interaction #1
Today I was walking through town and ran into a woman, probably in her 70s, that adored my dog. She intstantly began petting Saddie and asking me questions all about my companion. In just a few minutes of our meeting, she tells me that her name is Maddy and that she was a dog walker. But being far away from her home she gets lonely and misses connections to her past, so we plan to meet tomorrow at the park to play with Saddie and hopefully ease her homesickness.

Another day lost in my music. My imagination took control of over-rehersed and over-structured fingers which were often caught in grooves chiseled by to many repetitions of the same old licks. Finally I could let go. Lose control and let the music flow out in one gush of inspiration. So fluent that I was finally able to go back to the world I missed so much. I saw what I wanted to see and finaly felt happy. That same serene picture so clear. Suddenly I was awakened by the silly puppy and her young accompanist. They often pass by my aparment window on daily walks. They look happy. With the sunlight lighting her face and features. Was I missing out or gaining by staying inside all day trying to find that feeling and that world I love so much? I looked back to the keys decided to shut the window so that I could go back to my practice. I am so silly getting of task like that. I could lose it if I stop now.
After meeting Lee Kathryn yesterday in the park, I was so thrilled to finally have somebody to share my feelings with. We met up in the park today, with her dog Saddie, and talked for two hours! She is the sweetest little girl, and comforted my homesickness greatly. Although I did all of the talking today, I told her how much I wanted to hear about her life, so we decided to meet up in the park again soon. I can't wait!
