I am here for Friends

About Me

"...the sea's only gifts are harsh blows and, occasionally, the chance to feel strong. Now, I don't know much about the sea, but I do know that that's the way it is here. And I also know how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong but to feel strong, to measure yourself at least once, to find yourself at least once in the most ancient of human conditions, facing blind, deaf stone alone, with nothing to help you but your own hands and your own head..."
--Christopher McCandless quoting Primo Levi
“Those who danced were thought to be quite insane by those who could not hear the music.” -- Angela Monet
He is not seeking a powerful people to represent HIM. Rather, He looks for all those who are weak, foolish, despised, and written off: and He inhabits them with His own strength. -- Graham Cooke
"Music expresses that which cannot be put into words and cannot remain silent” -- Victor Hugo
If I am content to heal a hurt slightly, saying "Peace, peace," where is no peace; if I forget the poignant word "Let love be without dissimulation" and blunt the edge of truth, speaking not right things but smooth things, then I know nothing of Calvary love. --Amy Carmichael
“When I hear music, I fear no danger. I am invulnerable. I see no foe. I am related to the earliest times, and to the latest.” -- Henry David Thoreau
keep me in your prayers

Currently Readjusting To This New Level Of Oxygen In The Air

I have shattered myself. Do I really know where I'm coming from anymore? Or is it the empire I have built, full of the lies I have deceived myself with? It's been pretty easy. I suffice myself with wh...

A Cry Consumed In Battle

As I listen to "The Way She Feels" I'm forced to remember the feelings, the suffering, the pain, the torture that occurred within my mind. I always hoped and believed that what I was going through was...

No Vacancy

On a long road, destination clear but unknown. A day of travel has left me weary. I search, but to no avail. The signs on the sketchy motels, which were to become my sanctuary after a tiresome day, re...
