Reading a friends posts about discouragement and damage as we grow up reminds me of something I don't know if I shared but want to

What a great story and lesson.

Good advice that. And he's right too.

And I can so hear John saying that too

I wonder if being stinted on praise is one of the reasons you are so very much supportive of filkers trying to spread their wings and join in.

I might not be a top of the line singer, either, but it still brings me joy! Thank you for helping to encourage me to sing and play, as well as sign, in filk.

You are deserving of much encouragement.

btw did I mention I'll be at Consonance making little faces at you and signing badly?

[judifilksign]

Mmm. Maybe I could get you to come up on stage with me for a couple of songs if they give me a toastmistress concert slot?

Hmmm...

She coulda, shoulda, woulda, but you're the one with a very fine album out.

Thanks dear. One of the things my dad really regretted was that there were no recordings of his mom. If my aunt is still alive when I talk to her next (she is in some obscure village in Scotland now) I want to find out what she remembers of her....
