Joys this week:
1. choir kids learning parts of a song I just wrote and rocking it.
2. seeing little ballerinas dance at a recital, falling and getting back up with a smile again
3. talking about music from the 1700's with my students as if they are angsty songs still applicable today to our relationships and lives
4. shamelessly replaying the same song in my car on repeat and loving it more each time
5. holding and comforting a person I hardly knew who was crying over love and brokenness
6. the stillness of the day=no wind
7. really good hot chocolate I just had tonight. the marsh mellow ratio was just right. it was just good each time.
Sometimes, one needs to list the joys out...because they do exist. They don't replace the emptiness or sadness we feel but they remind us that it's going to be ok despite whatever it is we are going through. I know I sound rather silly listing these details out...from ballerinas to hot cocoa...really Casie?
Actually, yes. :)
Love,
C
PS beautiful song: I have loved you wrong--The Swell Season
