Two out of Three's Not Bad

In a previous post, I wrote about feeling unable to do certain things due to a lack of confidence. So as an update, here's how I went on: I went to the restaurant, and instead of having a meal, I just had a drink. Hopefully in future it will get easier and easier, so that eventually I'll be ordering a meal with the rest of my friends. I played my guitar at the World Mental Health Awareness Day. I played an improvisation with a new recruit (which can be seen on The Jam Factory blog, the video was made by Natalie, on her nifty mobile phone! and along with Pete Junior, I played "A Bird of Prayer," which is my own composition. I played these sitting on the steps of the stage, so hopefully the more I get back into playing live music, I'll eventually be able to stand on stage playing. Enrolling at college was the one I couldn't get myself to do, but I'm considering doing an online course, doing computer graphics instead. I managed to do these things, because of all the encouragement I received from friends at the Jam Factory and from the Media Action Group, (and Kate from the American.) Thanks for all the help I received, especially Natalie, who also made a lasting memory of the day for me by videoing me and taking photos.
