Friday night, I did my first open mic night.

I finished up at work and spent an hour looking at potential upgrades for my mountain bike, and the made it over to the venue.
I had not quite practiced , but unlike my older self, I jumped into it anyways.
I met some very nice and friendly people, including a very well mannered and confidant high schooler.
I could not help and marvel at how poised this young woman was for her age.
My song was a bit of a disaster. I was a bit nervous, but mostly it was the lack of practice. I started singing a whole octave higher, and finished it that way. Screechy, and I forgot the lyrics.
I had a lot of fun, and I could tell that I would benefit from being in front of people. I sensed that I did not care as much as I used to about being super good with the performance, but really cared about the scene and the music of others.
Next time, though, I hope to sing better, and be more smooth with my ice breaker with the crowd. Nothing like practice.
And I want to close my eyes , grab the moment and sing my heart out!!

The meaning of the “second chance” I seek has been changed a lot. I started writing this in the hope of saving my marriage. But as time showed me , that was futile and misguided. Now I seek a second chance to be father to my six year old boy. He will no longer live with me starting aug2018. I hope to use this blog to allow him an insight into his father. I would want him to read this when he is older.
My original synopsis
A man in crisis. I am a 30 -something man. My 10 year marriage shattering in front of my eyes. I have decided that writing helps. I am hoping to heal from whats coming, but before that I have to deal with it. Experience the pain, I know I will feel, when my wife walks out the door.
I have a little boy who I don't want to lose. And I am scared. Of restarting my life from scratch. I am hoping to find kindred spirits on the blog, who are going through or have gone through what I am experiencing.
But I have hope, and I have faith. To some degree, I hope to reconcile my marriage.
