Lindy's Audio Cafe Linda Leverman

Emotions are a good thing, and it's ok to shed a tear or two. It can be tricky when you are in a public setting and the waterworks kick in.  A recent attendance at a local choir performance began a journey of reflection for Lindy, along with a quest for more tissue! Music brings harmony and trigger memories,  bringing an awareness of aging and changing times.  In this episode what started out as a quick late afternoon walk turned into a thought-provoking podcast recorded outside with nature. Lindy's most heartfelt podcasts come when sitting by the ocean, and in this episode she shares her experience in the choir concert and the impact it had on her life that day.
*Please be forgiving of the occasional "hiss" that was coming from the cell phone recording, in addition to the sound of the plane overhead. It was an "on the spot" recording, direct from the heart.
*Additional  notes:  My gratitude to my friend Thom for the invite. It's amazing how a small action can lead to big moments.
Congratulations as well to all the wonderful performers with Island Voices Chamber Choir, Quadra Singers and Comox Valley Children and Youth Choir.  Your concert in March 2023 was great!

Pink Shirt Day is a day set aside to bring awareness to bullying. National campaigns and media awareness focus on this topic. Inclusion plays an important role in prevention of bullying. In this episode Lindy shares a short paper written by a teenager who brings to light that we all have different skill sets in life.
