<human>: Title basically says it all. Used to love songs and music in general, sang in public without a care in the world about all the people who ridiculed me and teased. Recently, I was able to hear myself singing and realized how true my critics' words were. 

Really, nobody appreciates my singing. My closest friends and even not close friends have stated how much they dread my bursts into sing song. At one point, I didn't care about others' complaints. I sang for my own pleasure not theirs. If they really seriously didnt want me to sing I would stop. But now, I've quit altogether. I still don't care much for their opinions, but I've begun to feel like I'm wasting time and breath even if it does make me feel a little happier. I'm debating: spend my time singing or focusing on what others want? What are your opinions?

Can you provide a brief overview of the text?
<bot>: Used to love singing (still would enjoy it) but quit due to a little bit of criticism but mostly out of self concern over if I am wasting time. What should I do?
