Nicely done Sir! I am proud of you… as I - only recently posted my first mandolin video in the Cabin Fever contest @BanjoBen graciously provided for us. I have previously posted 1 banjo video quite a long time ago.
Many people posted to win - me included - but something BIGGER started to happen…
Everyone was sooooo supportive of everyone else’s post!
Think about it… It was a drawing, right? So, logically, the more entries reduces each person’s chance to win. However, I saw everyone rallying around others and encouraging them. It felt like a battle cry against this pandemic and quarantine.
I always encourage others with liking many performance posts. I fact, I partially had done so because I, myself… was too shy to post! So, I supported them to have the courage to do what I would not.
Then, it dawned on me… we are all in this Cabin Fever quarantine together. I felt like it was time to let go of false pride, possible embarrassment and shame… to listen to my own advice to encourage so many others and DO what I have asked other to do!
That is when I fought to resist that voice that said, “You cannot learn the song in time” and “You aren’t as good as the others”.
CONGRATULATIONS… you have jumped into the pool with all the rest of us and we welcome you to the party! - TWICE!
I will end this by saying, I was impressed with your speed! Good job! Now, Don’t be a stranger, ya hear?
