:: WHAT I'VE LEARNED ::
Need is good. Neediness is not.
Listening is good. Selective listening is not.
Trust is earned. Mistrust is learned. Distrust comes from getting burned.
Holding on is good. Holding on too long is probably not.
Holding out can be exciting. Withholding is cruel and unkind.
Loving yourself is good. Being in love with your self-image is not.
It's not what you say. It's a lot what you do.
And honesty's like fate: it matters in the end.
Songwriters, singers, bands and musicians of all styles and genres.
PLEASE TAKE NOTE....I'll consider Add Requests from CREATIVE PEEPS & ACTUAL FRIENDS ONLY....
