Silence is soothing

This whole no music thing is harder than i thought it would be. And i wanted to clarify a couple of things that i didnt say last time. Fasting is sacred. Fasting in this case and in most cases is a physical self denial in order to remove distraction and focus more on your relationship with God. It shouldnt just be some thing that i do. Truth is i have wanted to do a music fast for a while, but actually carrying it out just seemed to get pushed back on my agenda. (besides i drive a lot and really like to rock out while in transit) And silence... is a beautiful and terrifying thing. The past three days while driving- its calm, but without the noise i can actually hear my own thoughts. Prayer is so stinkin incredibal- i find i get bored with no music, but then conversation with God fills not only my time- but my heart too.

Enough with the spiritual stuf- here is something to ponder (hehe i like that word... ponder... say it a few times out loud and think about how strainge our language is)
many people say that they hate the dentist. personally i dislike everything about the dentist visit- but did you know that dentists have the highest suicide rate of anyone in the medical profession? and why not- noone likes to go and see them. Perhaps we should all try a little harder to appriceate our dentists, cause as wierd as it is that they chose to stick their hands in mouths for a living- they need a pat on the back too
