It's like you found a piece of yourself again that you hadn't seen in a really long time, maybe a piece that you didn't know existed before.
I feel so blessed for it to have found me, and I've been so blessed to meet people like Dr.
Wellman and Lee and Hannah, who have supported me and said that I was meant to play this, and it was meant to find me.
Just to emphasize I am a beginner, okay?
So please be kind.
