I'm thankful. Little did I know 2 years ago a talent I had for years and enjoyed would come to a small demise. I used to sing. Solos. Groups. Play guitar, piano. For years. I worked with people. I would listen intently to their life issues and offer hope through the Lord's directing. I would stand publicly and teach. My voice and ears were never a thought or problem. They were my work tools. Then, I started to have strange hearing issues. If any one wants, I will explain, but pretty sure no one reads this anyway so safe place to vent, right? I've gone to ENTs and audiologists and basically spent alot of time and money. Found some helpful stuff on my own, still praying. Long story short- I decided I was not going to give up and miss out on life. Enter- balloon art, (which I had already been doing for several years). But today I realized what a gift it was, to prepare me for a time when my life changed. I do not have to sing or hear people too much, and yet, can create art and share with others. Bring a smile to children. (above arch went to Vacation Bible School.) And amazement of decor at corporate events. Even though I cannot enjoy music at this time as I once did (crazy distortion) God saw to it I learned a different art form before that loss of hearing happened. I can still hear, but not the same. Hearing aids may not help, I will try them at some point. It's complicated. Hey, thanks for listening if anyone did. This is part of my story. Life. Twist on!
