The art of excuses…consider me a master.  I can talk myself out of just about anything usually due to fear and that annoying critic. But this week I really wanted to show progress so I turned down the volume on “but you don’t know how to use GarageBand”, and I set up my makeshift recording space and started playing around. I tried not to care about the end result and did my best to embrace the idea that “done is better than perfect" (and perfect doesn’t exist anyway, you know this!) but not gonna lie it was hard. Despite how scary and vulnerable it is to share ideas and thoughts that may not be up to my crazy standard, I know the practice of swatting all those excuses is important and will probably lead to some pretty awesome things. 

So…here is a recording of a piece I recently wrote.  I was getting hung up on not having another verse but then got to thinking that maybe this isn’t meant to be a song.  Maybe it is what it is. 

peace
