Moving. Both. You've shown us so much and given us even more to think about.

Ah! Thank you for this, Elizabeth. I once had someone say out loud to me in the interval of my concert, “You don’t look like a folk singer.” I was a little too glamorous for their taste — a little too sparkly. And at folk conferences I was a little too cheerful and too much like a kindergarten teacher. And when I feel sad, I look a bit too happy. Once again, in your beautiful way, you’ve touched something so complicated about being human — about having an inside and an outside.
