Playing for Change

i know that music play a great role in our lives. the interview was grat and i felt chill bumps when listining to the songs. music is hope. it gives us hope to go on when we don't feel we can. it gives us hope to overcome and it even motivates us. but overall it gives us hope for change. i am glad that this assingment was given, now i have a cite for my paper.

Thanks Dr. MT.

♫ Give Thanks ♫

'Just thought I'd share this piece of music by Don Moen. It's really warm and heartfelt. I'm not at all a deeply religious person but, for some reason, listening to this song truly touched me.

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire.
If you did, what would there be to look forward to?
Be thankful when you don't know something,
for it gives you the opportunity to learn.
Be thankful for the difficult times.
For it is during those hardships that you learn to grow.
Be thankful for your limitations,
because they give you opportunities for improvement.
Be thankful for each new challenge,
because it will build your own strength and character.
Be thankful for your mistakes.
They will teach you valuable lessons.
Be thankful when you're tired and weary,
because it means you've made a difference.

It's easy to be thankful for the good things.
A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who are also thankful for the setbacks.
Gratitude can turn a negative into positive.
Find a way to be thankful for your troubles,
and they become your blessings.

Playing for change

wow this video gave me chills and made me realize we still have hope to bring and reach peace around the world. I used to do community service a couple years ago and this video reminded me how good it feels to do something productive to communities in need. I have also been encouraged to become active again on helping others. We need more Mark Jonhsons in this world who despite all the things that separate us such as politics, religion, egoism; he finds something simple as music to bring human beings around the world together to do something that brings joy and happiness to the lives of many. Sometimes we need to stop for a minute and appreciate the beautiful things and people that surrounds us and that if we do not give back and help each other, we are only going to keep destroying each through wars, conflict, differences that are not worth fighting for because after all we only need each other to work as a whole to live better.

Info about the political survey on survey monkey

Hi everyone,
I came and talked to everyone yesterday about taking the political group survey on survey monkey. I just wanted to leave this post w my contact info in case you had any questions, fperez11@calstatela.edu. I am also having a book and bake sale next week in front of king hall 11/30-12/01. Hope to see you all out there and good luck with your papers.

Playing for Change!

I watched this film in another class that professor Tabor teaches but it still amazes me how Bill Moyers, put so much work and dedication in this video. Ten years with 100 musicians wow that's love for music.

Tuesday

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving on Thursday!
Enjoy the theme song from, "Charlie Brown's Thanksgiving"

Monday

Playing for Change

So, I have just finished watching "Playing For Change" and I must say... the concept of the video was incredibly put. The funny thing about it is that my dad previously bought the song and music video through the internet about a month ago, so I had the firsthand opportunity to see and hear the entire track :-P

Sociologically, I find it interesting that individuals from all walks of life share the same love for music... it goes to show that no matter how conflicting our lives get, we somehow find ways to see the positive side of our situation. All too often, we immerse ourselves with our problems and forget to look at the bright side of life. Hence it's especially important that we take the time to thank our blessings each day... :-)

I am getting an "A"

I thin my last paper has good potential to finally get an "A"...oh yeah not going to wait until the last minute either, wish me luck people!

GREEN GROUP

For those of you that were not in class today, I will be sending an email with all the survey results. If you guys have any questions, please email me.

Rise to the occasion

It is never too late to become the person you might have been.  OK - finished reading AM papers.  As has happened in the past, the last paper on the stack knocked my socks off.  It had some technical errors, but the spirit and purpose was great.  If it wasn't your paper, you still can do it!  You have two more chances.  A significant topic, passion to see, insight + technical excellence can still get you far.  See final:   http://sorenkerk.com/301/301%20final%20exam.htm
