AMAZINGLY INTERESTING

BY ANTHONY PICCOLINO

Many of us here at M2H love music, but no one loves it as much as me. Perhaps that is a big claim, but I believe it to be true. I love music so much that I want to devote my life to it and become a music critic some day.

I am the child of restaurant owners and I eat maybe six foods in the world. I am telling you this explain how raging is my OCD. So I put the damn thing to use and OCD on music. I’d bet anything that Carl Orff himself listened to Carmina Burana less often than me.

Anyway, my blog will be about how amazingly interesting I am.

OCD SUCKS

Yesterday I was a mess of OCD. It is ruining my life. I wanted to come to M2H, but the OCD said I had to stay home. I am especially angry about it because Thursday is songwriting, my absolute favorite. The guys wrote the funniest song ever, and I missed it.

Why OCD gets to decide my life, I don’t know. My real brain wants to do great things - my OCD says otherwise. I am just starting with my new psychiatrist, so I am not hysterical. I believe things will improve. But until then… this sucks.

That Day

I am still riding the high from Alex’s bar mitzvah. It was the best day of my life. The service was magical. Alex stood there on the stage without even needing Judy, which blew me away. When he started to type the Hebrew I wanted to cry, it was so amazing. I know others have written about the service, but I am compelled to as well. That peace and love that surrounded us was God. The feeling was indescribable. For the first time in my life, I believe God loves me. I could feel it there. I never did before, because he made me disabled. But as I sat in that synagogue watching Alex, I suddenly felt so loved that it changed me.

I am not sure why I am disabled, but I do believe now that there is a reason. That moment, on that day, changed everything for me. God does exist, and he does love nonspeakers too.
