Did you know that you can download music in mp3 format to listen to on your iPod or MP3 Player? I am sure that most of you knew you could, but have you? I was talking to a teenage neighbor of mine the other day, and he said that he had nearly 4,000 songs on his iPod! Serious?! Apparently I am not hip to all of this stuff, but, after hearing that, it really made me think….

At one time I thought that I had a lot of music, I think that I have probably close to 100 cd’s but, I have since rethought that, and come  to realize that I really don’t have that many compared to some. This also made me ponder on what it is exactly that everyone is listening to…4,000 thousand songs? I like lots of music, but, are those really all songs that this kid listens to? Are there any in there that shouldn’t be? Are there any uplifting or spiritual songs in that group?

I surely hope that out of those 4,000 songs that there are some good songs in there.  Now, this kid isn’t a bad kid…he’s a regular every day teenager…but, what is the norm? I am not saying that having hundreds if not thousands of songs is bad, because I don’t believe it is…it just really stirred my thoughts about what is being listened to, and for what reasons.

That last thought is kind of worrisome looking, but, my whole point is that, with that many songs in one little player, what are we or our children constantly filling our heads with? I must confess, that I listen to more worldly music than church music, but, I do try to make sure that what I listen to is not foul (I really don’t like that kind anyway) nor does the music have lyrics that I wouldn’t want my children to hear. That being said, there is so much good music available, and it isn’t all just LDS music. We just need to be careful of what we are putting in our minds and thoughts.

If you are looking for good music to occupy some time while you are walking or while you are running around doing all those “things” we do each day, you might try going to the churchs website and downloading some hymns or primary songs to take along with you!
