I never really thought about just how quickly opportunities can occur. I mean, I know I moved to New York City because well, it was basically a love at first sight kind of thing. Of course, there was no guy involved, it's just the city that entices me and well, it was a big change from home, but I've never felt regret towards my decision to up and leave, although my mother reminds me every single day as to what a huge mistake I've made and how I need to get my head back into shape and not be such a dreamer because dreams will only lead me to a dead end. Of course, if no one had dreams or a goal that seems far-fetched or unreasonable, where would anyone truly be? It brings me to that old fashioned saying, wait, if I could only remember how it went. If you don't live each day like your last, then you may as well already be dead? That doesn't sound exactly like what I had in mind, but I do suppose it still holds some type of positive meaning.
As far as since I've settled in New York City, it's been wonderful. There's so much to do and at times it seems as though there's not enough time in a day to do it all, and that of course, can be quite overwhelming but none the less, I still find myself a lot happier than here than anywhere else I've been.
As far as my career path, well, it seems like it's heading somewhere. I don't necessarily know if it's the direction I was looking for in particular, but it's definitely nothing to complain about and you'll never hear me complain, as far as that goes. But then I'm also reminded that fate and god, if you're of the religious sort will only lead you so far and it's up to ou as an individual to make it the rest of the way on your own. So, really if you complain about where your life is headed or where it has already gone, you're complaining about yourself because life in all aspects is what you truly make of it.
When I'm not busy at work, which I am usually working so it's kind of difficult to find the time to do anything non-work related, but as I said, when I'm not busy, I've been finding the time to just sit down and write. Maybe it won't take ten years or so to get another full length album finished, even if no one has any idea at all about it other than a small select few because I've still yet to be signed and well, that doesn't really bother me any. I prefer intimate settings than crowds who will remember you one day and fail to remember that you exist the next.
