Look at Your Loved Ones by Kelly Roper
When family are gathered ’roundThere’s so much love in the air.If you ever wonder who has your back,Just look at your loved ones there.

We are Family by Kelly Roper
We are family,Not just because we share blood,But because we share a bondBuilt from abiding love.
“How careful we’d be if we kent which goodbyes were our last”-Jocasta Cameron

Take some time today to hug those you love because you never know when it will be goodbye for now or goodbye forever.
Piano practice
I’ve also decided to start doing 10 minute practices every day for piano practice. I’m not nearly advanced at piano playing as drum playing so I can’t play for hours on piano like I can on drumset and I do have a pretty full schedule each week but there’s no reason I can’t at least try to get 10 minutes of practice in each day. I think it works for a busy person like me who has a lot of goals and interests. Plus if I only do 10 minutes a day, I can vary what I play each day so I don’t get bored. My background in piano playing is classical, but I really want to learn rock piano and the songs that I love which are mainly rock or metal songs. So I’m trying to vary what I do each day. One day I can do scales, another day a classical song, and another day a rock/metal song. I want to get better at piano so I can write music to the lyrics I’ve written. So far this seems to be working for me. Playing 10 minutes a day is better than trying to play for an hour and not being able to play at all or maybe even for weeks at a time! No excuses, I can do this.
