Got a call from a family member that my little brother posted online that he has one last album to make and then he is taking his life.

He has been messing around with some satanic stuff the past year so please keep him in your prayers.

Already lost my grandfather (by marriage but still very important to me) to suspected suicide last year and really just want this thing broken off in my family.

Make it a long long long album. One that needs at least another 50 years to complete.
Postponement is the best strategy for suicidals.
I pray for anyone feeling suicidal right now. Life can be rather painful or boring or a feeling of pointlessness. We all need endurance. We all need courage. We all need to hang on there for each others' sake.
God Bless

maybe keep me in your prayers too. a lot of old feelings coming up to the surface and i don't know if this triggered it because of another family members suicide attempt at that time, but i am feeling really alone/abandoned/neglected and need God to actually just do something. i just want to go home and not sure where that is yet.

Abba Yah please Breathe deeply into this situation and Speak Life, Love, and Comfort into the heart of this suffering young man and into his family and raise us up into the heavenly places in Yahshua ha Mashiach. Amen.



Shalom sister.

You're highly welcome!

Your family sounds musically inclined. That's nice!

Hey that is impressive. I'm a fingerstyle guitarist btw.
Thanks! :) Me too. Not much for chords. I like neoclassical and classical pieces. Max Richter, Ludovico Einaudi, Beethoven, Tárrega, etc. :D

Haha, yeah. Pretty much all of them play guitar. Took me a long time to catch up. :D Still learning.

That's why the guitars get passed around and rotated like canned pork

Yeah, I'm a late bloomer when it comes to getting around to doing music. I mean, I knew that it has always been in me, and I've always had this sense of rhythm, but I just started learning music theory and now I'm messing around with DAWs and Midi boards...and I didn't even know what all this was until a few months ago...ha ha.

I write poetry and listen to music all day so I thought I'd set about learning how to put it all together!

I'm gonna learn to play the piano since I have this big ole keyboard now...and it's piano...ish...!

Pork in a can...yuuughhh...

Haha :D Yousician is probably the best thing out there to ***start off with*** to learn to play piano, guitar, etc. I meant to tell @Mayflower that too and I completely forgot.

It's like Guitar Hero except you're actually learning and you're not wasting time. Playing an instrument exercises every part of the brain, too, which was part of my motivation.

It looks like this and then you hit the right notes and it lights up and you get a cool score and everything! Poetry is awesome! I quit writing about 4-5 years ago and never looked back on purpose, but I like other people's stuff.
