Wonderful world

by Jordan Barnett
(Monroe, Michigan, USA)

My story:

I was very depressed and unhappy with my life, I didn't want to be alive. I was a drug addict and alcoholic.
When I was at the very end, I knew I had to either get on living or get on dying. I decided I wanted to live and did a 24 day water fast (which is where you only drink water and thats it..to clean out ones system) I also gave my life my to God, and when I came out of the darkness and back into life again, the chains were broken and I was able to see life very differently.

I recorded this video of me playing "What a wonderful world" because it was how I felt. Alive and well again. Sometimes when life gets you down you just have to cry out to the God who made this wonderful world.

Wonderful Way To Play
by: Anonymous

This is the first song I learned on piano and I chose it because it is the best, because every time I play it or hear it I am lifted. The way you play it is wonderful and better than any other way I have seen so far. I wish one day I could learn how to play it that way. I am just a novice. Great job! Thank you.

Hi Jordan,

I was very impressed and touched by the content of your letter and the beautiful way you play the piano.

G-d has given you a gift Jordan - you are so talented, and you play the piano so touching and full of warmth.
I am so happy that you have chosen life, and I'm sure that G-d is happy too because you can touch so many people sharing your music with them. Sometimes in our life we feel so down that it is hard to find any hope. Jordan, always remember - the piano gives you hope; you play from your heart and soul and you help people to get connected with their souls.

Thank you for sharing your inner thoughts with us which are sure will give hope and strength to other people too.

"Thank you for your lessons. I took piano lessons as a kid, and I've dabbled off and on for years. My music teacher taught me how to read music and hit all the notes, but I never felt like I was playing for real. I always felt like I was going through the motions, like a machine. Your lessons have changed that, so thanks."

Joshua White from U.S.A
