  • Everchanging Love & Some Dark Truths

    A lot of emotional shedding lately and I’m wondering if I’ve fallen off the wagon. Or maybe it’s just this dark weather in June that has me in the feels. Rightfully continuing to change the course of my life so I can stay in motion. So, I can. Be happy? So, I can. Find my…

  • May Your Home be You

    I never thought I’d be roaming like this. Sleeping in random places and moving in between spaces with solitude of where to call my “home”. Not looking for pity or attention.

    After an incredible jazz fusion set, the group made its way to the bar area where I was downing Corona’s by the hour. By then, I had met a few of the regulars in prior shows and talked to Chad several times about how awesome I felt he was. This distinctive night was life-altering. I…
