what to choose:

i have three things i want to write about.
i'm not sure which one i'd like to go off on...

classical music.
dancing.
loves.

i've always enjoyed classical music. 
my favorite composers are bach, tchaikovsky and pearlman.  
my favorite classical instrument is cello. 
i have no idea why i'm rambling about this? but owell, continuing on... 
my choice of music goes in waves and right now it has found itself once again after a long hiatus on classical music.  before that it was on gansta christian rap like lecrae.  obviously, my taste in music is vast. 
anyway, classical music has held a ridiculously amazing spot in my heart the last 3 months.  there is just something about it that rocks my soul and evokes some gnarly and beautiful emotions out of it.  
listen to cello suite no.1 in g-major by yo-yo ma and maybe you'll understand why my heart is speechless when i listen to it. 
i think i love this music so much because it doesn't care who listens to it or who plays it.  if you've got soul, the music will play and it will grip others souls. 
i think that's why some people cry during live performances of classical pieces.  something in the sound coming out of the instrument captures the soul of the person playing which in turn takes the listeners' soul captive during that small frame of time.  
i believe it's god reminding them about something. 
they realize they are not as important as they like to think they are. 
that there is something else. 
something that words cannot attach themselves to. 
they know. 
listening to this music, there is one thing i think of: 
the only way this creativity came to composers like bach, tchaikovsky or pearlman and to the countless musicians that have played their pieces is through the creativity of the creator of the universe. i just cannot bring myself to agree with the happenstance theories when i hear music like this. how can you tell me that man was randomly pieced together while you listen to this music that doesn't even have to have words yet, it still attaches to your soul? 

well that's enough. 
the other two trains of thought will have to wait because it is time for sleep.

oh and happy valentines day : )
i love you.
but jesus loves you most.
