It was a bit sad and hard to think about, but I also think that was the point.<br /><br />I have to say I think you are very brave in leaving music. My son is in the high school band and is going to college for music next fall, and if you are anything like him, music is all you have ever done. He started in grade school and has continued with it all the way up. It becomes your life, and it takes a lot of courage to leave something like that behind, even if leaving is what is best. I have to admit that I do worry about him sometimes and wonder how he will be able to make a career out of his music, but he is going to do what he fells is right.<br /><br />Sometimes we need to let go of the 'dream' for what is real, and if we are lucky, we will get the dream anyway. Like they say; if it was meant to be, it will be.<br /><br />Good luck to you, I am sure you have a wonderful career ahead of you!Judith Praghthttp://eltscom.fieldsearch.net/jpraghtnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478454919202791099.post-57364526892583370642011-06-20T12:59:19.245-07:002011-06-20T12:59:19.245-07:00YES!

Quitting is what intelligent people do when they know it's time to move on.Bethany Crandellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08465408035247412662noreply@blogger.com
