The Crowd Part 2

from pinterest

I could hear the same crowd cheering in the distance. I tried to walk backwards, but nothing happened. I was unable to go forward; I don’t know why. I few songs played, I sang along to all of them on key. I could hear the 100,000 singing along too; it was magical. I wonder if this means something important is coming up for me. 

There’s a film called “Igor” (2008), which tells about a hunchback who becomes the hero his people needed. After three songs, I was able to walk forward at a ridiculous slow pace. I can feel a bright light shining on me, but I couldn’t see anything. I woke up before knowing what happened next. I first sang in front of people around 5 years old. I froze up then, but in elementary and high school, I handled solos much better. 

Those memories played in my head; it is bittersweet. You love how innocent and young you are, but you know so much more. I guess that is life and how we learn with time.
