Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

You Really Can Learn To Sing

By Cheryl P. Rivera


Most of us have probably heard a beautiful song on the radio or at a live performance and wished that we too could sing with such a pleasing voice. Perhaps you were inspired at the moment to take singing lessons to learn how to sing, but then shelved the thought because you felt you did not truly have the potential to sing well.But if you have a genuine desire to learn to sing, don't give up, and never think that you're a hopeless case! Contrary to what many people say, singing is not something you're born with-- it's something that must be developed, and something that anyone can learn.

Sure, some people are born with innately rich natural talent, but then again, not everyone aspires to be a professional Grammy-winning pop star! Normal, everyday people can learn to develop a pleasing and impressive singing voice with the proper training. Usually that's all most of us want--to not have to be afraid that we'll be asked to perform a karaoke song at a party, or to just be able to sing along with our favorite songs on the radio without straining.

Let me tell you a little story, a true story. Many years ago I was training to become a catholic priest (for personal reasons it didn't work out, but that's for another day) but during my time in the seminary a priest tutor told me I'd have to learn to sing. Now you'll have to take my word for it but my voice was like the mating call of a rusty file! To my surprise I did learn how to sing.

When you are part of any team, you have an opportunity to contribute to the group. One day, you may even have the opportunity to take part as a leader of some kind.Self-confidence.Many people are afraid of performing, or are nervous when people hear them sing. They do not know what they sound like and are uncertain of their ability. Once you have begun to work on your singing ability, you will gain confidence, develop a greater awareness of your ability, and know how to develop it.

Although utilizing a vocal coach is the best way to learn to sing, it's very expensive for most of us (usually around $50 to $200 an hour), and it's somewhat difficult to find a singing instructor who's truly good at teaching beginners how to sing.

Everyone wants to be able to sing, that's human nature. Being able to sing well enough to make a career out of it, takes some training even if you have raw natural talent. Yes, you can learn to become a great singer - you can train your voice just like you learn any instrument. You can become a singer of whatever level you desire with the right training, plenty of practice, and dedication to sticking to it.

There are literally dozens of products available on the market these days that can effectively get you started on your journey to becoming an excellent singer. Check the Internet and ask knowledgeable friends and colleagues to make some good recommendations for you.Singing is definitely something that makes life much richer. If you truly have a desire to learn to sing, don't ever give up your dream. Why not get started toward achieving it instead? You just may be surprised by how quickly and by how much you can improve your singing with the proper training.

Do you wonder, "Can I learn to Sing rock music?" Do you have dreams of spandex and adoring fans? Are you a classically trained singer who wants to explore their edgy side? Do you just need some vocal practice to go with your mean air guitar? What ever your issue is, yes, you can learn to sing rock music.It isn't an uncommon question. With the amount of garbage that is on the radio these days many people find themselves wondering if they can be a rock singer. In fact, it is such a popular question that there is an entire industry that is begging to answer that question for you.

Your ability to learn to sing will not happen overnight, just as you were not able to learn to walk overnight. Some people were born with the natural ability to sing gracefully and on pitch. Other people were not so lucky, but that does not mean that they cannot learn. It just means that they need to work a little harder and be a little more determined to succeed. But Singing is so much fun, it shouldn't matter.Personal vocal training is the best way to learn if you can afford it. Online multimedia lessons are getting much better now, however, so even if you aren't able to afford private lessons - there is still hope. They can give you the feeling of a one-on-one training session at a huge discount from what a private vocal coach would charge.

A very important tip is to keep your voice within your vocal range. The quality of the voice is better than the hitting the high notes. Billie Holiday is a good example of successful singer with only an octave range.Mimicking your favorite singers is not a bad thing but having your own style of singing definitely makes you a better singer. The reason why pop stars became famous is that they usually have developed a unique style of singing. Aside from a unique style, you should also learn to breathe the right way and add dynamics to your singing.
