Hi Bloggers! Do you have to share a story or a short reflection tagged with the letter “G”? For example I’ve written about an old GOSPEL (watch below) or about GREECE, about GRASSHOPPERs or GUITARISTs, GHANA or GERMANY, GYM or GRAFFITI, GREY or GREEN, GORILLA or GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE, GIRLS or GHOSTS etc. – I’m sure you’ll find an own story or a short reflection tagged with “G”! Feel free to add in the comments the link to your personal interpretation of the letter “G”!!!
Go Down Moses
My first song on my guitar! But now, 50 years later, I understand, that I wanted to leave the place where I was fenced in: “GO DOWN FRIZZY” – yes, I did, and now, 50 years later at least I’ve build my own world, 100 km away … QUESTION: Did you leave the town where you went to school – or are you still there?

I left the school and city where I grew up. It was suburban Sydney. I left as soon as I finished College and have rarely been back. Now I live 500km north of the city.
