One of those gotta try once things
I sang in a church a solo (acapela no less) for Mothers' Day...Judy Collins' song...Bread and Roses.
They clapped and cheered which was amazing.(I was in the church choir and I had never seen them do that before) I was SO nervous...I told my family to stay home that day...I did not want them to see or hear me.
It had been a dream of mine to do this, and that song is exquisitely haunting...one of my all time favorites. The response was validating. The strange thing is though...even though it had been a dream of mine that had been realized...I didn't feel any different...I thought I would.
