Nothing is impossible. It can be downright difficult, but not impossible.

When you sing, you put on a persona. I hide behind that person on stage. You can feel like death, but you have to put it on. The audience wants to see someone smiley.

The one's who were mean to me are now nice to me.

I was always musical - yelling when I was a baby, singing into a brush and singing in the shower.

People who bullied me have matured now. Some are good friends.

My singing silenced the bullies, but better than that, it silenced the demons inside me. When you're jeered at, told to shut up, sit still, stop being silly, there's a cacophony of noise rolling around in your head. When I was singing, it was peaceful.

I was told I had brain damage. I always knew it was an unfair label. Now I have a clearer understanding of what's wrong and I feel relieved and a bit more relaxed about myself.
