My Heart In Instrumental Music

 
Currently Listening
Happenstance
By Rachael Yamagata
Moments With Oliver
see related

I wish I could play an instrument so I could play my heart.


Instead, I’m forced to reduce what’s inside to letters and
numbers.


Then, try communicating it in a way others can understand.


My vocabulary isn’t what it should be to be able to do this.


Actually, the english language isn’t meticulous enough.


I’d rather find one who can exhaustively comprehend what’s
in my eyes, my tones, my manurisms, my intent, my heart…


Rather than try to share bits and scatter wholeness with
many friends.


I’ll never find what I’m looking for, because such a friend
no longer exists as human.


Such a friend exists only through faith, only in hope.


I am the instrument being played; the music is from this friend's heart.

This friend lives in me and through me.


Guides me and holds me.


This friend is my strength, power, and understanding.


This friend is your friend too with belief in your heart.


Just say it and you can have this friend loving you.


Live it and this friend will bless you.


Build it and know intimacy.


It’s what I’ve always wanted.


And it’s what you’ve been looking for.

Love. Who is love? God is love.

1 John 4:8

i did it again.....my "hmm"....man when you put your heart into words!.....even if they dont feel sufficient enough (to you)....you bring a certain power to them...the words become more than words....they become an expression of...emotions and of strength and of...honesty.

RYC: it really did snow... a lot... like, a lot. it usually snows a couple times each winter, but not this early at all. of course, we're back up in the upper 60's now... *shrugs. i don't get the weather here.

Hi ALyce!!!!  I'm hiding in the great north and trying to un-do burnout.  I have a cell phone and would love to chat, but a 30 minute call averages six "drops" which is very annoying.  Anyway, I'm interested to hear about the surgery and whether you are part cadaver now....

ryc, nice dream! i want to go to the beach! i want to travel! that birthday island trip was the best ever. not often you find a kindred travel partner. so if you ever feel like going to iceland, alexandria or india, let me know. i need a travel buddy. oh, and time and money, but hey, those are easier to come by than good travel buddies.

missing you alyce. I brought Kelsey over to Irene's for some quality time, and as we were sitting there, I thought, hmmm... Kelsey is doing great.... it's like having alyce here again! She's really stepped into the servant leadership role, it has been great to watch. But you're the only one who truly appreciates (or gets) my ridiculous humor. Or attempts at humor. My self-esteem is suffering, Alyce! I need you here to laugh at my stupidities!

hello Alyce. yikes what if i just wrote that and left you'd be like oooh so freaky what does this mean "hello Alyce" and then nothing else? You'd probably think scary weirdo.
it has almost been a year you think you could give us maybe a change of cd or something?

HEY! a cmit??? that is stinking awesome. i do miss our adventures. greece feels much different now. maybe i've gotten used to it. or maybe i'm not interacting with the egg lady and so nothing is as amusing as it once was. i do miss the old neighborhood. i live in touristville now. but it's ok cause i can walk anywhere. big bonus.

miss you
