♫♫I have always believed that music was a gift of life. My son would swear that I had music notes instead of blood cells in my blood. I use music to deal with pain, to lift my spirits, to inspire me to move a little more than I think I can each day. ♫♫♫

Dr. Sherry E. Showalter - "Keepin It Real" 
If I can see past the tears–to tell ya this was wonderful. Thanks for posting.
“can’t stop the music” the powerful music that lives within all … here’s a kleenex babygirl. hugs on the suns rays to YOU
Waaaaay back in college I chose Music Therapy as my chosen topic for a paper to write. The professor TOLD me not enough information in ‘that’ field. So, I PLEASED him with a topic he ‘might’ know, Parkinson’s Disease. He said “Yes, that is well researched, do your paper on that.” So I wrote what HE wanted, all because he was not educated in Music Therapy like Dr. Oliver Sacks or E. Thayer Gaston and many more with proven stats.
Oh me, oh my, what ‘our’ teachers (at times) tend to think instead of allowing the student to soar with spirit and knowledge.
Thank you Dr. Sherry for posting the excellent video. I kept smiling throughout the entire presentation with joy.
THank you for all that YOU are… many blessings to you and yours as you tried to educate the educator who lived in the box… poor man! hopefully he has grown to see color in sound by now!
