Happy birthday to my wonderful wife koreycooper !! As those who know us personally can attest, korey is the heartbeat of our family; the lifeblood of the band; and the glue that holds it all together. She makes outsiders and the lonely feel like family. And she does all of this whilst being the baddest, sickest, age-defying and most insane stage performer ever. So today, I want to celebrate by listing some things I’ve learned from her:

1) it’s the quiet ones you have to watch out for
2) sometimes the most powerful people come in extremely small packages 
3) sometimes introverts remain quiet, not because they have nothing to say, but because they’re startled at the ridiculous and stupid things that come out of other people’s mouths 😂 (haha umm, yeah, I’m talking about me. GUILTY AS CHARGED!!)
4) living for yourself is pointless and empty, and leads to nihilism. On the contrary, giving yourself to the needs of others leads to contentment and satisfaction. 
5) Don’t be prideful. Whatever gifts you’ve been given weren’t based on your merit, but by the grace of God. “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” (James 4:6)
6) whatever you do, do it with all of your heart, for the glory of the One who created you. 

Happy bday babe. 
“Delight yourself in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart.” (Psalm 37:4)
