Working with Jack Graham is such a treat! \u00a0If he was only a wonderful workshop leader, or a world class shooter, that would be enough, but he’s a hoot to work with! \u00a0What most folks don’t know is that Jack was, prior to being a shooter, a great musician. \u00a0He played trumpet with some big bands, (the Jimmy Dorsey Band), \u00a0and artists like Frank Sinatra!! \u00a0I love music and when we work together a lot of time spent in the car is listening to some great jazz, which he knows a lot more about than I do! \u00a0On this workshop he taught me about resolution<\/span> in music, something that I have to admit, was new to me. \u00a0As Jack explained, music uses tension to hold our interest and then it builds until we get “resolution” and that is when we get happy with the music. \u00a0I thought he was pulling my leg until he played some examples. \u00a0He was right! \u00a0So it got be to thinking, most of the things in our life work the same way. \u00a0We work through the tension, (everyday life), and then we are rewarded when we reach a resolution point. Resolution is the healing affect of coming to the “good” part.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Our spiritual lives are the same, we go along lost and wandering around separated from God and His love, then we get it, we wake up, we realize what He is offering us and wham, RESOLUTION!!! \u00a0One more great thing that came out of our workshop. \u00a0Thanks Jack, I learn something great every time we get to work together! \u00a0Now, \u00a0if I could just figure out what I bring to the table!!!???<\/p>\n
