Live in the Moment

About Me

Hello and welcome to my MySpace site. This site is dedicated to music and the artists who create it.Ever since I was very young, I have loved music. Growing up, I was exposed to a wide variety of different music through friends, one of which was a DJ who had an extensive music collection. I don't know what I would do without music in my life. I believe music has helped to save my life a few times. I am a creative and imaginative person who likes to learn, write, draw, and indulge in other creative things when I'm inspired to do so. Stop by periodically to say hello. I hope you enjoy my poems and writings.To all of you musicians and artists: THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for all the work you do to create your masterpieces. You express yourself and share your heart and soul with the rest of the world. And you do so with such ingenuity and personal creativity. Keep it up! I'm listening!In My PoetryIn my poetry I express in a rhyme... My feelings, emotions, and life experiences caught in time.I try to do so with intentions of true... I hope that there is something that you can relate to.Also, maybe there is something that you can learn... As to my poetry, your attention you turn.To laugh, to cry, to hope, to dare... And my crazy imagination with you to share.I give you my thoughts with all honesty... For our benefit, both you and me.So these are my intentions, and I hope you will agree... That these things are reflected in my poetry.Favorite sayings:"Gold is tested by fire...and human character is tested in the furnace of humiliation." --Bible, Book of Sirach 2:1-6"It is not what he has, nor even what he does, which directly expresses the worth of a man, but what he is." --Henri-Frédéric Amiel"Lead, follow, or get out of the way." --Henry Ford"Live in the Moment." --Author Unknown"Love is like a butterfly. Chase it, and it will fly away; stand still, and it will perch on your shoulder." --Author Unknown
