I have little to no musical ability (although I sing a great note in the shower 😁) but coming here and listening to amazing music is so inspirational. My joy zone is when I move. Each morning I do a 5km walk. No headphones or phone just me, my dogs and the outdoors. It really brings me joy and starts the day off just right. Most days I also go to the gym. It serves as a form of meditation and it has helped me cope with my depression. I haven't taken any antidepressants in almost 30 years and that's down to finding my joy in training. Thank you for making this community @Rositsa Aleksandrova , it is absolutely incredible ❤️ Photo is from this morning, right before my morning swim

Last night I went through so much!! It all happened after reading a comment of @Chanie Twersky in this post. I cried ALOT realizing ALOT!! I realized that all my life I was ignoring the wants and needs of my soul and putting others first even if they don’t deserve it… If I could help - I always did. It felt like my duty. It felt like if I didn’t help when I can, I’d be a bad person. But some people do not deserve our energy, time and efforts. Reciprocity is a key factor. And, I am not saying to do things for others with an expectation of receiving something in return!! I am saying, that if there is a proven track record of this person consistently treating you like a doormat, set healthy boundaries!!! Protect yourself!!! Takers… just take! It’s up to US to lay those boundaries. And something to be said about… sometimes we just outgrow friendships. And we got to let go to let in… Do you regularly audit your “friends”?

I am listening to this on repeat for the past 20 mins and planning to do so while going through notifications. Our beloved triber @Lévis Côté Tremblay shared it with me ✨✨✨ Mood: Perf vibe for this perfect moment! Grateful for you!

Hi Tribers, help me come up w a better name for our “challenges” category. Please! The word “challenge” triggers me and I don’t like it. 😂 Just like “that black dog” - when naming him I didn’t like how Blessing sounds in English (so we called him Makarios - blessing in Greek). But it’s worse cuz “challenge” is not just I don’t like it but it actually triggers me for some unexplained reason 🤷‍♀️ I know that in the online world a “challenge” is something that is supposed to drive you forward, achieving new highs. But, maybe because English is not my first language, I don’t like that word as it reminds me of something challenging (not in a good way), struggle-like…. 🤔 Maybe it’s just me??? Is it?? Let me know!! Please… pretties 🥰 I have a few alternatives for this category and do want to brainstorm it with YOU!!! Some of you are brilliant masters with words - like @Nadzee A, @VALA aka Valgerður Eva Þorvaldsdóttir, @Katrina Wright, @Nicole Jordan, @Lisa Black & @Nathaniel Parant for example… Let’s all rename and crown w a new cool feeling this category!!! Together!!!!

Again, I'm not fully trained in the instrument because I'm self-taught, applying singing knowledge to the instrument. But I have a decent understanding of chords to play by ear and create my own versions of renditions, as well as create original personal pieces. I hope you "have a good time"with this one. Old clip, but still relevant apparently. I used an octave honky-tonk timbre for this one.
