nashville melodies: looking back
http://nashvillemelodies.blogspot.com/2010/08/looking-back.html
Wednesday, August 18, 2010. The Beauty in Letting Go. Song lyrics have always fascinated me. I’ve had a quiet obsession with them since as far back as I can remember. Just about every lyrics website is memorized and ready for the next search. it's generally the first thing I do when a new song tugs at me. There’s something intriguing about how adding a melody to words can have the ability to create distinct feelings. I digress. (Big surprise.). Isn't that an oxymoron? The beauty of just. Letting go."...

nashville melodies: life at 27
http://nashvillemelodies.blogspot.com/2011/08/life-at-27.html
Monday, August 29, 2011. Raise your hand if your life looks exactly how you thought it would by now. Yeah, me neither. But in a lot of ways, my life looks a whole lot better. Better than I could've dreamed. Better than I would've ever thought to ask God for. But I still think the real life version is better. Yeah, 17 was pretty good. But 27 has a beauty to it that's only come from the tough times in between. August 30, 2011 at 10:36 AM. August 30, 2011 at 3:43 PM. Mark H. Maxwell. I write cause it makes ...

Friday, July 6, 2012. In true form, i've waited almost a year to post here again, but i didn't come empty handed. i have good news/bad news: good news for me: my teeth didn't break at my roommate's wedding. bad news for you: no toothless photos to share. sorry. Other good news: i've finally moved blogs (after landing on a VERY creative web address, might I add.) and I'd love to start the conversation back up. Join me at www.melodyjoywilson.blogspot.com.

nashville melodies: rock bottoms & undeserved love
http://nashvillemelodies.blogspot.com/2009/11/rock-bottoms-undeserved-love.html
Wednesday, November 25, 2009. Rock bottoms and undeserved love. I found out a couple days ago that my biological father has been arrested. I can relate to that. ive certainly known times when i would prefer to sit in the familiar pile of muck than have to courageously overcome the scary faces of change. Sometimes we arrive at rock bottom and set up camp. i did that once. i was stubborn and i was afraid. and i thought i knew best. i was prideful. I shudder to think, what will it take? When Love comes down...

nashville melodies: September 2009

Friday, September 18, 2009. Love from the road. For the first two weeks of this tour, we are traveling around in this thing. not bad. i was under the impression we would be living in a 15 passenger van, but this thing feels like it wouldve been the envy of george jetson if he were into cars. As i sit here blogging away, mr. don miller is sitting next me doing the same thing right here. Me, dave, heather, brent, barb, lindsey, don, susan and larry). Did i mention how thankful i am for this tour? Our litt...

nashville melodies: January 2010
http://nashvillemelodies.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 13, 2010. Some thoughts on titles. Titles. they can separate or they can unite. they can offer simple understanding. they can also make life really confusing. Born to my mom and dad. my name was melody joy adeeb. Mom and dad divorced. mom took maiden name. so did i. my name became melody joy custer. Mom and I moved in with her mom and dad. my grandma and grandpa. i should mention my mom was adopted, so once again, these titles have all been assigned. Mom met her biological mother. ...

nashville melodies: June 2009
http://nashvillemelodies.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 25, 2009. I'm talking to the man in the mirror. That's you. . I'm talking to you. . I must be the 80 millionth person to provide commentary to today's events. normally, i would at least pretend to avoid the cliche, but tonight, i cant help but find the profundity of Michael Jackson's death as completely worth all the thought provoking it's producing. . But who am i kidding? It's sad. . But i'm also deeply sad for the loss of potential. . I hope to graciously communicate this next part....

Tuesday, July 27, 2010. Today I witnessed beauty in it's rawest form. The sight was tough to take in, nothing pretty to calm the eyes. The smells might have been even worse, and the sounds of arduous breathing are now etched in my memory forever, but the beauty surpassed the circumstances. When we arrived to her room, I noticed she looked different than she did when I was with her last night. Her head rested further down, her skin was cold, and her breathing sounded more difficult. Today beauty was strip...
