Job Interview - Grateful to have 1

 

Last year I had 5 potential full time jobs leads. Still searching this year. Not deterred nor discouraged from honestly seeking work carful to select the correct boxes. Should a degreed person not be humble; I come from humble beginnings and am not above this! For WE walk by faith. Should a person complete a job interview when not at 100 % health rather it be physical, emotional or otherwise or limit themselves? My advice is too move forward anyway! Such sills only add value to a persons worth.  Today a personal blog with the goal to perhaps support the movement of freedom and recovery.- A.T. Yoda Brooks

Biblical Confidence Joshua 1:9

"Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord the God is with thee whithersoever thou goest." Joshua 1:9

Burden to Gift: Worth to give it all away for love or naive?

 

The question I am feeling at this moment in time? Worth it to give it all away for love or naivety? 

Scriptures might support this approach when feeling depressed, anxious, depressed even that dreaded word emotion of loneliness no matter one's age. It is not time to tell "our" for there are more crucial matters at play in the world today.

Our leanings should point towards love in this new era.

Blessings, peace and love.

- A. T. (Yoda) Brooks

Prayer for Peace & Healing (Revised) - Black History Month

  

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. 

Where there is hatred, let me bring love.

Where there is offense, let me bring innocence.

Where there is conflict & drama, let me bring unity.

Where there is error, let me bring truth.

    Where there is doubt & indecision, let us bring faith.

Where there is pain, let us bring healing.

Where there is darkness, let us bring light.

Where there is sadness, let us bring joy.

Where there is isolation, let us bring friendship.

Where there is oppression, let us bring freedom.

    O Lord, grant I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console

to be understood as to understand,

to be loved as to love,

for it is in forgiving that one is forgiven

it is in pardoning that we are pardoned

it is in accepting Jesus, the Christ that

 one awakens to a new eternal life.

Amen.

The Right of Assembly is Biblical February 17, 2025

"And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us, God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. 1 John 4:16. Liking the above Bible verse because it does not mention gender at all.

I am reminded of a Bible verse which discusses forgiveness which is Mathew 18: 20-22

For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord. how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? Jesus saith  unto him, I say not unto then, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven. - Mathew 18: 20-22

The freedom of assembly is an older right even that the Constitution of the United States of America. So students on college campus are to be afforded the right to peacefully protest without being placed in a box. - A.T. Yoda Brooks

Research: How to play an instrument by ear

This would be something I would love to be ale to do is play string bass by ear in addition to sheet music reading. Just a thought - A.T. Yoda Brooks 

The "secret" to playing an instrument by ear is essentially dedicated ear training, which involves actively listening to music, focusing on recognizing intervals between notes, and practicing transcribing melodies you hear onto your instrument, essentially teaching your brain to translate sound directly into finger movements on your instrument; this requires consistent practice and a deep understanding of musical scales and chord progressions. 

Key aspects of playing by ear:

• Interval recognition:

  Learning to identify the distance between notes (like a major third, perfect fifth) by ear is crucial for understanding the structure of melodies and chords. 
• Scale awareness:

  Knowing the notes within a scale and how they relate to each other helps you navigate melodies within a key. 
• Active listening:

  Pay close attention to the melody, chord changes, and bass lines in music you listen to, trying to mentally map out the notes and their relationships. 
• Transcribing:

  Try to play along with a song you're listening to, attempting to figure out the notes on your instrument as you hear them. 
• Improvisation:

  Once you have a basic understanding of scales and chords, experiment with creating your own melodies and chord progressions.
