It’s late. I take a deep breath. In this quiet moment I let the tears flow. I prefer to cry alone. I’m authentic in this moment. The fear is real. The moment is surreal. I feel gratitude for the moments I have left. “One breath at a time” I say when it’s just us. A reminder to us both. I play music, … Continue reading The Quiet

I found myself sharing with someone that certain people in my immediate world bring out the “crazy” in me. As I shared that with this person, it resonated within me as a truth. However, as I reflect on that conversation I realize I do not want it to be my truth. I do not want to hold or harbor “crazy” in me. Then no one can bring it out … Continue reading Crazy
During the last shut down in California, the Pandemic became real for me. What I mean by this is I had seen it in the news, but had not know anyone personally who was touched by it.

I love music. I love what it makes me feel. I love how I feel. I think it is a way for me to get lost, without having somewhere to go. I give control to the song, to the lyrics. I am at the mercy of the artist. I am at the mercy of their story. It is easier to live someone else’s life than my own. I have to be responsible for … Continue reading Random Fear
I have always said I am an addict, or more accurately I have an addictive personality. What does that really mean? Why do I insist on believing this untruth? I am nothing I do not want to be. Why do I live in the things I do not want to live in? I am the master of my world. I am the master of my universe. I am, I am, I am… … Continue reading Open, Empty, GO!
Sometimes my mind just runs away and leaves me in the dust. I cannot always put my thoughts on paper. I have a hard time knowing when to stop, when I do not know I have started. Music allows me to feel. Music allows me to speak. I cannot carry a tune to save my life, but that does not stop me from bellowing out at the top of my … Continue reading Runaway Mind
