The Difference

I’ve been skimming a book for the past year. I pick it up and read bits and pieces of it from time to time. It really is one of my favorites. The author is the pastor of a church that isn’t so sure that the church as a whole is as relevant as they should be. I don’t mention the name of the book or the author because what I get out of it might not be at all close to what the books motive is. None the less, there is a statement in the book that says “I knew it was time to do my own thing when I realized I didn’t care how big it got.” He would have been just as happy with 20 likeminded people meeting in someone’s living room every week as he would have been with 10,000 likeminded individuals meeting in some building. I’ve come to this same conclusion with my music. The number of people that are eager to listen doesn’t change the fact that I’ve got something to say and I choose to say it through music! With that being said, several thoughts pop into my head. 1. Who do I choose to listen to? 2. Why do I listen to them? 3. How does it affect me? Those are questions I’m asking myself and the substance of my next few blogs. Do you ask yourself these questions, and what are the answers if you do……? Would love to hear your thoughts!
