Journal 27

In the song "Amazing Grace" it talks about the amazing grace God has for us and how much he cares and Emily  Dickinson was a strong christian.  She cared about people and loved God a ton.  She obviously was impacted by God and His grace because she continually based her works off of the song "Amazing Grace" or made it fit to the tune of it.  She either loved God a ton, or she loved music and this song happened to be her favorite.  Honestly I would not judge her for liking the song because it is a very good song and I always sing along when I hear it.  Sometimes I get choked up because when I sing and hear high notes my eyes water up and it gets hard for me.  I always laugh when this happens because it looks funny and i can joke around and say that I am crying and this song always gets me.  This is really getting hard for me to write because I dont have very much information for the length of the blog I am writing and I keep getting distracted.  But I do think that Emily Dickinson liked this song and had good intentions in her life.  She probably was mature at a very young age and  understood that she shouldn't be stupid and ignorant and waste her life because each day is a gift and shouldn't be taken for granted.  This song along with our national anthem are very important to me and I have lots of respect for.  If people disrespect these songs and mock it or don't pay attention and give their respects for it I get very angry and get disappointed with these people.  If I know the person I will talk to them about it but usually thats not the case.  My step dad explained this to me when I was younger and have cared about this ever since.
