I think one of the basic tasks in life - one of the nice things we can do for each other - is to take things that are horrible and scary and make them acceptable and less frightening and if possible funny. It feels great to succeed at that.
I took guitar a while back and my heart wasn't in it at the time but I'm ready to try it again. I sing in the car at home - it's a huge part of my life especially since I'm from Tennessee.
