I dont know anymore. it's really got me all screwed up. im in a constant state of confusion. I thought I knew what I wanted to do in life. I was all about music business for such a long time. my entire resume is 10 solid years of music business. and now what? im in new york city. serving lattes and driving a taxi. sure it's got it's ups and downs. don't get me wrong. but seriously. i was successful at one point in my life. at least that's what i keep telling myself. who knows. i got a band signed to elektra records when i was 20 years old. i've extensively traveled the united states and other parts of the world with rock bands. i owned a crappy retail store in tempe, arizona i booked 35 concerts a month in phoenix, tucson and albuquerque. as far as im concerned. i made it. i did it. but then what? you wake up and realize all you've ever done was sell someone else's art. your whole freaking life all you ever did was sell someone else's art. it's depressing when you get down to the brass tax of it. then again. some people do it their whole life and love every minute of it. im so thankful for this life. for all the experiences. for all the friendships, memories and everything else that came from it. life is beautiful. im so blessed. we're all so blessed. it's taking time to be thankful. taking time to inspire other people and make them think.



making life an adventure and writing about it. living to talk about it. that's what life's about for me. like when i threw everything in storage and moved to mississippi. i was living on a farm. picking cotton. falling in love with the civil war geeeez life was great. i could have spent the rest of my life on that farm. not a day goes by where i don't miss it. and think back on it. but it was an adventure. and that's what life's about. i wrote 200 pages on that farm. i haven't read a page of what i wrote. but one day i will.



And then I filed for bankruptcy, decided I wasn't going to pay for my house anymore, wrote off over $280,000 in debt, threw everything in storage, sold my cars and moved to New York City. After landing here, I immediately lost all my money in the stock market and almost went bust for good. But what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I'm driving a taxi, fell into 2 bar tending jobs, work at a coffee shop, and am learning as much as I possibly can about new york city. what are we doing here? why are we on this planet? does any of this interest you? who are you? do we know each other?
