wellness

wellness is important.to be well you have to be well inside.for me to be well is to know that regardless of what people think of my work or what i say or how i say it,its me.its how i am.
they must make a choice.accept it or deny it.
i am one with christ.i make mistakes and we all do.
recently a friend who i shall not name said i would like to hear your new album.i said sure have a copy!
i said you may not like it.
she said "there has to be some thig on it i will like!"
i was kind of silly and i said welp..you win the race"
she said what race?
i told her i had another friend that said"dont expect me to like it"
she was perplexed and asked why wouldnt he like it?
i said i dont know.he has not heard it yet!
she said he was a blockhead and was not a true friend then.
i said he is indeed a true friend and yes he is indeed a true blockhead too.
why would anyone close thier minds so badly that they would tell you they would not like something prior to hearing it?
the devil.
he puts blinders on people!
especially if the person could be usefull to the other person.
now i dont expect that friend to like my cds at all.if he said he liked it id gag.
he will not like it.no matter what he really feels inside he wont give it a chance.he wont probably even bother playing it and will just tell me he doesnt like it anyway.
why would i be friends with a person like that?
because he has served me in other ways.his ignorance is bliss..well..not bliss.stupidity.
but his ignorance is not his fault.
his blinders will keep him from liking a cd he probably would have enjoyed.
long long ago my brother took me to a used record store in boston..back in the late 70s.
i bought many many lps that day.one of them was the beach boys 'pet sounds"
he said why did you buy that!???
that stinks!
i said why does it stink?
he said all brian wilson ever wrote were bad car and surf songs and sloop john b is on that.its crap..put it back.
i said"havent you ever heard 'god only knows?
it came out ten years ago!"
by then i assumed nobody in the world had missed such a gem
but somhow my brother who was extreemly versed im music had indeed missed it..or if he had heard it he had never really played pet sounds.
i said im buying it.
its 3 bucks man.its near mint and better yet its mono!
so i bought it and took the train home to rhode island.when i played it i suddenly had the misgivings my brother may have been correct because there were only three songs on it i liked!
but the next day i played it again! and again..and by the end of the week i could truly understand what brian wilson was trying to show us.
that he COULD do an lp of non surf or car songs and an album about his deepest inner feelings.i love that lp.to this day along with billions of others,pet sounds is one of my favorite albums.
but back then nobody liked it.
my point is this.before you go giving somone a narrowminded reply or you claim something is crap..open you mind..open your ears!
if brian wilson had listened to the other beach boys and the fans "god only knows" wouldnt have come out" and man what a song nobody would have heard
people need to open thier minds and ears and stop playing god with peoples music.justin timberlake seems to be as far as anyone will go these days.or maybe they find one christian band and they whorship that one band(thinking they are really whoreshipping god) and even worse they may have closed thier ears for good which is a sin.
thats all for now
i truly hope non of you have gone this route because if you have you will miss the next big thing to come out.it may be out now.perhaps some guy or gal out in denmark has a hit waiting to be discovered and everyone is saying how bad she is because she has pigtails........
