AMERICA'S GOT TALENT

I woke up hours ago very draggy. I did my best to get into the day. But my mind said,"Leave me alone." So I tried writing my blog. I know this blog too many is just another one of my silly ideas, but I would really like to follow through with this. So I sat at the computer, trying to get some words to make sense but I could not get them to come. I saved what I had writren but didn't try to edit it. I'll just have a throw away day, I thought. Then a little while ago I went on facebook. Larry had written he was trying out for "America's got talent." Way to go Larry.

I have known Larry since the day he was born. Larry is a dreamer. Thank God for dreamers. We humans are assorted bunch. Some very dependable, never straying off the beaten path. And thats good, we need those kind of people. We'd all be in trouble if there wasn't people like that around. There are many folks that try to stay on the beaten path, but the call somewhere out there entices them off and into realms unknown. These people are out there trying their dreams, chasing them in fact. That's why we have so many new inventions all the time. Why we have painters, writers, singers. Some people just get out there and show themselves to the world and if they fall on their faces, they get up and go on and usually try again.

many people sit on the porch when they are old and talk about what they could have done, or should have done. Now don't get me wrong, thats perfectly alright to live your life that way. I am not a singer but I am a dreamer. I was always wandering off to new places, chasing something I never knew quite what. We dreamers usually are not the most dependable. Being a dreamer can sometimes be hard on familes, I know.

Larry is a good singer, he takes that from his Dad. There will be many singers trying out for the show. Will Larry be able to catch the judges eyes and get through. I certainly hope so. That would be way cool, as the kids say. But the most important thing is, he is not afraid to try. Walk out there alone and show himself to the world. Way to go Larry. I am proud of you.
