Lately, I have been thinking. I have a lot to be thankful for. I have a lot to be grateful for. Despite the hardships that I may have had growing up - mine don’t compare to some that were way worse. And even though yours may not seem as bad as mine, I would almost bet that in the moment yours was the worst in the world.
I began to think about where I am now. I wholeheartedly believe that where I am now is a true blessing from God. Enough so, that it actually erases all doubt of His existence in my life. I don’t say that to be judgmental in any way to anyone. It’s just the way I feel.
I am a kid who used to dream about being the biggest star on the music stage. I guess the problem that I never realized was I was just born in the wrong place at the wrong time. I am confused sometimes how things that I dreamed about come true for people that was never looking for it. That does not make sense to me, but through faith I believe that maybe I was spared something tragic or some life-changing event that would have been horrible. I am where I am because that’s where I am.
I don’t believe I’ve lost anything. I don’t believe I ever lost out on anything. Because in my mind, there is no such thing as losing only learning. One of the most influential people in my life was my grandfather. When he passed it felt like I lost everything. Now, I look back and I didn’t lose him but I have learned that everything that stuck with me - means that he is always around.
As much as I would love to be on a tour playing for thousands of people three and four times a week - that’s what I want. It’s not necessarily what they want. That’s okay because they don’t know me yet. The way the world works I may be too old for it to ever happen. Again, that’s okay. I can always close my eyes and dream.
