Center stage... there is no feeling that matches the high of standing center stage singing music you created, lyrics you wrote, feelings being celebrated… coming out of your mouth, soul, and inner being… transcending out… upon… over… blanketing a massive crowd of attentive excited people who want to hear your noise… your voice… to experience something new… be inspired… impacted… transformed by something more profound than words can explain.
Music allows me to do that. I can use the amazing power of God and music to celebrate, dance, sing, talk, reach, change, and inspire others. There is no other feeling like that in the entire world… and, I wouldn't trade it for anything.
Music makes us cry, laugh, think deeply, celebrate, morn gravely, love intensely… it fills us with emotion and thought… not background noise… it has the power to bring people together… comfort the lonely, desperate, weak and depressed. It heals… creates miracles… ignites inner strength… wakes the soul out of a coma… It stirs the mind, heart and body resurfacing memories and moments passed…
… you say to me… "music is just background noise."
To you it is just background noise. It's just something to drown out the mindless chatter. Just noise that doesn't mean anything. Or does it?
To me music is everything; my salvation, strength, desire, passion, peace and hope.
Are these songs background noise… do these songs mean anything to you? Bridge over trouble water… unchained melody… sound of silence… when I look to the sky… knocking on heaven's door… sweet child of mine… only the good die young… storm… goodbye my lover… trouble… i can see clearly now…
... I realize... that perhaps… maybe… all I've ever really been to you is simply… background noise…
But, by the grace of God and of my own will... I will forever find it necessary to do what I have to do… what I am called to do… I don't want to know anything else if that is the choice I have to make… so it is…
I choose ceaselessly to write, listen, and sing a new song!
