what does that even mean?

So I must admit that I deliberated far too long on the name for this blog.  I feel like a loser.  I didn't want to come across as trying to appear witty or intelligent, but I stumbled across the word "refrain" and thought it matched what this blog is about really well.
You see, I didn't want to write a blog about my family life...Sandy already does that and does an awesome job at it (seriously, if you haven't read her blog yet, check it out...I love it!)  I wanted to write about two things that are rattling around in my head all the time...God and music.  The word refrain obviously has two definitions, and I think they will relate to what I'll be writing about.  When it comes to my thoughts on God, I don't want to hold back...I don't want to keep my thoughts to myself, because their might be some value in them.  Our faith is often just safe, what we see other people doing or what we grew up understanding....that is out the door for me...that's not faith....faith requires some stretching.
As far as music...a song without a refrain is a terrible song.  I love finding new bands and new songs and will take some time to talk about some of these songs and artists with you....and if I'm ever feeling brave enough, maybe I'll even write about something I've written.  Good luck with that.
So if this sounds interesting to you and you can deal with my conversational style writing and my poor usage of punctuation and grammar....check in from time to time
