MUSIC SPEAKS 'OF' ME

My dearest Spider over at A Spider's Web in Thornton Park just had to beat me to the punch and post his results off a borrowed meme from Jake over at Jakely Justified. He seems to be doing that a lot these days. Didn't he just do this to Sorted on a meme?! Hehehe! In any event in this meme you describe yourself using five (5) song titles. Mine have no thematic thread tying them together. They merely befit my personality traits or describe me. And unlike my east coast friend, Spider, I stick to the rules...I have five, not ELEVEN! (Again LOL - you're such a good sport Spidie!) I have left a brief description of what the song says of me.

• Over The Rainbow (Eva Cassidy version)......Speaks of my desire to dream.
  
• Get Over It (Eagles)......Talks about that occasional urge to be impulsive, to literally tell the world sometimes, "take this and shove it!" Gosh, I wish I did this more often. TO LIVE!
• Once in a Lifetime (Only You Soundtrack - Michael Bolton)......It tells of the romance within me and the hope in finding that one element in my life that says 'LOVE.'
  
• Mayberry (Rascal Flatts)......Tells of my simple nature, perhaps the occasional naivete that still exists in me. How I miss those days when my life was simpler!
  
• Climb Ev'ry Mountain (Sound of Music Soundtrack - Peggy Wood)......Perhaps best speaks of the inspirational/spiritual being within me. Of the tenderness locked inside searching to come forth, to be accepted and embraced unconditionally.
  
  
  
  
  
  

Now, without breaking any rules, every GREAT album (ME) has a bonus track. Mine is: Ain't No Mountain High Enough (Michael McDonald)......Have to say that I am true to the bone as a friend.

So there you have it, ME.....a dreamer, a searcher of life, a romantic, a simplistic man, a spiritual being or rather a man of faith, a true friend. Do I embrace all these readily everyday of my life? I sure try but I am human. I don't always succeed. Nor am I in perfect sync with them - yes conflict does exist. But this is who I am.

Thanks to Jake for sharing this post. I actually enjoyed putting some thought into this meme challenge. Y'all have a great weekend. Be sure to check out Spider's blog next Wednesday, 9/27, 'cause there's gonna be a special post about me. You never know what you might learn. And a special shout out to 'Smiley,' that would be my bud Josh! Wishing you the best as you take those steps onto the path of the next phase of your life...they'll be just as memorable as those gone by! Hugs!
