Music of the Sphere




Drudge report shared this article about a neat discovery. Our sun makes music! :D

It makes a harp like set-up or wind instrument sounds. Imagine, if you can, a harp of fire 60,000 miles long!

Hero...unforgotten favorite



This song gave me goose bumps from the very first time I heard it on the radio  in the early 90's. Given that I married a hero-minded guy with an undeservedly bad rep, it meant a lot to me. I found it coming to mind  again lately as I thought over our life together. Once again we have hope that matters will be set right...and I still believe in my hero.

Its hard to believe such a thoughtful song isn't more famous. One day I'll find the cd that has it. I wonder if it even had its own music video. No one seems to have one for it online. Curious

[Edit: the replacement I found seems to be the original promo music video. yay!]

It was one of those great stories that you can't put down at night
The hero knew what he had to do and he wasn't afraid to fight
The villain goes to jail while the hero goes free
I wish it were that simple for me

And the reason that she loved him
Was the reason I loved him too
And he never wondered what was right or wrong
He just knew, he just knew

Shadow and shade mix together at dawn
But by the time you catch them simplicity's gone
So we sort through the pieces my friends and I
Searching through the darkness to find the breaks in the sky

Our Great God



Right before one of the scariest of DH medical adventures, a Christian friend felt led to share some music to encourage our hearts. The timing was very blessed indeed.  I was going to need to hear them in the days to come, while I waited prayerfully for my beloved to wake up.  I could feel God's promise as I listened to these hymns, and as I read God's Word, that He would take care of us, and that our family back at the house would be safe too while we had to be away. God continues to guard, guide, and provide for us - despite all the alarming situations we've had to face and all the garbage that has been thrown our way. Suddenly this song is speaking very powerfully to my heart again, so it seemed like a good time to share this with you. heh, its even the same audio. The pictures & verses added are not a bad touch, though a tad distracting.... imho
