Band Members: Dont allow yourself to focus on the threat of losing faith that your ego might not be able to handle following your dreams. Its tough to go somewhere you never have been before but always dreamed of. Distancing yourself from where you grew up, all the friends you know and the easy life of knowing what tomorow will bring. Life starts when you listen to that ever lasting thought in your mind, that deep embedded gut feeling that never quite settles with your normal way of living. Doesnt it suck waking up doing things other people love for you to do but you dont. When youre down to nothing all you have to come to realize that when its time to live you must live for yourself to be happy and at peace and not just in the direction of those who know whats best for you in their mind. I remember, I have very vivid memories of being sick just from watching tv and movies and videos, the industry as a whole.. but still living somewhere that would never allow me to become what I wanted to be. So began the personal journey, how do you get from point 'A' to point 'Z' when you have nothing to start with.. you just try! and never leave until you have in your possession what it is you came to be the best at. Sitting idle while others are doing what it is you love will drive you certainly insane. Pray for knowledge to gather the understanding of your true worth, and when that number comes back and its the most priceless thing you have ever heard do your best to believe it, then go in your power to do what you love. It takes everything you have... and even a little bit more after that. Do not lose faith when your faith is being tested. The strong will always get through no matter what. Starting from nothing doesnt mean that you cant eventually have everything. End your days knowing U R trying 2 become wut U havent yet but vividly wish 2 B- cv
