About Me

My photo
I am a person who loves people, and I try to draw inspiration and find the beauty in everything. I am motivated and passionate about the things I do. I have wonderful people in my life. I have lots of ideas that I don't always know how to make a reality. But that's alright- life's a start.

Happy Happy Friday!

Happy Friday, lovelies! I would like to share some more wonderful choral music and a bit of poetry with you all today. Mind you, I do not claim to be any kind of avid poetry-reader. Rather, I look for good poetry that is used in music, and from there I find poets whose words I enjoy, and consequently, I read other poems by them.


i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
 
i fear no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you
 
here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
 
i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)
- e. e. cummings -
 
 
Please follow this link to hear Eric Whitacre's "This Marriage," you do not want to skip this, I promise. It is drop-dead gorgeous, and I will absolutely insist on having a choir sing it at my wedding someday.
 
May these vows and this marriage be blessed.
May it be sweet milk,
this marriage, like wine and halvah.
May this marriage offer fruit and shade
like the date palm.
May this marriage be full of laughter,
our every day a day in paradise.
May this marriage be a sign of compassion,
a seal of happiness here and hereafter.
May this marriage have a fair face and a good name,
an omen as welcomes the moon in a clear blue sky.
I am out of words to describe
how spirit mingles in this marriage.
-Jalal al-Din Rumi-

"Modern" Thanksgiving

You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown!

You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown!
 
We open tonight! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown!

Alright castmates, here we go! The proverbial curtains rise at E&e Performing Arts Center tonight for our production of "You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown". Needless to say, I am very excited for the show! Below are a few shots snapped by one of our directors.

Counting our Valentines, since we are loved.

Me as Sally Brown, laughing at Charlie Brown, because he didn't get any Valentines.

My good friend Carlos as Linus, dancing with his blanket.

If you live in the area, you really must come check out this show, because it will not disappoint!
 Hope to see you there.
