you're not sorry anymore.

so, recently, and by 'recently', i mean about half an hour ago, i recieved a twitter update from david archuleta, proceeded to the page on which the blog was written on, and read this.

'i think it made me appreciate what i've been doing even more, and made me realize the most important thing isn't blasting away at every high note perfectly. there's a lot more to music and performing than that, and i need to remember that there's a connection and feeling in music that doesn't come by hitting each note technically perfect. i guess i just needed to lose my voice to remember that, haha.'

this is so amazing.
this is the truest thing i have heard all day.
performing is not all about being perfect.
sure, it's an amazing feeling, knowing that you sang that song perfectly, or had a perfect show that night.
but, what's behind the words that you're singing is the most important things about performing.
i'm guilty of taking performing for granted, and i need to stop doing that.
being able to hve the courage to perform is a gift.
it's a gift that lots of people have, and do take for granted.

so, that's my little shtick for this evening.
carry on with whatever it was that you were doing before you read this. =)
