Go play taiko.

It's two days after the election and almost everyone posting on my Facebook page is in various stages of grief.  I'm not going to make this a political post, but I do want to make it relevant.

Go play taiko.

• Play for those who don't have a voice.
• Play to bring joy to those who need it.
• Play to represent your heritage.
• Play to connect to what - and who - matters to you.
• Play for those who can't.
• Play and *be* in the moment, in the sweat, in the rhythm, in the beat.

I've said it before, taiko don't care who you are, where you came from, why you play.  They just want you to make a good sound.  So let's go do that.  Make some good sounds!
