hi carlyn.
I like what you said 'whatever you want to do is the right thing. It all works out as it's supposed to.'
sometimes it's tempting to try to influence how it works out. I guess that's an ego thing. have you discovered any old treasures as you ready for your big move?
Katherine: about the choir you joined. how fun! what kind of music are you singing? I believe everyone can sing. and you're right, it's so therapeutic at so many levels. SING FOR THE BRAIN. I'd like to sing in a choir again. aside from the enjoyment of singing, there's also the joy of blending voices.
I went to the personal care home here this afternoon and played for a nice hymn -sing. I choose low keys so people aren't afraid to join in and I mostly choose hymns that have a refrain of some sort so people can sing along even if they don't know it.
of the three people I shared with, one was a friend suffering seriously from COPD and at the time, sharing seemed right. the second was the minister at the church where I played for services. surprise. the third, my stand-by friend, is having a hard time in her own life. I am aware of adding another layer of stress on her . . .
I have another long-term stand-by friend who has been stricken with some sort of sudden onset dementia. she doesn't know who she is
