In grab bag nature/nurture of life, I got a variety pack of characteristics that continue to un-vacuum seal as I age. Some of my more challenging characteristics include being too reactive, pent up anger, sometimes impulsive, and saying something intended to help at the exact wrong time.
But there is good news. I am generally hopeful with a positive tude and I often have a lack of fear in learning new shit. Thanks, Dad. Some may call this attribute less than bright. Truth be told, after the fact sometimes I think, what did I get myself into now…..
Today was my 2nd time music director leading and cantoring at a mass from the loft across the large sanctuary from the altar. This entailed playing the recorded organ at the exact liturgical time and singing along with specific tempo recorded. The liberal Protestant that is used to less formality and ritual in worship luckily didn’t devolve into flames. The 2nd rodeo was actually kinda fun; despite my annoyance at my short Sicilian legs that aren’t quite long enough to wrap under the bench but are annoyingly close to hitting the pedals.
Giddy up.
