In His Radiance

You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a peck measure, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house. Let your light so shine before men that they may see your moral excellence and your praiseworthy, noble, and good deeds and recognize and honor and praise and glorify your Father Who is in heaven. Matt5:14-16

Man's Best Friend (when the dog's on holiday)

Well really the title isn't very appropriate because it is me on holiday not the dog, but anyway...
what speaks personally when you sit alone in the lounge, brings memories of times that you once had, creates visions of people that for some reason are never forgotten? What sparkles emotions just from a quiet beat that touches, for a moment, in parallel, the beat of your heart? The Answer is Music. And I still listen to music i loved 2years ago, 5 years ago, 7years ago, and those songs each remind me of the circumstance i was in at the time. What i did back then, why i listened to the song, who i meant the lyrics for...
None of my new update of songs are so much these old, recalled songs, that speak personally to me. But these are songs which, though they may be old in some cases, are new to me and will one day perhaps be a memory of how i am today, because when looking back on what i was like it is easier to understand myself, things i never even knew about myself come to surface. Here is the new update.

Cutting Crew - Just Died In Your Arms Tonight
U2 - With Or Without you
Bob Sinclair - Love Generation

And of course the Parachute 06 songs...
Anberlin - Paperthin Hymn
Day Of Fire - Fade Away
Delirious - Now Is The Time
Reuben Morgan - World Through Your Eyes
Juliagrace - Tin Cars
Parachute Band - Shout
Magnify - Fill Me
Form - In Kight Of This
Mozelle - What About You?
The Valley - Sorry When You're Smiling
Thousand Foot Krutch - Absolute
Hillsong - Let Creation Sing
Robbie Seay Band - Better Days
Joy Williams - Say Goodbye


And in other matters, Rachel is up in Auckland now and her room is having new carpet put in (even inside her very jam-packed wardrobes) and everything has to be cleared out of it so i will get started on that in my spare time (not like i'm struggling to find time). And i also picked up monday and tuesday of next week to babysit some kids down in Rowley. But that's ok cos i got my thursday off work ( i figured it was too close to Parachute to do any kitchen work).
That's it it for me tonight. past 12 oclock which i guess brings it down to 8 days to go :D

Its funny that you say that about how certain songs reminds you of people and things you have done, I have had that abit recently, remembering good times and people from a few years ago.
Im glad someone else has this happen as well!
