clrmehppygrl's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I Sang My husband is a miracle worker. How he does it, I have no idea. I'm not sure if I do want to know, either. But he does it so simplistically. Last night, we went on our date. First to the brand spankin' new Olive Garden they just built by the mall. Had a sweet waitress who bumbled over our order and forgot stuff, but she really was nice, not to mention inexperienced. Then we went to see "Underworld". Good movie if you're in to the vampire and/or warewolf thing. Underrated. Very very good. Not too much gore either, which was nice. Then we got ice cream at Friendly's. Okay, I bet you're wondering where this miracle is that I speak of. Well, he had burned an Evanescence CD for me, since we can't find our legitimately purchased one anywhere. And the song "My Immortal" came on, and I started singing. I have always wanted to sing. Last night he pushed me to do it well. He taught me to relax my throat, he pushed on my tummy to help me breathe correctly. And the most helpful, beautiful thing he did for me? He listened. And I sang. I sang for over an hour. I sang the same two songs (My Immortal and Hello) over and over and over again. I hit notes I've never thought about hitting before. Those notes between high and low that always seemed to find their way into my nasal cavity. I hit them. Me. My husband cried when I sang. He was proud of me. He was happy for me. I moved him that much. We drove around for about an hour. Just driving and singing, crying and laughing. I sang. What leaves me wondering now is if I can do it again. If my vocal cords have a memory. Last night, I felt as if my body were bursting with light. I felt as if I my heart had grown wings and had flown above my body. Yes, singing does all of this to me. It is a release and a joy, and I sounded good for the first time. My husband is a miracle worker. He allows me to dream, and has allowed me to try. I feel new inside. 10:44 am - 2003-10-26 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
