She keeps the dreams her friends forget.
The ones that seem to be too big or too distant, or built for someone else.

Our friends help do the climbing.

Blithe Spirit, Come Back
Tonight I went out with a group of friends (some new and some old)…. we were gabbing, drinking sangria, and making observations about each other.
One girl said if she were to describe me in one word she would choose “classic”.
classic (klasik) adj. : characterized by simplicity, balance, and purity of form; of lasting interest or significance
And then another friend said...
So many words get lost. They leave the mouth and lose their courage, wandering aimlessly until they are swept into the gutter like dead leaves. On rainy days, you can hear their chorus rushing past.

I’ve made a decision.
And here it is…
I’m planning an escape.
An elaborate escape.
Don’t worry… I’m not leaving New York City. (Do you really think I’d give up on my dream that quickly?? Never.) But that’s exactly it. I moved here to sing… and so that’s what I need to do.
This week I had a private coaching with a brilliantly talented...
