I had a good weekend, and some very interesting discussion with some very talented musicians. Sometimes I'm not certain if I appreciate how lucky I am. I ended up discussing "finding words" and writing lyrics to music that you find is difficult to express in words.

It is, and if you make mistakes in pronounciation I will work with you and Deirdre until there are none. It works, I finally feel as though I've written something from the heart and not from what I remember other words are like.

better than, "if you make mistakes in pronounciation i'll kill you," which is kinda what i was expecting...

That's really interesting, and I think I understand what you mean. I play violin, like you, but I've never written any lyrics. I'm not much of a writer, except here on LiveJournal.

Perhaps when I hear your songs, I will find the inspiration I'm looking for to unleash... whatever needs to be freed inside me.

A thousand unconsidered words may be nothing, but one sentence given careful thought and feeling can change the world.

Exactly. You have such a way with words, I'm envious.
