Ian,

I am sure that you can understand what I went through because I remember -not long time ago- you telling us of a health problem of yours, one that took several months and two interventions to be solved.
In my case the problem kept me away from the music for more than two years because I was literally unable to press the keys and one of the reasons I bought the Casio was that I needed a weighed keyboard to re-educate my fingers.
Aside from that, I went through a phase of total emptiness or lack of energy and, even if I sat at the keyboard, the music refused to flow from inside out and after a while I just stopped trying.
So, the very fact that I am now making the effort required to play a song over and over and then record it means that I am slowly coming back to my old life.
Since I don't sing it will be an instrumental song and since I suck as a composer it will be an arrangement of an existing song, but right now I can't tell more because it's meant to be a surprise...
and of course I will share it with you all, because it was the very idea of sharing that set this process in motion.
I hope that, like happens for avalanches, once you make the initial effort the rest will come more easily, almost by itself, and more songs will follow.
