@jeannettelouisek – I hear the pain both in the melody and your vocals. Really like your chord choices and transitions. Your song brings back memories of those with substance abuse challenges when I worked as an RN at a treatment facility. Isn’t it wonderful to be able to express your feelings in music?

[jeannettelouisek]

Thank you so much, Jack. I truly appreciate it. I do love writing. This site has really inspired me.

[TMutter]

very heartfelt – something all great songs have in common.

I have a feeling you have tapped into something that will be an ongoing gift to many.

[jeannettelouisek]

Well that’s one of the nicest things anybody has ever said to me. Thank you.
