In this thread, I will offer mp3's of music for thoughtful days. This is my personal thread, but consider the music to be my offering to each of you. Many songs will have themes, or journal messages, and I'm interested in your responses to them.

Thanks you all for finding links on youtube, because I can listen to songs on there....there and whatever Empowered did to Heather's music to make it play on my computer. I had asked him to try to put his original music in that format so I could hear his music, but I guess it was too difficult, or un-doable altogether. Anyway...I love U2, always have. And Phoenix...I like alot of what you mentioned here too, thanks!

I consider this very special, that you would take the time to place this here in a format accessible to me. I thank you so much because there is very little music on this planet that doesn't speak to my heart in a significant way. This was very special to me. And, by the way, often I come to the threads where the music is available to me - and I listen with my eyes closed, and my heart wide open.....thanks so very much!

I had forgotten about this song because I no longer have a cassette player in my car and it is still on the list of albums I want to replace with CDs/downloads.

"Shelter" by Lone Justice

Lyrics: http://www.cmt.com/lyrics/lone-justice/shelter/3114508/lyrics.jhtml

This is one of those bands I used to play over and over and over again as every track on their albums was different and worth the attention. Lone Justice (and Maria McKee solo) don't really fit into one genre, they were rock, country, blues, folk and alternative rolled into one. I think this type of music was once called "cowpunk". I do believe a trip to iTunes is now in order...

Watch in high-def, full-screen. Beautiful, hopeful music.

Your homework assignment is to create a phrase for your palms, like in the video. :)

Okay, this is the kind of music I like, but the words to this song is rather uplifting. It is by Nickelback and is on their new album. Song is called "If Today Was YOur Last Day".

My left palm would read...I am hopeful,
my right palm - I am healing.
