I’m a child of the 50’s, a youth of the 60’s, a young adult in the 70’s and woke up in the 80’s. The 90’s were a recap of my life and a journey of who I really wanted to be. Now, in the 2k…. I am finally relaxing and reviewing my life and what I have missed and what I haven’t. (Honestly there is a story there)

Having raised children as a single parent, and my youngest being a severe spastic quadriplegic from birth asphyxia….”Cerebral Palsey”, I have spent many days at home alone. (This was the 90’s).

I am really tired of television, but with the radio, and the internet… I’ve come to appreciate music to the fullest. I’ve called it Music Therapy for my soul. Only to find out, you can major in it at college with a degree. “Why is this not public information?” Maybe is, but I never looked it up.

Music Therapy has meaning to many individuals. Some direct it solely to the handicapped. But truly, aren’t we all handicapped in some aspect? I like to think that if music moves you with therapeutic results, than it should be shared throughout life for every soul.

I’m not much of a writer; I have never been the best speller, failed English and tend to talk backwards (LOL). Thank goodness for spellcheck and patient people.

I’ve always was an artist, weather it be drawing, crafts, photography or music. I truly enjoy the visual beauty of life, either by sound or vision. And people in general just amaze me! Most of them I have come to enjoy, and some I prefer to just let them be.

I am who I am…. I just don’t know the details of it all yet. I’m looking into it though!
