I found a great musician.

I found an amazing fiddle/ violin player. Her name is Hannah Stockley. I found her on youtube and she happens to be from Cape Breton Island NS Canada. ( where my whole family is from) I am very excited to see if things will work out. SHe is a fantastic player. I recently sent her some music and we will see how things sound. I am exstatic to work with such a fantastic musician. CHeck her out on you tube and see for yourself.

so........

So. I have so many people in my life that call themselves my friends. Some really are my friends and many are not. The problem is that in most of my friend ships im the one who wants to keep in touch. I'm the one who has to strike up the conversations and to make the phone call. Im the one who has to ask if they want to hang out or simply whasts going on in their life. Well, i think to bennifit my self im going to stop. IM not going to stress my self out trying to remain friends with these people. Im going to stop trying. My real friends will remain. I realized my real friends will want to talk to me. They will want my company. So there for i am done. I really dont care if some of these people ever contact me again because im moving on with my life. And really, if im the the only one who realy wants to remain friends, whats the point? Are they really a friend? Or are they just using you for things. Im not talking about aquantances or poeple on face book that you knew in high school. Im talking about people that call them selves your friend. Do me a favor and end confusion. Dont say that im your friend, dont tell others i am your friend, and dont label me as a friend, because clearly i am not. I am done.

I hit a deer.

This is what happened. I was driving home after hanging out with my friend Ashlyn. I was driving about 45 mph when a deer jumped out in front of me. I braked as fast as I could. To my left, Iguess the second deer did not notice the giant mini van in the road and ran head first into my door. ITs face looked completely terrified when it realized the van was there. I didn't even have time to break completely. this all happened in a 2 second period.  The second deer got up and ran away. I was freaken out. So I drove to the nearest gas station and pulled over. I got out of the van and saw the dent on the side. The creepy part was the hanging on the metal above the tire was a huge chunk of fur!!!!!!!!!

Why I like Music

So many people ask me why I'm so passionate about music.  Here are some reasons why. 

 Music is simply amazing. It has the power to heal and to mend. It is able to lift up those who are down. Music lasts through time. It stands firm through the ages. It can tear  down and rebuild. It travels at 340.29 Meters per second. It never stops. It molds you. It flows around you. Its every where. For the most part its unavoidable and inescapable. It's beautiful. It needs to be created and to be heard. At 1 trillion decibels music can create light, there for creating color.  It helps us communicate with others, and someone bigger and greater than ourselves. It helps us to learn and grow. It defines generations. Its unstoppable, ever changing, and always evolving. Music is amazing. Music is life.

Follow Him

Following the one who saved me
Knowing the one who gave me
Life, freedom, and peace
Whose love will never cease
Fighting this battle from within
Trying to break free from my sin
Don't give up 
Don't give in 
Try not to reason with your sin 

But be a contender for what you believe 
Be a defender for those in need
The weak the poor the broken
Love the lost and speak for the unspoken

Don't get discouraged or be dismayed
But look to the cross and the image portrayed 
Listen for the sound clanking nails 
Of rattled  breath and mournful wails 

Know that he has set you apart
He'll stand beside you and never part

I love to write and write all the time. I write about my life experiences and anything else that inspires me. My dad pastors a small church outside of Chicago. I have many funny stories about growing up as a pastor’s kid, which will be posted soon.  I live in a suburb of Chicago called Barrington Hills. I love where I live but I still want get out and see more.  In April I am planning to leave for a music tour, starting in the east coast and working our way to the west coast.
