I think I just experienced an evening I’ll remember forever. It all started with an advertisement for an OpenMic Night event that caught my attention. Some part of me told myself, here’s an opportunity to do something you’ve never done. So, I did it this evening.
Everything tonight revolved around the concept that kept ringing through my head: “You can do it.” Well…I did it at OpenMic Night at Amack’s Well in downtown Batesville, between corn and soybeans in the rolling hills of southeastern Indiana, where I was a standup comedian for almost ten minutes. Yeah, the limit was 2-to-4, but I noticed none of the hosts were armed, so I let fly and told my story… in ten.
No apologies. No harm – no foul, right?
For me, it was like riding a wave. I doubt if anyone can understand the kind of energy I absorbed from smiling faces and people laughing out loud. What a blessing. My bucket list is one chit less…
Peace! G.
