So... Miracles come in strange packages.
In the middle of recording my album I had to go to St. Louis to do a Stand-up show and while I was there.. I... broke my ring finger on my left hand. Asin fretting hand... and not just broke.. like... Broke
It took 3 screws and a wire to put it back together and straighten it.
It's been a month and it is healing extraordinarilly well.
But since I don't believe in coincidence I have been haunted by the Why and why now...
I had a dream where I was sitting in a chair. with an attourney like person standing next to me and a row of floating heads ala Superman 2 in front of me in a big semi-circle.
And the being next to me asked "why did he have to break such an important finger on his hand now? Why, when he is needing to play guitar, does that finger break?"
and the voices said "He wants to be a great guitar player and not just a good one. So we had to break his finger to re-align it."
within 2 weeks of getting my stitches out I am playing guitar again and, while it will take a little while to get full motor skill, my fingers line up on the fret board in a way that is clearer and more precise than ever.
I'm so glad that I have a great Accupuncturist who pushes me...
If any of you have ever thought of using Accupuncture I highly recommend it.
My finger is healling so well and I am clear it will be even better than it was.
Stronger, better dexterity. Not because of something magical but because I have injured it. I will have to practice more than I ever have... I will have to warm up... and I will never take it for granted.
Sometimes the miracle is the worst turning into the best.

As for accupuncture, I have read enough to think there is actually something to it. Not sure what that something is, but like hypnosis, if it works, it works.
