For suffering through all of the reading you have to do on my blog, I have a gift for you – some cool music. I realize it may seem cheesy to post a bunch of “moving” music here, but a wise person once told me, “If it’s genuine, then it isn’t cheesy.” From me to you, this is genuine. Try to leave your inner cynic in the coat closet while you watch these – while you listen to these. And actually listen to them. Actually listen to the words. If people can be moved to action by a sports team, a national anthem, or a heartbreaking love song, then we can be moved by a plea to set our world right.
