“why don’t you sing, Wyz?
we have a choir here you know?
it’s great for the spirit
and a great break
from the daily tasks?
You hum or sing
to yourself all the time
you actually sing
under your breath all day long
music is such a huge portion
of your day…
why don’t you sing?
is it cos you don’t think you can?
everyone can sing you know
the voice is a tool
and like with any new tool
practice makes perfect..
why don’t you sing??”
“because I cry”
was my reply
the human voice never ceases
to amaze me
harmonies rock my world
and for a non-christian
I am ever moved by works
like the Messiah
this Random Act of Culture
made me weep all over myself this morning
so
I can’t sing in a choral group
because I lose complete control
and become a wet sniveling snotty mess
hardly lovely
and hardly conducive to carrying a tune…
but boy howdy! ya ought to hear me in the shower….
