It seems like every day I’m finding my way.
What helps you find your way, every day?
Here are some visuals that helped me find my way, yesterday:
Three weekends from today, I’m finding my wayout of Boston to audition for the TV show “The Voice.”
I’ve found out — through “The Voice” website — that an optional part of that audition process is to submit a video of my audition song to the Voice staff ahead of time, for some pointers and — perhaps! — finding my way ahead of the audition crowd.
When I do find my way to the audition site in Philadelphia on February 21, I’ll be finding my way through my audition song (which will probably be “Soothe” by Todd Rundgren) without any accompanying instruments. Now I’m finding my way, here, to share this a capella rendition of “Soothe.”
It occurs to me that it’s taken me one thousand, one hundred, and twenty-five days to find my way to showing you what I look and sound like, while singing.
If you find a way to give me feedback about that video, I’ll be finding my way to reply back.
Why am I finding my way to audition for “The Voice,” when the odds are unlikely I’ll find myself on the show? Because this is all part of my way of finding my way out of fear.
Finding my way on WordPress always includes thanks to you, my readers, for helping me find my way here.
You are very brave, Ann. I wish you well.
I feel braver now, Derrick. Thank you.
The voice of an angel. Go for it.
You are now one of my guardian angels, Ray, and I’ll bring this comment with me to the audition.
You have a great voice!!! Best of luck to you..
Now I have luck and this comment to help me sing better!
Seems like you already won. Enjoy the trip.
I enjoyed this comment, Rob, very much.
“finding my way out of fear”…what a wonderful motivation, Ann.❤️ It seems you have already won with that one.
Such a lovely voice…wishing you only the best experience with all this. 🎼
Such a lovely voice you have, Van. I’ll bring it with me.
What a post. Love your cartoons 🙂
What a comment, Alex!
What a blog you have 🙂

Thanks, cat.
What a nice voice you have! I also love the cartoon you posted about the bed and cats. I had a cat and I can relate.
What a nice comment! I’m always glad when you find your way here, Maria.
You have a beautiful voice, Ann! And “Soothe” is a good song for you voice. I think we have a winner! Now we’ll just have to see if the Voice realizes that. 🙂
When you make your way here, Mel, you always make me feel like a winner.
A funny thing happened. Because my home wifi is very temperamental I could have given up but I’m glad I didn’t.
Your talent and bravery are admirable and so is your willingness to keep trying.
Here’s another funny thing that happens, Chris: it takes one to know one.
I really admire your courage and how you are stepping into this Ann. Thank you for sharing your vulnerable heart and voice. You are awesome ❤️
It takes one to know one, awesome Val! ❤
You sound great, unlike me I sound like someone is trying to strangle me
I think you sound great, Joanne.
Hey, Ann! I loved hearing –and seeing! — you sing! You have The Voice!
Hey, Maureen! I love hearing and seeing how you use your voice.
This is very brave, Ann. I think you have faced fear by entering this process. I did not know about this song and like it very much. Good luck. Wow. And that container of stones–that would soothe me.
I like your soothing comments very much. Many thanks.
I will start by saying I loved the map of the cat bed, the stones in a jar, and those tissue paper flowers. I think it admirable that you are facing your fear and getting out there and auditioning for The Voice- you have a beautiful voice- so clear and sweet. Will you be passing through NJ on the way to Philly or are you flying?
I’ll be taking the train to Philly from Boston, so I’ll be passing through many lovely things, rapidly. Thanks for this beautiful and supportive comment, Lisa.
I’ll wave as you pass on through and wish you luck!
impressive… i admire you’re courage…
Thank you, Sherryn!
