Letter #8

Dear @TheFray,

Today I heard your song "Heartbeat" on the radio for the first time today. It's probably been on the radio for a week or so now, but I've been listening to my iPod, so I haven't had a chance to listen to the public radio.

Can I just say how blissful I felt? It makes me giddy and I get a bubbly feeling in my stomach like I just drank a bunch of soda pop. My heart starts to flutter like I've been kissed for the first time all over again. That rush of excitement and adrenaline that people's dreams are coming true. Not just anyone's dreams, but your dreams.

I can't help but know that you give me hope that I'll accomplish the things that I want in life, and I too can have an uplifting and positive affect on those around me. It's not selfish to wish that we are good influences; how is it so bad to hope for something so good as that? One half of this world tears us down by calling us prideful and selfish in thinking that we ourselves can help others, but I see the other half of the world that calls us to come to aid with our own abilities and talents to help those in need.

Thank you for your talents and love, that you have enough of both to share and bless the lives of those who surround you.

xoxo,
Erin
