Linking up with Ramblings and Photos!

I was sooo busy this week I completely forgot about the prompts. :P So some of these I had to pull out of my archive. Oh well, it's still fun! :)

1. Mainly One Color

 Fall is my time of year. I love the colors, the smells and all the fun photo opportunities.

2. Around the Home

Home is where the heart is. And my heart is in music, specifically the piano. 

This picture is of my treasured piano that a local church gave to me this year. I am so grateful! It's been such a huge blessing.

3. Reflection

 WhooHoo!! Reflections are one of my most favorite subjects! =D This is one of my best reflection shots this year.

4. Writing

Can you figure out what this photo is of? =) It's [part of] my and my cousin's height measurements on our grandmother's wall! For this prompt I was going to do a picture of my huge collection of letters from my pen-pals, but being away from home prohibited me from doing so. :)

5. Water

Water is another of my favorite subjects to shoot. =) I'm still working on perfecting this shot... I've figured out a few things I can do to make it better but haven't had time for a re-shoot.

Props to Matt for the sink inspiration!

Healing

Is there something special you often do when you're upset, confused or sad? Perhaps you read a favorite story to yourself or curl up on your bed and have a good cry. Maybe, you run around in the grass in your yard to loosen hard feelings. What is the one special thing that is healing to you?

    

    

For me, it's music.

     

    

    

I almost always sit down at our piano and play Fur Elise, one of my favorite classical pieces. Every once in a while I might compose a new song. I go straight to the piano when I'm extremely happy, or extremely sad. It helps me unwind when I'm overwhelmed or discouraged. I'm so thankful for the gift of music that God has given us! I've played the piano when I was grinning so big I could hardly hit the right notes, and I've played it through my own tears, sometimes banging on the bass notes of the song I was playing. I often pray while I'm playing the piano. It helps to take my thoughts and feelings to my Saviour, Jesus Christ. If I can't get to the piano, it helps me to sit on my bed (have a good cry,) and read the Bible and/or Spurgeon's Morning and Evening.

      

So what about you?
