I was looking back at an article Kenton Magazine did on me a few years ago. Some things I said resonated with me today and I wanted to share them with you.

I had said, “It seems whatever life brings; it always brings me back to music. That is what keeps my diligence, my internal sensing of calling… My writing is always evolving, coming from all sides. I don’t really have dry spells in writing. I go through things, let them breathe with me, then write. Continuous writing reminds me to constantly develop, share, and open others to “hope”. I don’t have all the words of wisdom, but my goal is to allow my influences to tell a story, have that story bring forward an emotion, and that emotion, to above all else, reside hope in my audiences.”

So, I think what I am present to is that life is a blank canvas that I am given every single day. It’s up to me to take in each experience I have and create a way for others to relate to those experineces through the lyrics and music I write, which in turn, becomes a song. My job is not to alter my experiences, but rather, to be influenced by them and then share the stories, hoping to bring awareness, hope, courage and wisdom to the drawing board for others to relate to.

Well, there ya have it. Thanks for joining me here today for a few minutes. I wish you a prosperous and abundant day ahead. We all have stories to tell. Open up your voice and share them with others. You never know what a difference your story can make to another in need of hearing it.
