I love singing and dancing. It makes me feel so much better. I do it at home only. I'm aware of my surroundings when I do it and I enjoy it much
Me too.
I sing at work. It really puts me in focus and in a great mood
I believe this so much, so long as you sing songs that make you happy
In my late teens, I was very confident with my singing until confidence lacked because my voice wasn't as point as it was before and some of my former peers were made a negative comments which I heard. Now I am still working on my singing skills to lift its standards.
You don't have to listen to other peoples opinions. As long as you are enjoying it for yourself that's all that matters. When I sing I do it for my own mental health.
He is very similar to me it mentally makes me
Feel better
😊 Brilliant Jude!! X arr we miss you x
