Over the past couple of weeks, I have felt lousy and even came down with the dreded virus last week. Working on regaining my voice back although I am feeling much better on the whole.
Frustration can get the best of me, but the other day (Tuesday), I was driving to work and finally was able to sing along with the radio singing Rich Mullin's
"Step by Step". The lyrics, for those who aren't familiar with the song goes as:
Oh God, You are my God
And I will ever praise You
Oh God, You are my God
And I will ever praise You
I will seek You in the morning
And I will learn to walk in Your ways
And step by step You'll lead me
And I will follow You all of my days
Oh God, You are my God
And I will ever praise You
Oh God, You are my God
And I will ever praise You
I will seek You in the morning
And I will learn to walk in Your ways
And step by step You'll lead me
And I will follow You all of my days
And step by step You'll lead me
And I will follow You all of my days
Of course, it was only as good as a quality for my ears only as I didn't say that I was on pitch; just had enough capacity in my lungs to sing that much at least.
Last night, I was able to sing along with Belinda Doolittle when she sang "WOMAN" on the American Idol. It was a bit more on pitch and with a bit more lung capacity. Not quite there yet, though!!
Thank goodness for my small joys, though. I am so grateful for those small joys; none of which can be taken from me although I am probably the only one that appreciates such small joys at this time. :)
As frustrated as I am that I can't have my voice 100% back yet, I dance a small jig this morning with the pleasures of the small joys that I am able to enjoy so far. Hoping that you are enjoying whatever small joys that you might be having today as well!!!
