For as long as I can remember back now,....its never felt like that.

All the missed notes in the world didn't matter, bad counting, no formality of style. None of it, I simply no longer cared. What came from my fingertips was music, free, unfettered by discipline adn training, unfettered by fears of what others would say upon hearing, no judgements. Just freedom.

I played for nearly an hour, a volume hugely longer than I've played in years. I just let it trickle from my fingers. And for a moment...I was free.
