So this is my new blog. Ahhhh… It’s like a breath of fresh air writing on a untouched sheet of paper, or screen for that matter. I decided to create a new blog because for the past few months the previous one I had was solely dedicated to my depression due to being involved in a number of things I felt trapped or imprisoned by. So this blog will be dedicated to more of the positive things that are going in my life, because if you sit down and think about it, you probably do have more blessings than you count – rather than focusing on the negative things.

So, I’m only going to touch on this once, and then I refuse to mention it again on this blog. I recently quit a band that I was in that played around Kansas City, due to just basic unhappiness, financial problems, and family problems that I needed to take care of. Since then, I’ve been ostracized, probably hated a tad bit, but in the end I am happy with my decision because it’s one that I had to make to better my life, and in the end your happiness should be the only thing that matters. I don’t bear any animosity, or grudges, and I’ve finally been able to let go of everything. The past few weeks have been extremely hard, but I am blessed. I had no idea the amount of friends that I had here until I went through a crisis. These people have opened their homes to me, and have stood by and supported me through this difficult time. I am eternally grateful to them. I will still make music on the side, but I realize that I have a passion for education, and I plan to journey further in that as a career. Hah, maybe release a few good songs on the side eh? ;).

Anywhoo, that’s where I am at. Those who have taken the time to know what kind of person I am, know that I am an extremely nerdy guy, but pretty proud of it. I think it makes me unique – all of the things that I’m into. And luckily I have a group of friends that help add on to the geekiness. So mostly this will be a blog where I will post pictures of different events and just spur of the moment things that we all get into. Or, I may post some pictures of some travels I’ll be doing in a few months.

These are exciting times indeed. When one door closes, there definitely is another one that opens. God has blessed me throughout all of this and given me peace about a lot of things that have went on between myself and other people, and I am confident that he is in complete control of my life, I have been seeking him even more so since I’ve found a wonderful church to go to here in Kansas City. I am anxious to get involved.

There’s a ton going on. In a few weeks I’ll be visiting a 5th grade class to talk about music, and I have some wonderful job and music prospects. It’s only wise that I take a good break from the lifestyle I’ve been involved in for a while. I’m not sure too long, but yah vacations are nice – or so I’ve heard. I’ve never had one.
