That's Why God Created the Dream

What a week. I've been exposed, terribly, yet I am thankful for it. These past 7 days have been the definition of a hill and how it rises as you walk on it, and it falls as your walk continues...

The things that ate me up were delicate to my heart before mind, and I stand in shock still. Feeling replaced is never the best feeling. I believe it comes from being left alone enough times, beginning with my biological Father forsaking me at the age of one. Then, the death of my Mother felt like neglect from the almighty God. And last, the leaving of my Brothers to go live a better life out west; broke me down just a tad more. Now this. A beautiful girl at the tip of my fingers but also the frame of my heart and world; being held and tendered by another guy. I will only say this more; once a best friend of the opposite sex gets a boyfriend or girlfriend that isn't you, you have been replaced and you will drift slowly but surely. This is the reason for my complete cancellation to not let my feeling of false carelessness continue...

Last nights show was a P.O.S. and better yet, the poop icing on the cake for the week. It was unlike any other. Explain to me why we travel to Astor, Florida, two hours from my homeland, play what was by far the best show my band and I have ever played; then, the next day, we arrive back in Orlando to play a show at Rollins and only 7 of our band friends show up. It's not our fault at all. We blame the poor organization of the show advisers at Rolllins College and their lack of promotional care. Yet, I thank them for showing us that we are so much better than that and that they now belong in our category of time wasted. I would also like to thank them for paying us all $350.00 to play for a crowd of chairs...

Sorry, I had to get that one off of my chest. If not, my heart would have suffocated. On a happier note; my brothers are in town and I love them. I missed them so much. They are my sense of peace and hilarity. I'm still standing.



I'm looking forward to the days ahead. I'm going to be better, every moment I have any doubt. Love will find me later. As for now, I've got to leave the world with mouths and eyes open wide. Everything is Perfect. I was shaken, but like any brick house, I am mighty, rebuilt, and better looking. I'm going for it; all out, balls to the wall. THIS IS WHY GOD CREATED THE DREAM...

Love Brings New Things

I'm writing again, finally. After about a week or so since my last blog entry, I have this little delicate moment of space to just sit and write. Next to me is an amazing salad that I plan to scarf down from lettuce to tomato.



I'm grateful for all else that is around me, and I'm loving the new blessings the most high is pouring down...

Though I miss my friends at times dearly, I always remember that they have a special place in my heart. The heart lives for love of fellowship and they will always be my source of immediate strength. While on my journey to become a success, I remain busy and never stagnate so that I'm always trying to improve. I'm used to the every moment of being occupied and it keeps my brain fresh. With all do respect, I am better. With that said, I've gotten so good, that I have actual music stories to share, now, about what is up ahead. Shall I start with mine and my bands MAY FLA Tour?...

Listed above are just a few of the dates/cities/shows that we will be hitting while on this tour. I am so excited to finally be participating in a 100% real tour. I say the statement before because, unlike my tours when I was gigging with my brothers, for this tour, I didn't have to work as hard. Meaning, all of the aspects of this tour were/are scheduled, paid for, and planned out by a great promotional group entitled, PNR Promotions; from the transportation to the equipment.



Talk about a tremendous blessing!...

For those who did not know and/or are unaware, mine and my band's first EP Album hits iTunes as soon as we get back from our tour. In fact, take a look at the picture for the album cover.



Give it late until late May before the public can begin to purchase it. It's actual release date is April 25th and will be sold at all of our venues/shows on tour. If you beautiful people would like to purchase it ahead of time, feel free to travel to one of the tour shows. We would love to see you there...

Okay before I get ahead of myself and begin to spill too many beans and jinx my luck, I'm going to put this meeting of show and tell to a halt. You all are in my prayers and loved is what you are. Always remember that you are blessed and also, that LOVE BRINGS NEW THINGS...

Mai je être à l'aise

The poorest person can be the richest person at times. It’s all about the value of what we value. Love, peace, happiness, embrace, cherish, fellowship; all seen in the heart of a hippie. For the person who has little money, still has the greatest wealths in the world...



For the past four months, I’ve done some major exploring on the grateful side. By growing into the caveman look, with my full head of hair including facial, and eating healthy from scratch like a diabetic vegan, I’ve been able to challenge my way of wealth making. It has allowed me to learn how to compromise and improvise, not just on stage, but on the stage of my life. With my hands, I can reach out to the those rich in money, and tell them that love and peace among the folks in arms length is the richest wealth in the world. And there I was, my freshman year in high school; the sports addict who wanted a million dollars every millisecond.



I’m better for it now and more open to what really matters and makes matter...

