#048 - 4♣️ - Improvising to the music in your head, street performing, voting, and getting up for the downstroke.

Have Tap Shoes Will Travel

Rick gets up for the downstroke, talks about street performing on the 3rd Street Promenade in Santa Monica in 2001, encourages you to VOTE, and explains the phenomenon of how he tap jams along with the music that is playing inside of his head. I am so thankful, grateful, and touched by your well-wishes, prayers, and generosity. It is a huge reason why I am healing so well. Thank you!
