  my ex jw exhusband didn't care much about music.

  he preferred the natural sounds of life to music.

  i have a coworker who doesn't listen to music: she doesn't like it.

  Eric, that's very sad! I'd hate to lose the ability to play music. I played violin for 12 years and loved it. It was a kind of catharsis for me as a teen in the dubs. I could escape into Mozart and Vivaldi and my parents would just leave me alone because they knew how important it was to me. I haven't played in years but I can still remember all the finger placements and the exact timing and rhythym to all of my favorite songs.

  I would die without music! As dramatic as that sounds it's no exagerration. Whether it's a subtly beautiful symphony or a pounding punk song or a trippy dance track, I'm thrilled! I suppose music is my euphoria. I'm not sure what brain chemicals are behind it but, I get a rush when I hear a song I like. I start to dance whether in my car, in my home or at work. I'm a music addict!

  Bradley, don't apologize. I suffer from the same lack of stick-to-it-ivness as you. I have plenty of time to read Russian classics, watch hockey and stare out the window daydreaming but I have little patience for sitting through long meetings or lectures. I've always been this way. It goes all the way back to elementary school for me. It may have something to do with ADD. Since I've met you before I can say that you show some symptoms. Inability to focus for long periods of time and being easily distracted two of them. I have learned to motivate myself (the only thing that seems to have worked for me is working hard to modify my behavior without medication) because of the desired outcome. Once I visualize what I want to accomplish I can usually muddle through the necessary hurdles. If you can see the long term benefits you may have an easier time. I think you've really done a great job in the time I've known you in adjusting to "normal" life. Give yourself some time and acknowledgement of what you have accomplished!

  Your biggest cheerleader,

  I had absolutly no problem with it. My son had a horrible time. He kept trying to read the words instead of identify the colors. I think females definatly would have a much easier time.
