Three years ago, I had the privilage of taking a fine arts class in the middle of beautiful, art-filled Italy. I had been a person who listened to and appreciated music, but it was after that class that I found myself falling in love with music and the arts far beyond my shallow adoration that rarely made it past my own art pad or my headphones.
Tonight I am writing from a table in Chattanooga, TN where I am enjoying the quarterly finals of an open mic competion held at a local coffee shoppe/Anglican Church. I find myself blown away by the performances that I have heard and I find my soul refreshed in listening to the creative works of these artists who have poured themselves into lyrics and ryhmes. If you have never been to an open mic, I would encourage you to go out and find one in your community and enjoy :)
