How I did it
It made me
suffer 
How I did it: Really not much of a trick...I was attacked at every turn...sight, sound and spin...All I had to do was be present, awake and ready to absorb some punishment...I would rather be tortured...Oh wait...I was and am every election season... Read how I did it…
It made me
thrilled 
How I did it: Pretty basic...took a look and then headed to the parts department of the local Honda dealer...looked up the exploded view on their computer and purchased part number 72470-SV1-003 drivers side door outer pillar trim...came home and installed myself... Read how I did it…

When your soul...

is already damaged.
Music such as this can be the spackling paste that smooths the imperfections and fills the voids.
The mere thought that some other people can or have felt the emotions and anxieties that you have is healing.
This song is a mild example of what I’m talking about.

Today in the morning...at one of my deliveries,
7 hours ago
there is a hard working young girl that is an employee
of one of the companies.
She is refreshing and friendly.
Her family is caring, loving and supportive.
They are members of the Mormon church
and are all excellent human beings.
She talks to everyone as being on an even plain of existence…an equal.
She works
and she goes to college.
MWF is work
and T TH is classes.
She pays her own tuition
We talk openly of philosophy
and of religion…and she shares
She brought me a Book Of Mormon and some supplemental literature.
I’ve never known any of the Mormon faith to talk openly with an “outsider”
She spoke to me of the criticism that is leveled at the church by some outsiders…
I told her that although I didn’t believe in the concept,
I did believe in the miracle of faith and love
that guides ones life with admirable values and goals.
What can be gained by mocking faith and belief?
Other than to hurt and belittle
when you don’t see the beauty that can exist.
Families and individuals like her and hers are shining examples of the good…
I am proud to say I have friends such as her
that can trust me to advise them when they may have a question or concern…
We have talked of many things.
She has told me of things she avoids.
We have talked about music…For to me, music is a force of great power.
I learned something from her today.
There was a suggestion of swapping mixed CD’s
She asked if the content of my CD for her would contain music that would damage her soul.
I thought long and hard about that…
Because a lot of the music I listen to soothes my damaged soul.
Hence the power it has.
I have never heard anything put the way she said it.
It was beautiful…
