Thread Name: Why We Sing, Part III
Subject: RE: Why We Sing, Part III
Joy indeed. Sometimes where least expected.

I thought I'd be attending the huge Womens March in Dayton, Ohio on Saturday, but could not find timely handicap info or help. Just when hope failed-- I'd packed all my gear-- a Sister March rally in a smaller town needed.... a songleader. And I am that!

In one days joyous work, I pulled together about 20 pieces for the organizers' review, made a YouTube playlist for younguns who might not know the older protest songs, had custom-adapted lyrics all set in my fone's memo app-- and went from useless to happily tired. Many new friends and hain't met yet.

Why I sing is often 'When there's need,' but I think it's not wrong to be so pleased I can still pull it off. In this situation, all the Why's happily combine!
