I'm trying to be patient, and not become too anxious to get my music out.  Though It's very hard for a true artist to feel content without being heard.  These are my songs, my voice, and I want to be heard!

There seems to continue to be bumps along the way, which in life are expected.  The bumps are the hard parts, because it tends to cause confusion and make things uncertain.  Circumstances continue to rise up that cause me to go into a bit of a shell.  I hate to say that I'm a frustrated musician, but I have been lately.  I've been feeling a bit downcast in regards to my music.  As much as I try to be a positive person, I have my moments of sadness.  Most of it comes from not knowing what exactly is going to happen with my music.  I have faith in myself as a songwriter/artist, but it's not something I can do alone.  I want the right people around me, with my best interest at heart. 

This may be selfish, but I'm not concerned about any other artist.  Their music belongs to them, and my music belongs to me.  I simply want to share it with the world, and do what I love.  That doesn't mean I don't care about other artists, but I have to focus on being the best artist I can be. 

There is no way that I was given this gift to not use it, and I'm trying to use it!  I have this whole summer off, and if I could be in the studio every day, I would!  It's very hard for me to rely on other people, but it's something I have to learn to do in this industry. I can't do it all, but I have to do my part well.  

I do know this...I don't want to go another full year without these songs being done!  I'm tired of waiting, but because I love music...I will!
