Before reading the PR statements (listed below) I listened to the CD they put together. To be honest, I thought ‘Pizza Ranch’ was some sort of silly band name, but it didn’t matter to me. What mattered was how good the CD was, because that’s why I’m reviewing it, right? Initially, my post was going to start with telling you this compilation of music totally inspires a sense of hope. Until I read it’s purpose, now it’s got to start differently. Only, I don’t know what to tell you.
Guess I’ll just go…. On the three hour trip back to seeing our little blessing I began to listen to the CD Pizza Ranch has put out to inspire Hope, not knowing it’s purpose. Let me tell you, after almost 7 months of our little one being in the hospital, imagining going home (that hope that things may get on to the ‘new normal’ soon) becomes harder and harder. As a parent, I keep praying and waiting (and I know it will happen) but some days are hard, others harder and that trip back and forth to the hospital, living there and only visiting your home and pets, is taxing. Frankly, I think I should be paid in advance, at least 20 years worth. Regardless, by the third or fourth song in, I was feeling hopeful about life in general, about everything. The rest of the music brought the same good feelings of hope.
Although those at Pizza Ranch who took on this project and put it together may never know the effects of their project on everyone, but hopefully they read this and know that they did make a difference. More importantly, I hope that you’ll buy the CD and it will bring you some hope and happiness as well.
