What a world. I can't really say that any songs have made me cry, but when I see a group of people listening to music, or just getting along, and not caring about the outside things that make them different, the superficialities, it just kind of hits me. I'm not one to cry, I've seen to much, but something about people getting along and having fun just makes me all teary and makes me wish that the world could just stop hating and get along.

Sometimes, I just let the POY CD run until I fall asleep and sometimes I put in the Jewelstock tapes. It helps me fall asleep, because I usually have a hard time sleeping. Jewel's music relaxes me. I haven't really cried on any of Jewel's songs. One time, after reading all these posts about the song Painters making people cry, I listened to it and payed close attention to the words, and I darn near cried. But I didn't. I was close, though. The lyrics are very saddening. But one thing that can make me cry is a broken heart. Love is such a damn powerful thing and can totally break down your "manly" shields. When you get in a fight with your girlfriend, and she doesn't even let you explain your side of the story, and you hang up on each other while being mad at one another...now that really hurts. You just want the world to just either stop altogether, or just zoom by a million times faster and just leave you crying and broken. Mark - --- Inside my heart there's an empty room.

Isn't that enough motivation to really get the EDAF off the ground? I mean, after all the Jewel has done for us. She's touched our hearts and shared her music with us. She even gave us Jewelstock. The LEAST we could do is make her wish come true by making the EDAF even more successful. It would be really cool if all of us would post to the list about any really good, angelic things we did for the day. Even if it's kinda minor. It would be really inspirational for us that read it to do good deeds of our own. And that would give us all a good feeling. Mark - --- Inside my heart there's an empty room.

Does anybody else feel the same? I agree. I haven't listened to POY in a long time. Instead, I listen to the angelfood that I have. There's so many songs that I just love that aren't on the CD. Plus, I really like to hear Jewel talk and stuff. Even if it is the same thing over and over again. BTW, I finally saw the Unplugged thing, and I thought it was way too short. There were so many commercials! It was probably too short for me, because I loved it so much. I'm glad that sax player Josh finally used a soprano. It sounds so much better in Jewel's songs than the tenor. And when Josh was playing the sax solo on WWSYS, you can see Jewel really getting into it. She had her eyes closed and her hands and body were moving to the smooth rhythm of the music. That's one of the many reasons I love to watch Jewel live.

Ya know, I think it's kind of strange that people can sleep more easily listening to Jewel... or any music for that matter. Jewel's music does relax me, but it's impossible for me to fall asleep to it because I'm too busy listening to it. I can't just let it be in the background, I have to listen to everything. Of course, sometimes I do end up listening to songs before I fall asleep, but since I never get any sleep and I'm so tired, it doesn't keep me from falling asleep, just makes it a little bit harder. Woohoo, there's a sentence that makes absolutely no sense. I probably don't have to tell you that I'm half asleep right now... that's why it doesn't make any sense.... anyway...

Be SURE that you know what the other one's plans are, so that the other doesn't start assuming things about each other. It seems now that he's trying to give you the "cold" treatment, and making you think that you're not good enough for him anymore. My advice is to set up a time for you guys to talk so you can talk this whole thing out. I mean, everything! So then everything will be stable, and you'll know where each of you stands. It's okay to cry. It helps you relieve the stress. A broken heart can hurt so much. More than physical pain. A kinda broken-hearted angel too, Mark - --- Inside my heart there's an empty room.

You don't have to listen to the music itself. Listen to the message behind the song and think about your own life and how it relates to the song. If you do that, that should put Jewel's music in the background while your focus on your own life and slowly fall asleep. Mark - --- Inside my heart there's an empty room.

I can't imagine what I'd do if I lost my hearing. I'm sure Matt is feeling that sense of raging confusion that I think would take me over if the same happened to me. I really hope they (doctors and such) figure out what's wrong and then get him on the road to recovery.

I will pray for you for a speedy recovery. your friend also told us that you love music, this is great because besides true love there is nothing greater then music, it can lift you up when your feeling down, it can set your toes to tappin when your just standing there, it can bring back a fond memory of a lost love, it can move you to tears. the world can be a cruel and unforgiving place sometimes, but it balances it self out by giving us things that we love,that make us happy.and your passion is music, its the best friend you could have in the world. your friend told us that you do a radio show on Saturday nights in Boston, will I live in Milford mass, and I will definitely, give you a listen, because some one that loves music as much as you must do on hell of a show. keep your sprits high my friend because theres a pot of gold at the end of that rainbow. Peace and Love to you.

Of course I had to stop and help. But isn't this what we as EDA's try to do anyways. I did not have to stop and help, burt I did. >> That's great :-) It's nice to know that ppl still help others like that. Just one caution though - please, my angels, be careful when you do this - it's dangerous to stop and help a stranded motorist. Yeah, I can count the flames now, but unfortunately, this is the world we live in. My advice is to either call the police and let them know there is a stranded motorist and where - especially if you have a cell phone, or stop at the next gas station or whatever and ask them to send help to the motorist. It's sad, but I remember about 10 years ago, when I lived in WV, there was a rash of rapes and attacks on ppl who stopped to help a supposed stranded motorist - and it turned out to be a ploy... And this was an area that the residents of the surrounding area would never have even considered any danger in stopping and helping..... I'm not saying that anything bad will happen if you stop to help, but it could - so be cautious, and safe :-) Love you all :-) Tammy :-) ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 28 Jun 1997 10:11:54 -0400 (EDT) From: Tlcathome@aol.com Subject: Re: NJC: Boston EDA's and surrounding areas...

I've noticed a whole slew of mail on the list recently about the EDAF. It's great that people are giving it thought and trying to decide what they want to do with it. I just weanted to clear up a little bit of confusion- a lot of the letters mention wanting to help make the EDAF, or make sure it doesn't get forgotten about, etc. Not to worry, guys. Right now one of the main goals of the EDAF is getting legal papers and stuff for being a charitable organization/non profit thingy ( y'all know what I mean ). Lovable Lawyer Larry is working on it as you read this. So nobody worry; it's not going away :) Yay ! There have also been a lot of discussions everywhere about what we each would like EDAF to be. At this point the EDAF has been discussing the same thing. It's getting very interesting; all that anyone knows so far is we want to help others and/or give recognition to those that help others. At this point, I don't see any ways that we could go wrong ! I also noticed a few posts saying basically that the EDA's didn't "need" the EDAF... that the EDA's handled the JPK fundraiser wonderfully on our own and can continute doing the same thing. However... I hope everyone realizes that if it weren't for the EDAF, we most likely wouldn't have done that at all. It was a EDAF run project. Imagine 1,100+ individual people trying to run something like that... I just don't believe it's possibe :). So, guys, keep those great ideas rolling in ! Tell the EDAF about what you'd like to see them do, or if there are any specific causes you see that need attention... The EDAF discusses every possibility. The EDAF obviously doesn't work without EDAs ! :) Love, Rachel ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 28 Jun 1997 10:25:03 -0400 (EDT) From: CornflkGl@aol.com Subject: NJC : Adopt A Newbie just wanted to let everybody know that all the AAN pairs are gonna be done today ( saturday ) 'cause I'm laving for Florida on sunday.
