I could relate to this. I love Amazing Grace. I joined our temple "no-cut" choir to learn to sing. Years later I am no Barbra Streisand, but I can sing Happy
Birthday on tune, which I couldn't before. And let's face it, singing Happy Birthday is funl I see singing being related to "having a voice." I love hearing your stories of conquering fears. I remember the stand-up one.
"As I gained faith in myself, my tone deepened and my voice grew stronger." Thank you for your strong voice.
