Sparkle (1)
When we’re children, we sing all the time. We sing songs to learn, to express ourselves, to connect with others.
And, then somehow, as adults, we seem to stop our songs.
Sometimes we stop singing out of embarrassment that others may hear our imperfect key. Other times we stop singing because we decide the song can do without our voice. Many times we stop singing because we decide a tough time is no time for a song.
When we don’t sing, we unknowingly send a message that the world can do without song.
And, that’s just not true. We must sing. We’ve been given a voice (perfect in its imperfection), words and melodies. And, if we look around, we can see we’ve also been given a choir—family, friends, strangers looking to us to start the song.
To not sing, because of shame or self-doubt or judgment, means we choose silence. And, that’s just not acceptable.
Sing. When you sing, you give courage to others to raise their own voice in song. The louder we all sing, the better our world.
