			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Young at Heart Chorus, from North Hampton, MA.  When you&#8217;re a young songwriter there are certain dreams you have; performing live on the Grammies, Wembly, meeting your idols, etc. </p>
<p>When you get beyond 30 &#8211; hopefully &#8211; you get beyond those to bigger dreams; moving people with your music, saving a life with your words, imparting some bit of life&#8217;s lessons, or even just bringing a smile.</p>
<p>In the business of art we get wound up tightly in the perils of thinking that youth is a metal stronger than wisdom.  Maybe what we truly should remember is that feeling is a scion more precious than ambition.  </p>
<p>Nothing illustrates this better than the Young at Heart Chorus.  Watch this video and see what I mean.  Watch it all the way through; if you still have dry eyes maybe you should re-evaluate your approach to your craft, if not your life.</p>
