"Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent."
Have you ever heard a song and fallen in love again? Have you heard a song that makes you want to get up and dance no matter how badly your body feels?
Have you hummed a song in your mind, and as the lyrics ignited your emotions, thought "That's what I really want to say ....."
What does music do for you? Name that tune!

The Creation of Beauty is Art
I just can't get enough of words. Your words, my words, Brian http://www.waystationone.com/ and Pat's http://rhymetime24.blogspot.com/ poetic words.
And then there's my friend Georgie. Her words come through Tweedles http://tweedles-georgie.blogspot.com/ and are nothing short of magic. It's almost as though Mother Nature is singing from that blog.
My sister-in-law has a blog that supports homeless people. There is simple beauty in her blog and her mission is art to me. Sandy's http://homelessbridge.blogspot.com/ blog features crocheted items for the homeless.
What is art? To me it's words. To you it might be something else.

My mind is whirling. What kind of art do you create? Where there is art there is joy.

Here we go....
I don't know how the weather is where you are but it's been a long winter in Ohio. Normally I ride my horse Tango all winter long. That makes winter easy to take. I'm outside but I don't mind a bit. I love the snow and cold and each new day holds adventure for me...usually.
I broke my knee in the fall and haven't been able to do much. The dark gray skies are not very cheerful. For the first time I can remember I NEED SUNSHINE!
So, with that in mind finish the following sentence with the first thing that comes to your mind:
If spring doesn't get here soon I swear I'm going to...

My Confession
My name is Jan Mader and I'm an addict. What am I addicted to you ask? Words! Big words. Little words. Squeezed in words and specifically...
Words With Friends!
I'd like to say I'm ready to stop playing but that's just not the case. I could play Words With Friends till the cows come home. I play in between reading my emails. I play Words with Friends while I'm in a doctor's office. It's better than reading magazines I tell myself. Who knows what kind of germs are on the pages of those mindless reads! I keep my germs to myself.
I play Words With Friends while I talk on the phone. I play while my husband watches TV. After all, I tell him, my mind is working while I'm playing my game. Your mind is just being entertained.
I play Words With Friends while while I drink my morning coffee and until well after bedtime. Time zones have become my friend.
And speaking of friends....some of my best play Words With Friends with me now. I'm hopeless. Not only am I an addict I'm creating addicts.
I'm sure at some point my new favorite thing to do will get old, but for now I don't care. Isn't that what all addicts say? I don't care. If 'it's not a problem for me so why is it a problem for you?
Gotta run now. I'm sure there's a word that needs to be defensively squeezed somewhere!

I'm Afraid
Everyone has fears and insecurities. Chances are we bury them somewhere deep in our minds just because that's the comfortable thing to do.
I was just thinking about some of my own fears...seriously...and how I'm going to handle them and decided it might make a writing exercise.
So with that in mind, what's the first thought that comes to mind when I say:
I'm afraid.....
