I missed your presence in general on the forums. Its funny to describe, but even if you are talking to others it feels comforting fpr me having a sense of positive social vibe on the forums to help with all the difficult things.
I am glad you are putting your voice to some use. Teaching kids songs is a great thing, and yes it will help sustain them in the future. It really does not have to up to special standards, what is important is to give them experience of PARTICIPATION. I have strong feelings about music NOT being an elite thing, but something we ALL can share. Even though I need a lot of quiet alone time, like you, I do have that social yearning.
Yes, nice talking. I am 58 so not such a spring chicken.

Re: Taking the plunge
@Appleblossom I hope your busy week works out as good as can be expected.
Thanks for the general missing while I was absent. Strange how your mind convinces you of so many negatives that are not real.
I agree regarding music, a language all of its own. I can sit with two special songs for years, and have done, still do. Sometimes only music can touch that deep pain and offer a healing caring touch.
58, I have almost 10 on you, 68 next year. Not enjoying the old age freaky stuff. Not much I can do about it though, dropped off the Ark !!!!!
My little dog is chewing a bone her size atm, she puts her heart and soul into it. Yum yum.
Take care. I will keep an eye on your thread if you have time to post.

Today I was sitting in the driveway when the postie arrived on her bike. I was sorting through garden sifting white stones from a section I want to make green with growth. She delivered my one letter, a request for another donation from Sane Australia. I just waved and laughed at her saying something about being a bit nutty and she said I was fine and could do what I wanted in my own garden.
The things we put ourselves through . ...
