I was really, really amazed and loved during my trip to Kentucky. I know my daughter has my musical ability, she's been in chorus these last 2 years, but she showed me something which touched me in many ways.
She's begun collecting music when in certain moods, and she's was identifying soundtrack music as "cinematic", which is quite accurate. A movie/show/theatre production can rise or fall based on the music chosen to represent it. I mention this since she's identifying her own feelings within music herself. I've done that myself when without other tools or resources. It's actually why and how I excelled in music when I was her age. Music was my only outlet.
We were heading out for dinner 2 nights ago, she was playing some of her collected songs over the car's stereo, and she said she had a song which might touch me. So, I listened. And began crying. It's a song about a brother missing his own brother, sharing childhood memories, and how he missed him. My daughter hadn't even realized it touched me, and I pointed to the tear running down my cheek, as it came to me faster then expected. The song was emotionally accurate for me. I asked her to send me a few songs while we listened.
