A friend once said "Welcome to your Big Wonderful Life" as she sent me off to an adventure in Ecuador the summer of 2011. I now strive to always remember that my life is as big and wonderful as I make it. Here are some of my thoughts and adventures.

An Influence we Don't even Notice
Music, we hear it everyday but often pay no attention. It plays when you're shopping, in your car, when someone calls you on your cell, in the background of any tv show or movie, and some of our most advanced technology is used to hold music. Music is in many ways another language, one that speaks to us in ways that are unexplainable. The best is created when our emotion is strongest.It comes from your soul when your heart is breaking, tears are streaming, laughter is flowing, and questions torment the heart and mind. Passion, frustration, and relief rush through the body as new pieces of music are created. It is no wonder that, when so much work is put into a brief but memorable thing that that creation is able to influence so many areas of our lives. We as listeners are able to feel the true meaning of music when it passes the mind and pierces the soul. Without us even realizing it, music can influence the mood in a room, cause a change in attitude, or create an entirely new situation. I'm not gonna lie this makes things somewhat difficult because it is becoming harder and harder to find good music that isn't going to make you want to punch someone in the kidney. But this is possible, We just have to take a little time to do the little things.

That is so true! I am constantly influenced by music. If I go to a musical, I come back positive, feeling like singing. When I listen to depressing, hard rock songs, I am difficult to get along with! And by the way I hope you become a writer someday.
