THE DREAM GOES ON :)

Had my first band practice with my new bassist Kevin and my new guitarist Kevin... yes these are two different people.. My band should take that name up as its own..ha ha.. So, now I will take the time out to say... I totally love my band... which consists of Marjorie and Alice my back up.. and the Kevin's. They all have great musical ability and there is never a dull moment during practice... OK for that one practice at least.

Today I am focusing on the dream that was, the dream that is and the reality that will be. Music is one of the weirdest industries to break into. It can either be easy for you or hard. For me it is definitely hard... sometimes I find myself questioning my ability and sometimes people just bluntly try to put you down.. I was talking to my friend about a week ago and he was asking about my music and I told him all the bad comments (non that were meant to be constructive) that I had ever gotten from people, even those parading as my friends. He was totally shocked. Anyway that's just how the world is right.. At every place you go there is someone working hard day and night to see you fail.

Dreams are always there, following the dreams is what determines whether they come true or not. It is all up to you, the dreamer. Every other day I wake up feeling that someones gonna make it today but it isn't me, someones gonna sign a recording deal today and it wont be me, someones going to the studio to meet a top class producer and it wont be me, someones going to be recognized for the musical talent and it wont be me.. all these negativity dies today. From now on its gonna be me.. and when it does happen I won't be so surprised. Too often my dreams take the back seat and my music waits for others before it thinks of itself.

There is too much talent here to be quiet, there is too much passion here to be kept silent, there is too much creativity here to be kept hidden from the world. If this is what following my dream means, I will follow it to the ends of the earth and back.. round and round until my dream is mine. I will never rest and I will never be silent with it. Even if it means putting up a YouTube video every other day.. I will.. I will and I won't stop until someone takes notice and that person tells 500 other people and at least one of my videos gets at least a million views. Is it possible?? Definitely YES!! I have no doubt in my mind.. Even if I know that right now only two people read this blog.. me included..

Whatever dreams we have should not be dependent on the people that bring us down rather it should depend on what we are willing to do to get it. Note: I do not mean extremes like murder or stealing.. healthy and moral methods people... do not sleep with someone to get where you need to be. God can take you to places you never dreamed at any second just keep believing. One day the rain will end and the sun will shine so bright it will burn straight through all the despair and all the pain that brought you to where you are.

I would like to end this post by saying, "From all pain and all the tears and all imaginable things that could go wrong comes beauty and that's the truth"
