Something Silly

While in the midst of major writer's block, and yet wanting to post something on here, I came across a "tag" that a friend of mine had given me long ago. I didn't do it then, but it seems to be the perfect time right now.

So, here is what the deal is. It is a questionnaire....but you have to use song titles from a playlist (in my case, my MP3 player) for your answers. Sadly, most of my songs aren't on here yet.....

However, I want to state something for the start. Everyone has different standards when it comes to music. I will confess that I listen to many various genres (yet I always make sure the lyrics are not offensive or sinful) That said, there might be some of you who don't do anything but classical or anything but Christian. That is totally fine--the Lord leads people in different ways when it comes to things not made obvious in scripture (a dear friend did a wonderful post on that)

With that out of the way, here we go!


If someone says, "Is this okay? "Indescribable" by Chris Tomlin (doesn't work...but this question doesn't make sense =)

How would you describe yourself? "All-American Girl" by Carrie Underwood

What do you like in a guy/girl? "Forever By My Side" by Eric and Leslie Ludy (a beautiful love song about purity)

How do you feel today? "Bring the Rain" by Mercy Me

What is your life's purpose? "Your Grace is Enough" by Chris Tomlin (because no matter what, I want to send the message that God's grace is ALL you need to make it)

What is your motto? "You're Gonna Miss This" by Trace Adkins (If we don't pay attention, we are bound to miss moments that are so vitally important--because life inevitably changes) OR "Whatever Will Be, Will Be" by Doris Day

What do your friends think of you? I don't have anything for this one........

What do you think of your parents? "When Mama Prayed" by Randy Travis

What do you think about very often? "When You Say You Love Me" by Josh Groban (okay, so I dream and pray about my love story =)

What do you think of your best friend? "Thankful" by Josh Groban (I am so thankful for my friends!)

What do you think of the person you like? "Brothers" by Dean Brody (an amazing song about the love of siblings)

What is your life story? "How Great is Our God" by Chris Tomlin

What do you want to be when you grow up? "Then" by Brad Paisley (You have to know the song =)


What will you dance to at your wedding? "When God Made You" by Newsong (I love this song)

What will they play at your funeral? "Just a Dream" by Carrie Underwood (No, that's the song they would play at my husband's funeral)

What is your hobby/interest? "Dreams" by Eric and Leslie Ludy (it is an instrumental piece...and I love to play the piano)

What is your biggest fear? "Forgiveness" by Jim Witter (I am always afraid that I would have a fight with someone near and dear...and not have the time to ask for forgiveness)


Alright, so that was A LOT harder than it thought. The majority of my music isn't on my MP3 (which accounts for there being no Steven Curtis Chapman on this list)

Anyway, if any of you find this even remotely interesting, which I doubt, you do it yourself.

I contemplated doing this but after reading yours I'm not quite sure how well I could do! You did draw my attention to some new songs which does excite me!

I LOVE You're Gonna Miss This by Trace Adkins. IT actually makes me cry, as I was one of those people who missed alot of really good years because I didn't appreciate them at the time. Wonderful message in that song.

Love,
Mom

I've had somewhat of a writer's block as well. Being home, there's always something else to do! Plus, I couldn't really relax until I got my room mostly organized. =)

I enjoyed reading this fun post! It's neat how songs can be used to describe different things.

That was a fun tag Ella! While reading it, I realized that I do not know that many songs that are out there...that's left to my brother:) He knows LOTS.

Have a great Saturday!!

Great post Ella! Sorry I haven't stopped by in a while... life is just now slowing down a bit (maybe). Loved getting a peak into your music playlists. I have most of the songs you like! We must have similar musical tastes. :)

Hope to visit here again soon.
God bless!

I hear ya! (about having writer's block) This was a fun quiz, and I love the fact that we have similar music tastes. Where did you get the piano music for Dreams? That's a beautiful song. I'll be replying to your email soon!
