It's Better To Finish Than To Start...

had a conversation with a good friend of mine, because i was feeling a bit blah, and it was great to get the call.  we talked about living a life of artistry while being inextricably rooted and grounded in the Lord.  we talked about letting go and moving on.  we talked about moving forward and feeling loss.  all of which sets up this post.  been doing it for a while and it dawned on me that probably nobody reads it.  then i sat back and began to think - well, who the heck am i anyway?  why should anybody care who coco street is or what you have to say?

i shall sing and play for an audience of ONE.

that's right.  who cares anyway?  nobody.  i am doing this because God made me able to do it.  and it makes me happy.  and it glorifies HIM because i'm doing what He gave me the ability to do.  it would be nice if i could connect with other people, but that's cool.  i realized today that GOD sees me... and that's quite enough.  

so what will i finish?  if the Lord is willing, my dissertation.  all the songs i have to finish.  all the songs yet to sing.  retraining myself as a musician, videographer, songwriter.  all the conversations i never finished.  all the laughs started, and then stifled.  all the hugs, laughs and shared pizzas.  i'm gonna put on a concert, for the Holy Spirit.  why not?  even if nobody comes.  i will plan it, and rehearse for it - and perform with all my heart and soul.  maybe i'll invite others to perform for Him too.  who needs an audience of humans?  we only need the Lord, and everything else will be extra gravy.
