Everfound Rock the Halls in Russian
My favorite Christmas song('O Holy Night') + Russian = AWESOME! :)
Like what you see? Please feel free to check out the band's website, http://www.everfoundmusic.com/. Sposiba! (Thank you!) :)
The Beatles - Can't Buy Me Love (Live)
"Can't buy me love, everybody tells me so/Can't buy me love, no no no, no/Say you don't need no diamond ring and I'll be satisfied/Tell me that you want the kind of thing that money just can't buy/I don't care too much for money, money can't buy me love..."
I Don't Believe in Coincidences, And This is Why... :)
I don't believe in coincidences anymore--only in divine appointments. It seems that one story amazingly leads into another, and into another. God the Author has created beautiful stories, each one a chapter that is contributing with countless others into what seems to be a never-ending myriad of mellifluous melodies for His glory. Since meeting Ruslan Odnoralov, keyboardist and guitarist from the band Everfound at the Lifelight Christian music festival in 2008, I especially have refused to give any credit to "chance" or to "luck." At first, my conversation with Ruslan didn't seem like a big deal, but what has come as a result from it has made quite a series of wonderful impressions on my life. Little did I realize at the time, that, had I not walked into the merch tent that Friday afternoon, I would not have met so many AWESOME people! I thank God that I just 'happened' to walk into the merch tent, 'happened' to walk over to Everfound's table, and just 'happened' to talk with Ruslan, and become interested in Everfound's music. The following year, Everfound was at Lifelight again. While waiting in an autograph line for them after their show, I met an incredible friend of mine. Her name is Amy M. She is so sweet, and is very dear to my heart. After meeting Amy, another great story began. During this past year at Lifelight 2010, I was walking through the merch tent, and heard a voice behind me cry out, "I LOVE EVERFOUND!" I turned around and saw my soon-to-be friend Aiste M. standing there. She is such a delight, and also is my Russian-learning buddy! Here another great story began, as well. These are just two of the melodies that are being beautifully played out in this overall indescribably amazing song of the Master Musician's, with "I don't believe in coincidences anymore" being but six of the lyrics in the chorus that is my life.

Driving Through the Black Hills in October
 |
| Black Hills, South Dakota, USA~2010 |
Driving through the Black Hills in October
I look out, and see the autumn colors
And sip my coffee and gaze at the snow
That adorns both the ground and pine trees' gold.
The heater's warmth and voices conversing
Blending together with pine trees's scent
Create a beautiful memory here
As we go through the Hills in October.
~2010~this was inspired by a car ride that I went on during the day in October last year... :)
