<h2 class="wsite-content-title" style="text-align:center;">Life is a <em><u>journey</u></em> yet our Final destination is more important !</h2>
<div class="paragraph" style="text-align:center;display:block;">All of my life, my dad has reminded me there are people who <u><strong><em>say</em></strong></u> they're going to do things.... and then there are people who simply do them....<br />he would always say "<strong><em><u><font color="#cc0000">make sure you're always one that simply does them</font></u></em></strong>!"<br /><br />Since there are still <strong><u><em><font color="#cc0000">many</font></em></u></strong> things in my heart to do... I continue moving forward based on what my dad taught me. <br /><br />Part of my journey includes my appetite for the music industry... mostly country oriented or focused, but I LOVE and respect most types of music. I won't go into this area too much. The less said, the better!! I'm not one for the spotlight, I don't want to get on a stage and sing.. and I certainly know at least a million guitar pickers and songwriters much better than me.... but it's fun to have access to the industry that goes back to the 1980's when I first met Reba McEntire, Narvel Blackstock, Garth Brooks, Eddie Van Halen, Mike Allen and many, many more talented artists and executives that I still admire to this day.. some 30+ years later. It's incredibly important to remember while famous, these are ordinary people doing something WE all love!! <br /><br />My mom, an "<em>angel borrowed from heaven</em>," would always temper those "things I wanted to do" to bring a level of <em>sensibility </em>back around to remind me that "<em><strong><u><font color="#cc0000">anything you have on this earth is only borrowed</font></u></strong></em>.... it belongs to someone else." She would then remind me that money doesn't necessarily buy happiness..... just more stuff...... she was ALWAYS right... but I sure do enjoy "Borrowing" some of the nicer things in life!!<br /><br />My dad would say... " If you want something... work to get it.." Mom, on the other hand would simply ask.... "OK, BUT do you <strong><em><u><font color="#cc0000">really</font></u></em></strong> NEED it?" <br />So, while I stand with a solid principle-based balance and a great foundation... I always lean a bit forward ready for the next step.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></div>
<h2 class="wsite-content-title" style="text-align:center;"><font size="3"><span style="line-height: 24px;">Photo: I love spending time in the studio when music is being created.. there's an energy in the air that you don't forget !!</span></font></h2>
