Truths


There's beauty in being broken.

When you don't bear fruit, life becomes about you.

Stop living vicariously through other people's stories and start living yours.

Resolutions for 2014

Things I resolve to do in 2014: Consult God before all my decisions. With all the opportunities that will be coming up soon, I will have to make some quick decisions. I just want to make sure they're the right ones because these decisions can direct the rest of my life. Eat healthier and start exercising regularly. My body is getting older, and with my 30th birthday coming up, it's high time I start taking my diet more seriously. Time to have more self-discipline in what I eat and treat my body as a temple. Learn music theory. Now that I'm finally putting my music out there for others to enjoy, I want to write more and better songs. The biggest skill that would help me is music theory (basically the mathematics of music). This would help me create better chord progressions, which I struggle with now. Spend more time with God in the mornings. I usually drag myself out of bed in the mornings and rush to work. I want slower, more peaceful mornings. The times that I succ...

After the Festival

My show today went GREAT! I was very proud of my band, and we had a great scenery around us. There was a river and boat behind the stage, a green lawn in front of us, and tons of people and vendors. It was a sunny day with no rain (thank God), and we had amazing burgers afterwards. The sound guy could've done a better job, but as a musician, you get used to bad sound guys. I am just glad we got through our first performance! And even though we didn't do perfectly, I am still proud of us. With that said, I am now at home chilling all alone, still trying to recuperate from the hot sun today. I am busily posting pictures and videos of our performance, trying to stay on top of the social media game. Even though I'm single, I feel okay with it, and I am okay with spending the rest of my Saturday alone. I already had a pretty successful day, and I am satisfied. I don't need a million people to hang out with, and I'm trying to reconstruct my friendship base anyway. You...

Tragedies Turned Into Blessings

I am seeing God work in mysterious ways in my life right now. I'm starting to learn that even life's tragedies are the beginnings of God answering our prayers. My prayer for a change in my life and wanting to come home and be able to work on my dreams was answered my God taking away my job and allowing me to collect unemployment. At the onset, looks like a tragedy. But turns out to be a blessing because He answered my prayer in a better way than I had planned. If I had quit my job, I would have no income. I also prayed for my back to be healed, and then I got in a car wreck. Now I'm able to get frequent chiropractic adjustments for free, which I couldn't afford on my own. At the onset, a tragedy. But in the end, a blessing in disguise. One by one, God is answering my prayers in the strangest of ways. He has been healing me at home in ways that He couldn't when I lived in Austin. My healing is being completed here. Austin did a good start, but it was beginning ...
