Now you can add one more element to the fueling of the creative process: music. I also went back and read about your experience with leukemia and chemotherapy. What a story you have! I’ll be returning often to learn more from you now that I’ve discovered your writing. <br /><br />Udeshi, the pleasure is mine. You may know by now that my readers are requesting a video :) You must have practiced for hours on end to produce such excellence. I can only imagine how much time and energy you all invested. No doubt a lot of gigs will ensue from this concert! <br /><br />Jessica, amen girl! “Music speaks what cannot be expressed, soothes the mind and gives it rest, heals the heart and makes it whole, flows from heaven to the soul.” ~ SantizDebrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02273349436461781371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6392676309476353391.post-78173412299691577382011-02-24T20:21:18.593-08:002011-02-24T20:21:18.593-08:00Sounds like it was an amazing night.

I did comment back to you.<br /><br />As for music, it has been a part of my life since I was very young always trying to learn different instruments. But when music took the biggest role in my life is this past year going through chemotherapy treatments. When I really needed to just relax I would put on my favorite music (Eva Cassidy or classical) and just lay with my eyes closed. It was a perfect way to meditate and relax. It is amazing how powerful the effect music can have on our bodies and minds.<br />AaronAaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07599480576917082694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6392676309476353391.post-62830478541908791992011-02-24T15:51:29.823-08:002011-02-24T15:51:29.823-08:00Mary, I can see you now, playing those polkas on t...Mary, I can see you now, playing those polkas on the accordion for your parents *chuckle.* I played guitar as a teen too. Songs like “Ain’t no Sunshine; You’ve got a Friend; Lean on Me…” Those were the days… <br />You must have been devastated over the loss of your dear friend and fellow musician. Little wonder you haven’t picked up the guitar since. <br /><br />Craig, you are poetic :) And your words are always inspired and blessed.

My best friend and I would play duets, me on my guitar and him on his banjo, until he was killed in a car accident at the age of 18. I took it really hard. I still have my guitar, but haven't played since. Not sure I would even remember how to after so many years have passed.<br />Great post and love the photos!Mary Hudak-Collins livingthescripture.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18181851742870395058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6392676309476353391.post-29894997876480498532011-02-23T21:21:09.408-08:002011-02-23T21:21:09.408-08:00Kathleen, yes music is a language of the soul, for...Kathleen, yes music is a language of the soul, for it indeed stirs the emotions.

You have class, my friend. <br /><br />Savira, I’ve noticed the cultural diversity in music on your site. It’s relaxing, soothing, and meditative.
