Here’s another edition of the Thursday Evening Post. 🎵

My next show is coming up next weekend, (Sunday, February 23, 2025 | 1pm to 4pm CST | Wisconsin Brewing Company/Lake Louie Brewing) and I CAN’T WAIT! 💙

Do you have several passions? Or, do you primarily feel passionate about just one thing?

I have MANY passions, which makes it hard to find time to fit in all of them! 🤣

Something I LOVE to do is paint miniatures.

Here is a support weapon that I painted for my Ynnari Warhammer 40K army. Do any of you play Warhammer?

I tended to procrastinate when it came to finishing painting this miniature, so I’m SO HAPPY it’s finally finished! 😁

Valentine’s Day is tomorrow! 💘

What do you enjoy doing to celebrate Valentine’s Day?

I THOROUGHLY enjoy making and eating chocolate covered strawberries. 🍓🩷

I recently heard a BEAUTIFUL song on the radio that I wanted to share with you. I actually wanted to share it last week, but I couldn’t figure out what the song was called in time for last week’s post! 😂

The song is “Danny’s Song” by Loggins and Messina.

Lyrics:

People smile and tell me I’m the lucky one
And we’ve just begun
Think I’m gonna have a son
He will be like she and me, as free as a dove
Conceived in love
Sun is gonna shine above
And even though we ain’t got money
I’m so in love with you, honey
And everything will bring a chain of love, oh, oh, oh
And in the mornin’, when I rise
You bring a tear of joy to my eyes
And tell me everything is gonna be alright
Seems as though, a month ago, I was Beta-Chi
Never got high
Oh, was a sorry guy
But now, I smile and face the girl that shares my name, yeah
Now I’m through with the game
This boy’ll never be the same
And even though we ain’t got money
I’m so in love with you, honey
And everything will bring a chain of love, oh, oh, oh
In the morning, when I rise
You bring a tear of joy to my eyes
And tell me everything is gonna be alright
Pisces, Virgo rising is a very good sign
Strong and kind
And the little boy is mine
Now I see a family where there once was none
Now we’ve just begun
Yeah, we’re gonna fly to the sun
And even though we ain’t got money
I’m so in love with you, honey
And everything will bring a chain of love, oh, oh, oh
And in the morning, when I rise
You bring a tear of joy to my eyes
And tell me everything is gonna be alright
Love the girl who holds the world in a paper cup
Drink it up
Love her and she’ll bring you luck
And if you find she helps your mind
Better take her home, yeah
Don’t you live alone
Try to earn what lovers own
And even though we ain’t got money
I’m so in love with you, honey
And everything will bring a chain of love, oh, oh, oh
And in the morning, when I rise
You bring a tear of joy to my eyes
And tell me everything is gonna be alright

When I heard “Danny’s Song” in the car, I only caught the end of the song and was most moved by the lines:

And in the morning, when I rise
You bring a tear of joy to my eyes
And tell me everything is gonna be alright

That’s so moving! ❤️

Writing this week’s blog post was the first time I looked at the lyrics to the song. Oh my goodness! It’s SO BEAUTIFUL! It makes me want to cry! 💚

People can be such TALENTED songwriters! You can just FEEL the LOVE in this song! 💗

What do you think of the song?

For me, Valentine’s Day isn’t about celebrating romantic love; it’s about celebrating LOVE in general!

May your Valentine’s Day be filled with LOVE! 💜

If you’d like to support my mission to share my passion for music with the world and spread joy, love, and positivity, you can do so here. Thank you! ❤️
