DAD!

okay, so I wrote to my dad about the serious artists that I was introduced to today, and here's what he wrote back......

            Michele,

Serious competition will bring out the best in you.

I remember when you didn’t think you were good enough to play basketball.  I said who is better?

You looked around and realized that you had skills that were lacking in others – confidence, motivation, courage, etc.

Your artistic skill set is probably as good or better than others in the program.  But do they have: confidence, motivation, courage?

Motivation you certainly have.  Who has more courage?  There you are up in Maine with everything on the line.  You’ve got Balls!!!

Made you laugh.

Dad

DAD! I LOVE YOU!!
