Silent Sunday

Have a Blessed week ahead My Friends


Throwback Thursday
Growth

🦋 Cee’s Flower of the Day – FOTD 🦋
Growth is a forward momentum. Like a caterpillar, we morph into new stages and spaces and spreading our wings, we learn to fly for the first time. Then we learn to fly farther and higher. Growth takes risk. Yet, the caterpillar does not worry about the next phase. Perhaps ignorance is its bliss. For us however, sometimes it is in facing challenges and moving away from our comfort zone that we learn that one of the strengths of growth, is courage.
Can “knowing too much” hinder our growth? Can blind faith be more beneficial?
I accept risk, even when I am afraid.
I am proud of myself when I dare to risk.
Accepting risk as a part of life, empowers me.

Throwback Thursday
Jeremiah’s Chorus Line
Largo
A throaty bass begins in accented whole notes – strong and steady.
[Here, an echo from the back of the choir]
Adagio
Then the lead baritone adds some spark, squeezing in a few, nicely-measured, half notes.
The bass is holding his own however.
Now, faster and faster, chirp in some eighths.
Allegretto
The parts become a little sketchy here, and the plot thickens in the swamp.
Enter, Dissonance
Tenors add some high staccato bursts!
The rest of the choir joins the melee.
Allegro!
Forget the rests. Drop the stops!
!Affrettando!
It’s sixteenth notes now jumping off the staff and bouncing around the score.
It’s a roar!
~
Then fading, we begin to see a break in the clamor.
A tempo
