The way I see it, music is wonderful. I love it, I really do.
But I'm not freaking obsessed with it. Okay, not obsessed, but music is not my life. I don't have an ipod earphone plugged into my ear 24/7. Actually, I don't even have an ipod. The only way I get my music is from the radio and church. But I know some people...okay I'm not hating on them, but seriously, they'll die without music. And I have to wonder, what it's like to lay in bed and bear the silence. Can people handle silence now adays? Do they even remember what birds sound like, or the way wind moves through the trees? Or is everyone blocking out the sounds of the world they live in?
I love walking. It always reminds me of the time before cars, when the only way to get around was by walking. Jesus walked. He also rode on a donkey. I want to try that. LOL.
I like classical music, I like playing on the piano...I like video game music and movie music. I'm not too big on the secular music. To be honest, I could live with listening to Christian worship music for the rest of my life. Why? Whenever I listen to songs like that, I'm reminded of God, and how good He is to us. Call me prude, I don't care, but that's the reason why I only listen to "Positive Alternative" music. Well, not only. I enjoy listening to other music as well...but I'm not going to waste my money buying them so I can listen to them. God's really the center of my life, and I want to think about Him as often as I can!!! <3
So, can you hear the Sound of Melodies? To walk as our ancestors did, to soak in His glory present in everything around us.
