The Music in My Mind
Friday, April 18, 2008
Dad thinks that there is a running musical soundtrack
that goes through my head day and night. He says that
because he's watched me shake and bob my head in
absolute silence as if there was a concert going on.
I've wanted to respond to him by asking him whether
he hears the music, too. I don't think he'd
understand.
