How I Started Making Peace with the Mirror (and other inanimate objects!)

Tuesday, September 02, 2008 - Comments 0

Blogging for us today is our friend Michelle Watson, a professional counselor and instructor at an eating disorder graduate program in Oregon. Enjoy.

This past spring there was a segment on the Today Show that sought to debate the question, “If you had to choose, would you rather be 40 pounds overweight and smart OR skinny, but stupid?” What an intriguing and yet hard question to answer! If you were honest, would you admit to leaning toward being a little less smart if it meant you could hold on to your version of what skinny looks like?

I first met Dave and JJ when they played for a chapel service here at Remuda Ranch. Immediately I fell in love with them and their music—it fits my style of creative folk/rock.

But that’s not what this blog is about.

In the email Dave had attached an unmastered cut of a new song they had recorded (co-written with Andrew Osenga from Caedmon’s Call). That in itself was cool enough—I figure I’ve got it made if recording artists are sending me their music before the public gets it—next thing you know the Jonas Brothers are going to be asking me to appear in their next movie on Disney Channel… But what was even better was that the song was written with the True Campaign in mind!
