Invisible Piano Performance

This is a lovely performance on an invisible piano by comedy genius Rowan Atkinson (also known as Mr. Bean). The air piano act include two Beethoven sonatas: the first movement from the Pathétique Sonata No. 8 in C minor, Op.13 and the third movement of the Moonlight Sonata No. 14 in C-sharp minor, Op. 27, No. 2.

My Family

Here are some photos that were taken a while back of our family. I hope you enjoy them. Their isn't one of us all together yet but I'll try and put one up as soon as possible.

Problems...Deal with them!

I am just finishing up a good school day. It was quite busy. I haven't done school for some time now and it is very refreshing to know how hard it is and how ignorant I am. :P...lol

But I think that's what education is for. As long as I keep a teachable spirit, I should learn lots of wonderful things that I can use now or later in my life if I choose to. There sure is a LOT of knowledge in this world. I hope to continue learning for the rest of my life.

I want to make a difference in the world. Do you? Well it starts with family. If I have a terrible relationship with my family, it is going to be very difficult trying to be happy elsewhere. No matter where I go, I can't escape my problems. They just keep coming up in my life. Although, I think it's really how we deal with the problems in our lives that define our character. If we run away from them, they aren't going to just vanish. We need to face them and respond in a biblical way; the way that God would have us respond.

Jr. Speech Tournament Again!

Tomorrow is the Jr. Speech Tournament for children who are 11 and under. It's going to be very fun. Older children from age 12-18 will be judging them. I'm sure the day will turn out just grand. I think this is our 4rth Jr. tournament. Each one gets better than the last. I hope to see some of you there. :)

Blog once forgotten...

Yes. I have officially forgotten my blog for some time now. I'm going to try and make it up to my blog by posting on it every day now. It will be glad to know I still care about it. In fact, here's a short poem that I will dedicate to my blog:

Oh sweet & precious blog!
Of mine so long yet so dear.
How wilt I ever truly hog
Another blog so near?

Of joy and of pain have I written on,
Years of service hast thou given.
Now I thank thee once again
For this post to have posted on.

This poem may not satisfy,
The goodness thou hast shown me.
But ever more shalt I be grateful
For a blog to write hello...goodbye.

Here I am playing the piano

I hope I can do this someday...

Dare You To Move Lyrics -
Welcome to the planet
Welcome to existence
Everybody's here
Everybody's watching you now
Everybody waits for you now
What happens next?

I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened before

Welcome to the fallout
Welcome to resistance
The tension is here
Between who you are and who you could be
Between how it is and how it should be

Maybe redemption has stories to tell
Maybe forgiveness is right where you fell
Where can you run to escape from yourself?
Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna go?
Salvation is here

Debra Fine on Small Talk

I just finished this book by Debra Fine. I have listened to her audio presentations before and have been helped greatly in talking to strangers. This book is phenomenal. I just can't say enough about it. I would encourage you to get your hands on it. Here's her website: debrafine.com
