At first glance the title for my blog may not make much sense. "Collection of Goods" was taken from the title of a song by my favorite band Collective Soul. Ed Roland, the lead singer and songwriter for the band, writes some of the greatest lyrics I've ever come across. Ever since I first listened to their self-titled CD all the way back in 1995 Collection of Goods has always been one of their great songs to me.
Resonate tones of saving grace
Separate from the gods of hate
Alleviate all out doubting ways
Congregate to more loving days
A collection of peace where we could live
A collection of hope for us to give
A collection of words that mean we care
A collection of love for us to share
Recognize all equality
Vocalize solidarity
Exercise your tranquility
Glamorize all of love's needs
I thought it was fitting to use this for my blog title since this will be where I can compile my "goods": events, thoughts, reviews and the like. If not already familiar with the song you can use the link provided above.

Great song! Never heard it before...it just proves that I'm officially old and no longer "current on good music." Anyways, "Collection of Goods" is a great title for your blog. Hope to see you soon; the kids always enjoy when you stop by.
