sleeplessness

I can't sleep. It's 2am and I have to be up early for church in the morning. Phooey...Oh well, it's giving me opportunity to write a blog--I'm obsessed--read a good book--all hail the genius Tolkien!--and listen to Waiata. :) I love music.

Really, the reason why I'm writing is because of the music. I was in the thick of depression a year and a half ago, and at the end of last spring semester, I was unable to listen to music and be moved by it. It became a passive activity, which compounded my sadness since music was always something that hit me. Before depression, I couldn't listen to music without feeling stirred deep within. Then I had depression and everything changed.

Things have gotten better since then--so much better--but I can tell that it's taken time. Slowly rebuilding to where I was--if that's entirely possible. Anyhow, I listen to music now and I feel it again. I have one very special person to thank for that...and he knows who he is. :) It means so much to me that I can enjoy music like I used to.
