Unexpected “Blessings”

You know that cheesy song that Garth Brooks sang back in the early-199os, “Unanswered Prayers?” Well all I can say is that, it might be cheesy, but it is also dead on. Seriously, dead on. Have you ever taken a moment to think about all the heartbreak that you have experienced? Heartbreak that was in […]

Indulge Me

Can we talk about Glee for a minute? Just for a minute? Oh my gosh…it is the cutest thing ever. I watched it for the premiere for the first time last night and fell in love with it. Combining the all-to-identifiable high school angst, a passionate teacher, soulful song and dance combos, a blooming romance, […]

This song is so beautiful. And the lyrics are POWERFUL. Here […]

This Is Probably Politically Incorrect But…
