More Music Sooooooon and Some Thankfulness
I'm getting super close to finishing up a new song. I am getting pretty excited about sharing this song. It's a pretty serious song and there's a lot of emotion in it. Hmmm... so... I think... or I guess... maybe... it's been a while since I finished a song. I think perhaps I've been neglecting doing music some. I should get back to being more serious about music. I mean that is my first love as far as being creative goes and... I suppose... I do like to try out other interests... like stand up comedy. But I really should stick to music first. I should be taking it more seriously and trying to do more with it to get it out there. So... I'm going to do that.
I was going to post tonight about my idea to release a movie in theaters with no ending and then have the audience submit endings and then they make it a few months later and release the ending to theaters... or part 2 of the movie. But I decided to post this little mini blog tonight on music. I'll save the alt ending movie idea post for another evening.
But... yes... I definitely do need to try to do more with music and to kind of maybe... hmmm... start putting more into trying to make a serious jump from just having it be a side hobby thing to perhaps becoming something that is much more legitimate. I think that uploading my one song to CDBaby and then having it on iTunes was definitely a first step. But I need to play more actual shows. I need to really try to get my songs out there and I need to maybe make a real CD and kind of just start looking at it from a more serious perspective. Afterall it's what I really do love to do. Playing music, writing music, recording music, producing music. I love all that. So... I'm gonna give that a go. Try to submit my music to different places and things and such... if I get told no... or no response... hey at least I gave that effort instead of just kind of keeping things on the backburner.
So yea. Maaaaaaaaybe I just needed a reminder of that. Life is just sooooo jumbled... there's soooooo much always going on! But... no matter how hectic things get... it's still good and interesting and wonderful and I'm glad to have the abilities that I have and be blessed with the talents I'm blessed with. I think maybe though I don't put those abilities and talents to the full use that they could be put to. Sometimes I don't see that but others do and they remind me of it. And... I'm just very thankful for that reminder. So I think what I'm saying is this is just a general thanks post for those who give me encouragement on being creative but more specifically with music.
Sometimes I think... that I owe so much in thanks just... in general... it's like a debt that can never be repaid. I hope I'm making sense. Sorry my mind is kinda thinking a lot tonight... and today now marks 10 years to the day since my grandmother on my moms side passed from cancer... so that's not easy... and yea... I know what I mean to say but I'm just not sure exactly how to say it. Ok on that note i'm just going to get myself some sleep. But... I don't know... I'm just in a very thankful mood because I feel like... there is just a lot I should be very thankful for and so... I want to take what i've been given and try to use that to be more productive with it and then give back. And just create.
