My life is brilliant, my love is pure...I saw an angel of that I'm sure

Happy Friday, guys! I hope your day is fantastic so far. I have such a fun thing to show you today...I have been waiting and waiting...seems like forever.

A couple of months ago, Julee announced that she was going to make a super special commemorative set to celebrate Verve turning one. She asked all the Verve Divas to pick out a quote that meant something to them, and then she compiled all the quotes into one AMAZING set!! Cool, huh??

So here's my quote...it's one of my very favorites of ALL TIME. You ready?
 
Whatcha think? It's totally me, right? At first glance it reminds me of the movie Amadeus, when the opera big wigs tell Mozart that he cannot have the dancers dancing while music is playing because they think it's vulgar. So he has them continue to dance with no music, and they look ridiculous. (And he wins in the end...they let him play the music with the dancing.) 
Silliness aside, once you look a little deeper, you see that it means so much more. Those of you who don't know me very well may not know that I live and breathe music. I am constantly singing, sometimes crazy songs. This quote reminds me that no matter how crazy a situation or a person seems, you may never know the circumstances behind it or what that person is going through. If you don't hear the music, it seems crazy...so try to stop and listen!
Ok, enough sappy stuff. If you want a chance to win this set...check out -->THIS POST<-- . Have a wonderful weekend!!!
