Marie Jasinski, Website, Jan 21, 2008


I don't know if you ever saw it, but there was once two or three years back where Marie Jasinski wrote about letting go and committing herself wholeheartedly to being open and sharing online. She then proved it by posting an MP3 of her singing. It was probably the worst singing I had ever heard. But I'm sure she knew it was bad, and posted it anyways. People who do stuff like that are an inspiration to me. Not that I will ever post my own singing. But you know I know about just letting go and becoming the thing that you're doing, whatever it is. Marie has always symbolized that to me. I didn't tell her that her singing was bad, but I made sure to tell her the rest of it.

Thanks Marie. You will be missed.
