Sing

Human instinct is to cry out to be heard. It started at birth. If we suspect we are not heard (and get what we want) we cry even more. Some cry because they are never satisfied perhaps like the dinosaur where the fiercest ones scream out. But most birds sing as if they couldn't care less about an audience.

Humans learn to scream silently which is psychologically unhealthy. But few learn to sing in life. I believe my voice hasn't completely opened up because I've suppressed it too long.

During my difficult time, I did scream out of the darkness. I've recently moved on to singing and moving with my favorite music. I know I'm heard so I'm free to sing like birds.

I'll soon sing with the freedom and sass of the woman urging us to "Be Grateful". Jennifer Hudson does a great new version too.
