Choose this Day

Choose.

There’s always a choice.
It makes us who we are.
Free choice.
Something happens when you choose.
You submit.
You submit to your choice.
Your choice rules you.
Wholeheartedly.
Half-heartedly.
Still a choice.
Your choice.
You choose.

You seek advice to choose.
It’s still your choice.
You live out your choice.
You are your choice.
You choose to change.
You choose how to change.
That change changes you.
Wholeheartedly.
Half-heartedly.
Still a choice.
Your choice rules you.

UPDATE!

It was such an honor to make it to the semi-finals, however, I did not receive enough votes for top 3! THANK YOU to everyone who voted for and encouraged me!

Here is a link to all the FABULOUS finalist in all the categories! I’m planning on attending their performance at Lincoln Center on May 6th!

Toi, toi to everyone!

 

Original Post:

I love to listen to classical music, always have. So, a few months ago, I heard about a contest on WQXR Classical Radio here in New York City. My brain rolled the idea around and thought, I’d like to enter. I was busy teaching my students and didn’t really think about it again. Then, a few days before the deadline, I remembered and told my husband if he would video me, I could enter. He did and I found out this week, I made the semi-finals! I am SO very excited! It is such an honor!

There are 3 categories. Mine is the 35+ category. Each category has 10 semi-finalists and the top 3 in those categories get to perform at Lincoln Center, a dream I’ve had since 8th grade!

You can help me get into the top 3!

Anyone with a Facebook account can go to my page, accept a video contest app and vote. You may vote 1 time within 24 hours.

I would be honored for you vote and then share with your friends and family to vote! Let me know what you think in the comments below!

Help me Hamilton!

I have not posted since my dad passed. Sorry, I just have not made time for it. But I am starting back up for my niece Molly! 🙂

Back Story!

I always wanted my nieces Molly and Maggie to experience things I didn’t get to at their age. So far we’ve enjoyed Walt Disney World, Universal Studios, Hollywood and Los Angeles! Now….it’s just Molly. So, since Chris and I live in NYC, Molly and my sister Diane get to – for the first time – experience The Big Apple! I’m SO excited!!

Now…

Hamilton is the HOTTEST ticket in town and not since Rent has a show made such an impact on the future of Broadway! Molly needs to see this show!

I have instructed them on how to do the lotto: https://hamiltonlottery.broadwaydirect.com/show/hamilton/ so we will be on it like a bonnet!

I’ve not seen the show, but I’ve listened to everything I can online thanks to the Hamilton Website!

Anyway! If ANYONE has any ideas or has at least 1 ticket for my niece in early March, please message me!

My Daddy

On June 9th, I lost my Daddy, my Best Friend, and my Hero! Words can not express my emotions. He was laid to rest on June 13th in a beautiful love-filled service at Downtown First Baptist Church.

I want to say thank you to those who have reached out, sent food, cards, flowers…but most of all your prayers.

I will be with my family for a few weeks as we sift our way through this loss.

Daddy was a strong man of God and I know that he is with Jesus, Maggie, and all those who have gone on before him. I too will see him again one day in glory!

Praise be to God for Daddy’s amazing life and the legacy he left behind!

Memorials can be made to either:

-Gideon’s International – P.O. Box 1425, Texarkana, Texas, 75504.
-Downtown First Baptist Church – 401 Pine St, Texarkana, TX 75501
