While all of you read and highlight your many copies of the book, I will be reflecting on how I will be changed after I read it. I am a Chords of Strength virgin for a few more days.
But for many of you the long wait is over. Having followed the career of David we have peeked in on his life as much as any fans are allowed. What new stories have given you an “A-ha!” moment? He wants us to know him. How has the perspective of these new facts changed your David experience? Has an understanding of how his mind works when he is not in the public eye altered your perception of him? We have a personal connection to him through his music. Has glimpsing the true depths of his emotions caused you to better understand the choices he makes for himself? Hanging on to the last shred of our current perceptions, the public David we are familiar with has become the private and REAL David we were not. In photos we have seen the outward maturity. It took so long to adjust to a simple thing like hair growth over these last few months.
Growing a new perspective might be an adjustment as well. Are we up to the challenge of leaving the youthful David in the past, of having the new mature David in full control? There in black and white, we meet the whole person that is David Archuleta for the very first time.
It is June 1st. Time to share your thoughts.
This is an invitation to all to speak out.
