Music

Many people ask if I get lonely here without my friends and family. Yes I do. I miss you.

But Skype and e-mails and comments on my blog help.

Keith gave me some small speakers that I hook up to my IPod. I listen while I’m in my room working or blogging like right now. The music reminds me of home and keeps me company. Certain songs remind me of certain people and experiences, some sad some happy. You know what it’s like.

Music is powerful and soothing and therapeutic.

"Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness."
