Oh The Question

I've never really been asked why it is why I love performing, so I never had to come up with a universally relatable answer. Until recently. And then the words just wouldn't come. They refused to string together, the millions of reasons and thoughts refused to gather from the various points of my mind. All that came out was an unforgivable "I just can't seem to explain. Its just so big".

So, thank you Mr. Springsteen for giving me this. It is invaluable. It is perfect.

"I can’t begin to describe the amount of enjoyment and bliss and fun…you get a sense of your own abilities and power and then you also get a sense of the collectiveness of being with somebody…and there’s something in that being that is its own validation. when it comes down to it it’s the way it make you feel. I do it because of the way it makes me feel and the way that I can make you feel when I do it, and I like you making feel a certain way when I do it. It thrills me. It excites me. It gives me meaning."--B. Springsteen
