Mannnnn what a day today!

[vibing to Sonia Prina, Contralto...]

today has been a good day/evening...

I've been cool...maintaining...gotta thank Ruach man for the peace...

Work was HECKLING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The entire state wide swim team decided to decend upon this lonely

little inn in one fell swoop....my goodness it was personality after personality and much much work. But my shift is almost over and i'm prepared to get home and chill. I think I will read before I head off to bed...

I ordered two operas today, Strauss' Elektra and Salome with Leonie Rysanek and Teresa Stratas in the former and latter...then I purchased a book on the Countertenor or Male Alto method of teaching by english voice teacher Peter Grimes as well as countertenor, David Daniels cd, Les Nuits d'Ete. Im so stoked about resuming my voice lessons...I know i'm nearing thirty but man...i'm about to sieze this moment...i'm about to work and exercise this particular gift Yah has placed in me for His glory!

Isabelle Ganz with Alhambra performing

I sent off two emails, one, to my current voice teacher to tell her we would be resuming voice lessons in March if its good with her and one to a former voice teacher from Lamar, Dr. Isabelle Ganz who performs sephardic spanish/judaic music with her music group Alhambra. I wrote her to ask her about hebraic/jewish/aramaic classical music that I can start learning to go along with my learning spirituals, sacred music, lieder, some arias and such. I know that Yah will open the doors for His glory in His timing but I'm GOING to be ready like no ones business...so today in my free time i've been finding all kinds of little stickers and images that talk about the coolness of being an Alto...LOL I crack myself up! Well its getting toward the time to start wrapping up this shift.

...I did speak with my publisher who shared with me news about securing a place for an event he will be putting on to debut both he and my work as well as finding a way to begin the process of printing my book and then taking the cost of the printing out of the proceeds I get from that book. He figured that people would be more inclined to buy the book if they actually saw it! LOL

I'm stoked...I'm 29 years old and even as I type this i'm slightly uncomfortable yet excited about what lies ahead, but sober enough to know that the most important thing under The Kingdom/His Righteousness right now is making certain that my HERE AND NOW is stable and secure and in right standing with His plans and acceleration. I can't ever make it to the greatness of tomorrow and the fulfillment of 'conditional' prophecies spoken over my life IF my HERE AND NOW lacks order, settling, established rooting etc. So right now...i'm like...'where am I? whats going on?' getting the basics...learning to listen and see more than I speak, learning to apply more knowledge than seeking it out, learning to embrace and love the me that I am RIGHT THIS MOMENT, learning to face and embrace my failures and fears etc. and move ahead without them, through them or even with them...the important thing is to keep moving. I don't know what Yah is molding me into or whats being accomplished but even now my stomach is dipping and turning flips in that nervous exitement...so we shall see...thats all we can do while making certain our HERE AND NOW is settled and in right alignment. Wow what a time indeed to be living in...in the last stages of my 20's heading toward a fresh, restored decade of living...my 30's...that moment in time where lights come on, where one seems to move into the fullness of stature and wisdom, when one begins to really walk in maturity in the will of Yah...fulfilling and completing His every extended assignment on time with excellent results etc. This is that time i'm moving into. I'm all at once awed, scared, excited etc. Recognizing I don't have time to waste the precious commodities of time and energy...this time...this NOW time my time and energy, my life force...must be stewarded correctly...can't afford misappropriations of these two valuable gifts...wow!

Dr. McCullough speaks well about Stewardship

So thats where I am...as I prepare to end this workshift...and foremost in my mind is Zechariah 3:6-7 and the glaring fact I NEED YOU YAHWEH...I CANNOT MAKE ANY TYPE OF MOVEMENT WITH OUT YOU. YOU ARE MY COMPLETE PORTION AND SOURCE! ~Selah
