Want to practice in the hallway?

“No they know music! Let’s practice outside in 50 degree temperature so we can be flat and have the entire student body as our audience.” -J (Har dee har, no offense J-)

As I was clapping a steady tempo of 180 beats per minute, for lack of a metronome, a disabled girl walked past clapping her hands wildly and shouting, “Yay!” She made two rounds around our area and both times yielded the same result: Happiness. (Ex. Similar to going to Disneyland for the first time or being given a gargantuan hug or engulfing a warm chocolate chip cookie)

I know that she thought I was clapping for J- the same way she was.

And I am certain beyond all doubt that this is the type of happiness that I wish to be plastered across the faces of all that I encounter. It is irrational, illogical, yet all together makes perfect sense.

Perhaps I may not be explaining myself efficiently, but as for now… That can wait.
