singing

It's always hard for me to believe that someone just can't sing. Maybe it's because it's like my "thing", I wouldn't be who I am if I didn't sing. It's such a big part of me, actually, music is in general. I just can't imagine being happy if everyone around me is singing and I couldn't. It's such a fulfilling thing to express yourself with music. That's seems kind of narrow minded, I'm sure, but it's just really depressing to me. A lot of people in our musical can't sing, and they know it,. they can't hear the notes and they get so frustrated. Some of them just have never had any training though, and that would help. My brother just got the lead in their musical at Oklahoma Baptist University, and I can't wait to be in the college performances. He's going to be so good.
In our musical, many of the girl's wear some rather risque costumes and they almost treat that like it's a privilege. Like, oh look, I have the smallest costume so..i dunno. It's disgusting. Kara and I have really made an effort to catch ourselves when we start gossiping, as girls tend to do, and it is very hard sometimes. We've gotten to wear we look at eachother and just stop talking. There are literally dozens of verses about not gossiping in psalms and proverbs, so God obviously impressed it on david's heart. Why? Because it can lead to soooo much trouble. I can't tell you how many people I have known who ended their friendship over gossip. IT's really not that hard to stop, well I say that, but actually it's just very hard to catch yourself.
I once knew a girl that wrote verses about gossiping on her telephone so that when she started she would see it. Good idea I think.
