About Me

The song playing on my blog page is "Wide Open" by NewSong. To understand why I blog for God read My First Blog on Sunday, November 27, 2005.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
I enjoy live music but more importantly I love the thoughtful and loving people that make the kind of music that reaches deep into me and touches my soul.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Please note, if you request to be my friend & I haven't approved you then I just haven't had the time to listen to you &/or read your profile. If a month goes by then please request to be my friend again.