Relax. Be real. Be whole. Be You. You can kick rocks and still be comfortable. You can live in a doghouse with your cat and be comfortable. Everything is Perfect either way. Your values often make you who you are. Give thanks. Give love. Never Give up. Keeping your heart before your mind is golden. Let the mind do the school/homework of today and the finances for tomorrow. Your heart carries all the values and feelings. May you feel and be comfortable. Mai je être à l'aise...

Fall in Love with the World

Though the earth is a million/trillion years old and has seen more people then us folks in the now will ever see in our lifetime, we still have many shared experiences as a unit; us and the earth that is. Our habits, thoughts, and functions all touch base with the many things in this world, including the things we love...

Lets take water and food for example. These are the two necessities we use for our nutrition. Depending on how we balance them depends on whether we suffer from malnutrition or create healthy bones of steel. Still, many, if not all the things we drink and eat come from the earth. Even our favorite plates;



No matter what it is, it has been picked from the heart of the earth. We love it...

I stumbled upon an amazing tin can water bottle that is earth efficient. On it is a chant using simplicity of three R's, saying, "reduce reuse recycle."



It's that easy. Seeing as that I love my surroundings, I would love to know that I am being helpful to them. This bottle says it all. Maybe one day, I'll save a stray kitten from choking on a plastic that used to lay in the street.



It's my plan anyway...

We live here folks. We love here folks. HERE is our domain. Take advantage in the right way all FALL IN LOVE WITH THE WORLD...

Wake Up

The day is dim, with flashes of sunlight by the hour. This means little to nothing to the dreamer who sleeps at fault of constant nightmares. For you have done nothing. It is your mind that has overtaken your heart. Open your eyes and begin to see the world outside your window, in a new way...

GIve things a try. I recently fond out that sharing is one of the greatest sacrifices in the bible. With that said, Bob Marley would be so proud of me for discontinuing my narrow train of thought, and opening up to new ideas.



The world is a better place in reality. Who says, though, that we're unable to bring our dreams to life?...

We struggle with love, peace, war, and life everyday. In fact, it has become our second language. Pure immunity, if you will. But we face it, realizing that we're just fine and we'll be fine. The motto is set in stone and said again and again, "Everything is Perfect," with no worries, sunshine, birds and bees singing in trees For it is our nature to be awake and be present...

I'm a fan of sleep in fact I would enjoy sleeping all day;



But think of what your eyes are missing. Think of how someone else's point of view is taking over yours. Trick of the trade; if you want to show your heart in full and be known for your presence, creating a dream-to-reality outcome, I suggest you all WAKE UP...

Starting Over

Looking back on all the horrible and dishonest things I've done to others and their hearts, I can finally say that I'm honestly sorry from the sink of my soul. Wrong is never right and if it's okay and swell with you, the reader, I would love to cancel this era of war making and make love between us instead...

For awhile today, I watched the blue sky go by and the birds and bees sing and play in the trees. Reminded me of my childhood days when it was okay to say, "It's okay," because THEN, we meant it. Yes, for me Everything Is Perfect now, but forgiveness creates more than perfection for an individual; factually, it is what created the earth. I spoke to God...

I am only human with a plethora of faults, who's decisions carry heavy burdens. If you, the reader, have been at fault for any of this, it was NEVER your fault. You are of pure awesomeness and I am thankful for you. I give you my hands to feel the constant pressure that will bel relieved if we can all just restart...

Whether a girlfriend, best friend, friend or friend of a friend, you are all still a deep part of my life and I love you. You are the reasons for the simple stories that create songs. Thank you and while making peace, I am also STARTING OVER...

Everything is Perfect

I am totally confident and well with growing to change and accepting that I do not get everything I want and would love to have. I am thankful and better yet grateful because I should be just that for all that I have and all else to come. I love my life and that love will never stop. I must move at a pace that surprises even me. So I will and in my journeys, I will make love; never war...

Material things are awesome and can create a mental satisfaction for sure. But this money mental process has peoples' thoughts all wrong. The dollar is just that; one thing. It's value means "just another number." Yes, at a local convenient store, you may purchase four of the sweetest blow pops, but you'll have those sweet colors all over your tongue before you can break that dollar into four quarters. There is little satisfaction in that correct? Think about that analogy in a bigger spectrum now...

Money doesn't fulfill happiness. Yes, it may create it but it (happiness) is not satisfied by it. My vacation to Panama showed me that I need not money, but the love for my friends and the time spent with them is worth each space in the galaxy and the universe. More in fact! I need nothing but ALL from them...

I had a complete blast and sharing each moment with my friends was special. Soon, we shall create moments like those again. This begins a new chapter for me. No matter what, my faith in words is set in stone and EVERYTHING IS PERFECT...
