Who am I?
So today is Friday! Man did it take forever to get here. As I reflect back on this week, I have realized that my life is getting crazier by the minute. Karnell has decided to write a music book. This has taken us on a lot of little loop holes. To make things more hectic, he has also decided to teach drum lessons. Now you might ask, what am I doing for myself in all this musical stuff, my reply..."good question". Since moving here, everything that used to be stable, is no more. It's almost as if I am a completely different person. Friends that I thought would always be around, are fading. My sense of purpose, seems to shift with every passing day. I need a project! Something that will keep me stable and grounded. Hmmm...what could that be? I'm off to figure it out!

Importance
Well, today I embark on a new adventure. I am on the quest to discover myself. I know, you are probably thinking, why now...don't you know who you are? My reply would be, no, do you? I have pride myself in being what everyone else wanted me to be, that I became this generic person, ready to mold in whatever form was needed to fit the occasion. My moving back to Springfield has really opened my eyes to a world that I never knew existed. As many of you may know, my sister was in a fire a couple of weeks ago. Seeing her on Saturday really put things in perspective for me. Life is short, what you do in your lifetime determines who you are. Here I am, knocking on 30's door, having accomplished what? In my eyes, nothing. My parents raised their children to be successful, independent, God fearing individuals. I have done nothing but move from that. Sure, my life is not the life of a bum, but pretty dang close. Where's the pride in who I am, what I'm becoming? So, I decided to take a long look at myself and see what I could change so that I can be a better person, not for others, but for myself. What can I do today that will impact my tomorrow? Life is too short, not to accomplish what I desire. Yes I know that in the overall scheme of things, God has the final say, but I am going to strive for my dreams until I hear different. Life and the Pursuit...
