Music for the Soul

JJ Heller:
My friend Jes introduced me to this singer and I love her words. Acoustic/Folk is growing on me and I usually play a few of her songs as I get ready in the morning. They remind me of what I believe.

True Things
I am not the clothes I’m wearing
I am not a photograph
I am not the car I drive

I am not the money I make
I am not the things I lack
I am not the songs I write

I am… who I am
I am who I am

There are true things inside of me
I have been afraid to see
I believe, help my unbelief
Would you say again what you said to me
I am loved
I am free
I believe, help my unbelief

I am not the house I live in
I am not the man I love
I am not the mistakes that I carry

I am not the food that I don’t eat
I am not what I’m above
I am not my scars and my history

To your love
I’m waking up
In your love
I’m waking up

The Apprentice:
My friend Jeremy introduced me to these newcomers. It's been my comfort music as of late and I play it when I need to think some things out. It reminds me what I'm striving for. Many of the song speak to me where I'm at right now. Listen to Life Will Pass You By

Other Thoughts:
I didn't intend this post to be a shout out to Ireland friends, but it's turning into that. It's already Thursday and I'm glad the week is speeding by, BECAUSE Jes and Jeremy will be here next Thursday...in Grand Rapids!

This weekend will include debate watching, free festivaling, and pillow fighting. Oh yes there will be pillow fighting!
