Soundtrack of our Lives

Been renewing acquaintances with George Winston, that fantastic new age pianist, whose music was the soundtrack of my life during law school and my turbulent relationship with my first girlfriend. I highly recommend you score some of his music (especially Colors/Dance from the "Autumn" album and Living Without You from the "Summer" album, though they're very hard to find now. Believe me, I tried to get some for my iPod, but it was hard.

Come to think of it, I've carried a lot of baggage from those years, perhaps until now. But if there's one thing that was good about it, friends have always told me how great I carry my load. If I didn't open up, they wouldn't know I had a lot of problems.

I think it's just my jovial disposition and my faith that keeps me going on. And then, of course, there is the music (the soundtracks of my life), plus my gadgets...

Oh, because of a conflicting appointment, I could not show up for choir duties over at the EDSA Shrine yesterday. That's two in a row. I have to make up for these two no-shows somehow...

Tomorrow is Mother's Day, that day invented by commerce to stir up sales. I believe that day, like Christmas, should be everyday. While we're at this subject, that girl is scheduled to visit tomorrow, if at all. I'll tell you what happened tomorrow.

Have a happy weekend.

At 7:55 PM, Punzi said...: Glad we share the same interest in the guy, sir.

I'll probably have a relative buy his CDs for me. But for me, Autumn is the best. December (some of the tracks are really seasonal, but that's the point, right?) and Summer are not far behind.

I have this thing for depressing music, you see.

Side Prayers

PRAYER FOR GENEROSITY
Lord Jesus,
Teach me to be generous,
Teach me to serve You as You deserve
To give and not to count the cost,
To fight and not to heed the wounds,
To toil and not to seek for rest,
To labor and not to ask for reward,
except that of knowing
That I do Your Holy Will. Amen

THE LAWYER'S PRAYER
May every word I speak be from Your Truth...
I ask come from Your Wisdom...
May every case I handle receive Your Guidance...
May every heart, every life I touch, feel Your Love.

THE JABEZ PRAYER
And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying,
"Oh, that You would bless me indeed,
and enlarge my territory,
that Your Hand be with me,
that You would keep me from evil,
that I may not cause pain."

So God granted him what he requested.
