Anuhazi Tones • Codes for Courage
Coz sometimes we just gotta put on our big girl pants & face the things our human is afraid of.
Things are often not as bad as we imagine they might be. The human does love to amplify stuff in the mind.
Chances are that the thing that makes you wanna p**p your pants is your soul’s next move.
I remember being absolutely terrified of singing in front of folk. My mum loved my singing & would make me get up at parties & perform. Except I wasn’t performing, I was in fact exercising a major feat of courage because this was literally my worst nightmare.
My knees would physically knock. I’d get hot & cold flashes. I’d wish the ground would swallow me up.
Coz what if I made a mistake?? What if people judged me?
When I was 30 my brother desperately needed a last minute cover singer for one of his party bands. Somehow he managed to persuade me.
I found the courage because I wanted him to be ok more than I wanted to care about people hating on me.
I had words on stage & couldn’t remember all the melodies but…. I loved it.
I then went on to sing at parties as a job for the last 22 years!! I’m telling you there’s nothing like just letting rip as the music washes away your inhibitions & you forget yourself, becoming part of the whole. I keep saying I’m retiring & then I do another gig & freakin love that s**z.
What gives you courage?
