Stories of Gratitude
Paul Lamarche
Ontario, Canada
I was on a road-trip with one of my musical mentors, when he mentioned his oldest son being his best friend. It occurred me that my parents, as well, are my best friends – we are completely absorbed and connected by music even beyond family. And basically, all sports. They gifted and fostered my interest in music, and hockey when I was younger.
I am grateful for this connection for sure, but when I think of gratitude, I am further grateful for the fact that they are well taken care of and not in any state of financial or health stress. They achieved this for themselves. My parents are free to just enjoy their grandchildren and listen to my tales of musical travels.
And when I return from such gigs, we laugh and joke and tell old stories like friends do.
