enya and stuff

My thoughts on the Enya CD - And Winter Came are that it sounds like typical Enya. If you like Enya you will like the CD. It is not offensive. It is just lovely background music. It is not Handel, nor Bach but, it is quiet and melodic.

I went through an Enya stage just as I met my husband. He introduced me to Bob Dylan and I introduced him to Enya. I had cassette tapes. Can you imagine?

I am reading a new book Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell

I read his book The Tipping Point a couple of years ago.

I sense change happening. I have been rereading Thomas Merton and delving into his later writings.

It is very cold here. I am waiting up for my husband as he was chaperoning a grade 12 dance at his highschool and the roads are icy and I am nervous for him.

And so I have Enya on the CD player.

thanks for the words on the Enya CD.

i find some of Merton's later writings a bit problematic theologically speaking; he is a beautiful writer. i studied him in my undergrad days in BC...

hope your DH got home safely.

I went through an Enya phase too, but I've not heard that album.
