I just got done watching today’s episode of Oprah. She was at Ceasar’s Palace with Cher and Tina Turner. It was truly an inspirational show. Not only do both Cher and Tina look incredible for their age, they ARE incredible. Tina, a wise 68 years in age, just announced she is going back on the road to tour, and Cher is doing a 3 year gig at Ceasar’s!
When asked how she feels about getting older Tina said she embraces it. Over the years she has learned so much.
As I watched these two icons perform, I have been watching Cher since I was in 4th or 5th grade, I was truly inspired by their talent, their energy, and their spirit. It reminded me that your spirit can shine at ANY age!
I found myself thinking about the clients I work with. I am often helping them to re-connect with their own creative spirit and supporting them in their desire to give that spirit voice in this world. Many of them often think they have nothing left to give, that they are too old. They are not. I wish I had this episode of Oprah to show them, but I guess our work together and the power of music and music therapy will have to do.
What about you? When was the last time you let your creative spirit shine?
