Depression Clothing, Music, The Civil Wars and Taylor Swift

Did you watch the Grammy's last week?  I don't normally but I'm glad I did.  I mostly watched it because I've loved Adele since I first heard her a few years ago.  I've noticed in the press they've been saying that the outfit that Taylor Swift wore for the performance of her song  "Mean" was terrible but I honestly liked it.  It worked well with the depression era song, which I think reflects the times we're facing.  I know it was a hollar out to her critics too. 

I actually am a fan of the retro shirt waist dresses and loved the lacey slip farm house look.  Very cool I think.  Isn't the hat cute on her back up singer?

My favorite part of the Grammy was seeing "The Civil Wars" introduce her.  Cute and funny.  But I LOVE this duo!  Their voices are amazing together. I just love John Paul White's voice.  And no they're not a couple but sure would think they are.  Joy Williams is so cute and has the most beautiful, lyrical voice.

And by the way, does John Paul White remind you of someone else?

He could be a stand in for Mr. Johnny Depp!  Although no one could really replace J.D.

Just sayin.........

Everyday is to be Cherished

 A new day starts.  It's filled with possibilities.  It can start on a positive note or a negative note but where it goes depends on you.  I pray that each of you (and me too) find a way to see the good in everything that comes.  A way to turn the negative into a positive.  I hope you see all there is to praise our Father for and glorify his name in all you do.

 After my morning prayer and asking God for words to share, these were the ones I opened my Bible to see:

Living in Light of the Day ~ Romans 13:11-14 (NLT)

  This is all the more urgent, for you know how late it is; time is running out.  Wake up, for our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed. 

The night is almost gone; the day of salvation will soon be here.  So remove your dark deeds like dirty clothes, and put on the shining armor of right living.  

Because we belong to the day, we must live decent lives for all to see.  Don't participate in the darkness of wild parties of drunkenness, or in sexual promiscuity and immoral living, or in quarreling and jealousy.

Instead, clothe yourself with the presence of the Lord Jesus Christ. And don't let yourself think about ways to indulge your evil desires.

So how will you show your love today?  Will you be the inspiration for someone having a bad day to wish they had your joy and want to find their own?  Will you be the light of God today?

My suggestion....fall in a good mood today.  Find joy in the least of things.  Love the moment and leave the future in God's hands.  Find the child in you today.

Side note:  All the pictures were off the internet except for these last two.  I could cry when I see the joy my Grandchildren are finding in their day.  The top one is Zach and the bottom one is Ki'a with their neighbor.  They raked these leaves for the soul purpose of fun.  What a great way to enjoy your day!

Love Ya'll......Tracy :)
