At the moment, I will be "On a Journey" that has by some accounts been in the works for several years. I find the most difficult part of traveling is being away from the tunes that are the soundtrack that reminds me again and again, the vine grows. And much like any vine we generally find it a both unwieldy and determined. For several months now I have enjoyed this tune, but haven't shared it as of yet. Since I will be in LosAngeles the next few days traveling with the Choir from MCC, I thought while im out would be a great time. The moment I encountered "The Weepies" I knew I had stumbled upon a spirit I knew. And Like Daniel, it is most likely going to change you. So enjoy, and may blessings be upon each of you~ The D vine
A friend shared this a few weeks ago, and it definately grabbed me as a "same lane" song. It is not really well known, or easily found but worth a spin!
A Short Reflection on this months issue: I guess in a sense, the monthly go-round of putting the monthly publication together is my version of throwing around some color. The inside joke has been that no matter how many times I "proof" an issue, there is always one glaring typo. And it has almost become a sense of questioning where it will be, and how it will make it's presence known. Those of you further down on the vine remember that Daniel often put typo's in his writing to prove a point. Perhaps the point is that perfection is something unattainable, or an even more benign method of simply saying "I'm still here". Either way this month's blunder would be none other than that I misspelled my own name... how about that :) I think the best and only thing to do is just call it out and allow it to be whatever it is. Peace & Shalom, Colby
