I have always said that you fall in love with people onstage. Tonight I finally realized why that is. We watched the movie "Once" which is a really well made independent film by the way, if you are into that sort of thing. And its about a girl and a guy who connect through music. And there is this amazing part where she is playing this grand piano- and he has asked her to play one her songs for him and she gets embarrassed but ends up doing it because when you write music you want to share it and you want someone else to be interested in it. Writing music is not a selfish thing at all. It's meant to be shared.
So anyways it shows a shot from his point of view- the way he is looking at her and I realized that the reason that you fall in love with people when they are onstage or while their playing music or while they are singing or whatever talent it is that they have is because they are doing what God has truly created them to do. By witnessing someone showing their talent you are witnessing a part of themselves that God has created for uniquely them, a deep passionate part that can't be fake or deceptive. You can truly see the person and you can truly see God. God manifests himself through our talents. God shows His majesty, His love, and His beauty through out talents.
And we can't help but watch in amazement and adoration.
