Take a Chance and Let's just see

The first time I heard Two Spot Gobi...I was hooked. The sound that comes from this band is a sound that instantly touches my soul. I can literally feel their music within myself when i listen to it. If you have never heard them before you should really check out both of their albums. They are simply amazing!!

Love burns brighter than Sunshine...

I SMILE EVERY SINGLE TIME I HEAR THIS SONG. I CAN'T HELP IT!!!

Every day seems like a test lately....and Baby I'm passing with flying colors!!!

    I have not had the easiest month. It has been filled with ups and downs. The one thing that keeps me sane is my love of life. The fact that no matter what happens in the end it will all work out as it should. Knowing that we choose to feel how we feel. We choose to live our lives in the manner that we do. I am learning to let go of things,to not hold hate in my heart, to forgive and forget. I've learned that we are not all on the same level of understanding, and that's ok. I've learned that love is more than the way I feel. It is the way I am, the way I treat others, and the way I live my life. I'm learning to push the negative away while I bask in the positive light.
I'm not perfect, I have momentary battles with my self. I have moments where I slip, but in the end I stand up and brush myself off and learn from the experience. I am grateful for all that I have, because I have a lot. I have an amazing family,and  the most supportive friends in the world. Beyond that the things we have in our life are just that....things. I hope to keep growing and I hope to have you along for the ride.

With Love,
Dana

Music Makes My Soul Shine...

 If you haven't noticed yet, Music is a huge part of my life. I think it started when My Papa would play The Beatles, and Jimi Hendrix to me in the womb. I came out of my mother with a natural longing to hear a sweet melody. Every memory I have, has a song to go along with it. The notes intertwine through the years of my life. I can remember dancing to "You are My Sunshine" in my Grandmas kitchen when I could just barely speak. Singing Black bird with My Dad in the back yard when I was in Elementary school, and spending countless hours in what is now referred to as "The Barn", this is the place where the music lives at my Papa's house.  There is a song for every important moment in my life. I have always been surrounded with the love that is music. Music can make a bad mood good, and a sad mood happy in my world. I'm sure I will share more music with you then is necessary, but this is part of the love that consumes me and if i can pass on even a morsel that you will take with you, I feel like I did my job.

With Love,
Dana

Go on and love yourself, because it's all going to be fine.
