Change is good?
Ok... So i've been thinking a little lately about change, marketing, promoting etc... Not for any particular reason at all, just because i guess you could say... I've been pondering the statement often used (and especially in the Church) that change is good... So in thinking about this i was led to the music world where everything that is known is promoted very heavily and i observed a few things...
... First of all you take an artist like Christina Aguilera... How in the world did this girl last past one album, never mind the amount of attention she is getting 6 years into her music career... I'll tell you one big observation i've seen with Mrs. Aguilera and that is that she is never the same. If you look at all 3 of her albums you will notice a different style of music in each disc... but that's only a minor part of it... Her look has taken drastic changes each time around, her image is never the same for any album, and her attitudes etc.. are ever changing in the press... Maybe people like change and this is proof of that... Her first album portrayed her as a pretty inocent teenage girl with some pop flavour... then came the drastic, excuse me for saying skanky image, with her second album which featured a different tempo of music and many trashy lyrics... now we see Christina as a Marilyn Munroe/Madonna wannabee and you know what?.... it's working... isn't it?... Her popularity is getting larger and people in the music industry are taking her more serious and giving her more respect album by album... Whoever is running this show is doing something right... Each change is not only shocking and inviting to the public, but is renewing her and people are almost seeing her as a new artist every time... Is Change a good thing?...Can this be proof that people get tired of the same old all the time and they need something new?.... Can we as ministers and family of the Church learn from this at all???... is it blasphemous that i suggest we learn something form the music world?.... Continued under next heading...

Very thought provoking blogs your blog maniac. I think change is neutral in general... depends on the circumstances around you. Change can be a good thing, like for example, asking questions that determine future plans approx. 8 months later.. and can be bad, like... buying a blue shirt instead of brown.
You humor me Misses... Change is unpredictable eh.. shopping at the Gap helps that out though... Anyways i need a change of scenery, later!
Ok so this coment is in regards to both this and the previous. I think that there is a certain comfort in familiarity. I mean look at God he is the same now and forever and always will be. And I think that change is a good thing but you have to be careful on how much you change and why. Anyway I took up your advice and started up my old blog. most of my old blogs or nothing good but I think I like the new one. http://sufferyoushall.blogspot.com/ There is the link.
