Safety

I hope that everyone has someone in his or her life who is inspiring--not a hero they don't know or will never meet, but a person you know.

I watched my brother at a small bar almost a week ago. It's encouraging to watch him. Music isn't always the most lucrative career, and God knows he'll probably have a job besides that. But what if he didn't? Watching his face as he played with his friends makes me believe that, no matter what, he's going to be okay. Maybe that just shows how much I know about the world. But watching my brother play makes me want to write and practice my ukulele.

I got through my first entire song this week.
