Midnight Sonata
Last night we had a free evening so we were able to head out into downtown and enjoyed the Chicago Jazz Festival that was held in Millennium park. We listened to several great bands play but probably the greatest highlight was listening to the Charles Mingus Big Band play several numbers composed by the great Charles Mingus.



















Today we told our life stories / journeys of faith to each other, and there was much rejoicing. It was good to get to know people in deeper ways and get a greater appreciation of our differences and similarities. We put on our wall a little plaque that states a certain goal we have here, we desire to celebrate each others differences.

    Yes, I do admit the Mingus Band was the best, but you only listened to 1 and a half bands. You are making an unsupported statement that I find quite insulting, having sat through the entirety of the program. I suppose exaggerating the story is your literary right and I shouldn't hinder that with the details of your story. You were simply trying to tell an optimistic story, and I should acknowledge that effort since it's hard for Eeyore-like-people to be optimistic. I am sorry, Kevin, for criticizing your story.
