I have been very conflicted lately about playing music in churches as a profession. In the South, if you don’t use your musical talent for God then you are sinning. On the other hand, I don’t see...

What Did I Win?

Last night I had the most vivid dream. I was at a conference type meeting. My wife and youngest was in the room of the hotel where the conference was held. I was in a meeting with a apparently a ...

I'm Right Here

Spent the afternoon at a family function celebrating one of my sister’s kid’s birthday. We had to pick an odd time due to scheduling but we all made it except our grandmother - she was waiting fo...

Closed and Enjoying

I’ve always heard if you hold it in it’ll find its way out eventually. Today, I had to draw a boundary in my home office - this, is the space where I work. Also, if you are working with me and I ...

A Weekend Off

Had the weekend off - which doesn’t happen much for me. Probably shouldn’t have had the weekend off at all. The more idle time I have the dumber I tend to be. I come up with ideas that no one wan...


This time of year all the local schools are busy handing out awards. The pictures posted on social media are amazing to see. I love seeing the accomplishments of the kids. Seeing how they worked ...

Direction

I am watching a series. During this series there is a person that is going thru therapy. The patient is adamant that they have moved past an episode they went thru. The therapist says something t...


I haven’t been on this platform much lately. I have been diving into my dreams and the interpretations. I have had a lot of dreams and been able to really hone into their meanings - whenever ther...

Something New

I got the opportunity this week to play drums with one of the best band’s I have ever had the opportunity to sit in with. But - I’m not a drummer. Lol I started out playing drums when I was 11 y...

Who Am I

I am searching for myself. What and who I am made of is certainly being challenged. This page is dedicated to dreams - so I’ll share a few I’ve had recently (no particular order). Music produce...

Reality sinks low

The lie of the millennium is that you can do whatever you set your mind to do. I believe, to an extent, there’s just enough truth to make it believable; ultimately, it’s the one percent untruth t...


…they are mine. I think I write about the blahs because I have no problem sharing the happy times. Yesterday, I was an emotional wreck and every time I tried to suppress the negativity it would ...

I Live Alone

I sit and stare watching my world crumble A blank sheet waiting for the notes Once they’re written I’m hid between them The silence I keep misunderstood as humble I’m looking right at you and m...

Conflicting Conflict

One thing I have never been able to master of my own emotions is feeling of being the last to know. I’m not sure what it is that upsets me about that so much. I remember once at an office I used ...


Saw a Facebook post that triggered a memory. Ever have one of those that used to upset you or make you angry, but now just seems like a bad movie scene - no emotions at all? Here’s one.. The post...

Timing

It all bust seems that timing isn’t my strong suit. When I was a teenager I was told, a lot, I was ahead of my time. Some things I wanted to accomplish I was told I would need to wait. Then, afte...

The Question We Keep Avoiding

It’s funny - I’ve been thinking about this for about a week. The question has been dancing around in my head and I believe it’s perspective. Let’s answer the baited question that satan gives to n...

I'm Waking Up

I have been on this philosophical journey to figure out where I took a wrong turn that upended my childhood dreams. I’ve blamed this person or that one and I’ve blamed myself. It’s ultimately li...

What I See

It is said that one decision can effect up to 17 people who are aquatinted with you, even if they aren’t close. I’ve tried to keep this in mind when I do things or make decisions. A lot of things...


I know for a good 15 years my mom will occasionally send me a text and ask my advice about something. That was about the time she decided to leave my stepdad (the narcissist) and be the strong in...

It's been a minute

I am helping to teach homeschool. I am running a business. I am working on my music. I am volunteering as a youth sports coach 3 days a week. I’ve been told I have too many irons in the fire. Ma...

I Wasn't Ready

In a week and a half will mark the anniversary of when I made a decision for myself. A decision to regain my health and start a new journey. Yet, that journey is not what this entry is about ent...

No Walls

As it appears, I have always existed behind walls. I built them high so no one could break thru my barrier. I didn’t want to know anyone and didn’t want anyone to know the real me. I was conditi...

This may sting

I want to apologise to anyone who ever walked away from a conversation with me feeling like I treated you like you were less than a person or that you didn’t matter. If I ever posted something th...

What if...

I don’t believe in coincidence. There, I said it. When I began this journey the sole purpose of these entries was to write about things I couldn’t say out loud. The anonymity was intriguing and t...


Book Description

The path my life has taken has left me with more questions than answers. I always believed that whatever you dreamed and worked hard for it would happen. At some point I woke up and the 9 year old little boy who dreamed of selling out stadiums and playing music apparently, was never born.
