Spring In Your Step

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Spring!!!

Today was officially the first day of Spring. Boone was beautiful today. The trees are starting to turn green again, the flowers are starting to come out, the sun was shining, and the weather and girls were beautiful!

Of course, I just had to take in the beauty of it all. I drove around some today with some friends just enjoying the weather and collecting canned food for the local hunger Coalition. I really enjoyed seeing people my own age giving their own food up to feed other people.

I have some exciting news....I think I'm going to get my own radio show! That's right, next year I could be a radio host for ASU's own radio station! I'm still thinking over it, but it seems really cool....

Another thing that has happened to me is my back. It hurts, and I don't know why. I've tried everything: medicine, heat, rest, streching. Nothing seems to help. I hope it gets fixed soon. I probably just need a good back rub...but there's nobody up here to give me one....

If you want to see me perform, I will be playing this coming Thursday at 8 PM in Rosen Concert Hall. If you can't make it to that one, I'll be giving a repeat performance the next Wednesday at 8 PM. I'll be telling you more about these later.

Well, that's all I have for tonight. My non-existent love life has calmed down, I seem to be just helping others with theirs. I've been patient for 19 years, I guess I can hold on a little longer....

May God keep you (and of course me) this and every night.

"For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone; The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land; The fig tree putteth forth her green figs, and the vines with the tender grape, give a good smell. Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away"
Song of Solomon (ch. II, v. 11-12)
