#redeeming yourself

[andrew-heard]

Angel and the Process of Atonement

The moral case for trying to make up for what you did wrong.

We all have something we want to make up for, but the question is how?

Naches made finals at Cavalcade of bands for the first time in it's history. As much as this marching season has been a nasty headache. (for many reasons I'd rather not rant about) It felt good. Knowing last year that instead of being in retreat we were on a bus going home, just kind of makes you realize things. No matter how much you want some people in your band to just go away and never come back, no matter how much your shoulder hurts, you always have something to try for. My prelims performance was awful because of my nasty cold, and i'm glad I had the opportunity to redeem myself in finals. Without that opportunity, I don't know what I would of done.  Only way to go from here is up. Hurrah.

There is absolutely no way you can redeem yourself from this. Good going. Because you were "not thinking clearly" you damaged and made a huge mess.

Give everyone a little time, there isn't anything you can say now and no one wants to talk about it anyways. Unfortunately you're all just going to have to stay away from each other for a while.
