Melinda,
Congratulations on all the wonderful (and difficult!) personal growth you are achieving right now! It takes such courage to change career paths and to face all those confusing feelings about one's destiny; brava to you for confronting yourself so honestly and for sharing it with the rest of us. You really are an inspiration, regardless of your chosen path.
It seems to me that you might have bombed the audition precisely because you were doing it to try to please your teacher, a motivation that you now realize is no longer useful for you. The feeling of let-down that you have about the audition is probably commingled with some leftover feelings about being a full-time singer.
Pat yourself on the back for having the courage to make your life work for *you* -- a lot of people never find that courage! You are my (s)hero for today.
Naomi Gurt Lind
