To each their own..

            I read different types of blogs all the time, and I know mine is very different. That's the part I pride myself on. I wanted to be unique. Let's be real for a moment shall we?

There is a blog for everything. A blog for religions, music, books, even funny videos. I started writing in this blog almost a year ago, just to share common things with every day people. Of course, I wanted to talk about books, but I found that blogging was almost like journal writing. I could just write about whatever came to mind at the time. I also thought that was the point to blog. Then I found that the more I shared the more people were living the same kind of life. I assume most people think authors are rich and or just crazy. I am not one of those things. Rich. Yep, I am crazy, but not rich. Hahaha.

Your probably wondering why am I even discussing this, and here is the reason. Because of all of you, I stay encouraged to be real. To be myself, to discuss random bull s**t with others. I guess you could say, we all know that everyone's lives aren't  peaches and cream. I know mine is not. There are days that are just bad. There are days that are fantastic. Then there are days in between. That's how I see life. Every day isn't going to be some marvelous day that we just need to share with the world. Nope, that's not going to happen.

My thoughts were that I would just say that it's okay that days aren't always great. We need to remember the good days in between. Taking a little time for us to breathe, to catch our breath, take the time. Take time for yourself, take time to share your love with others. Everyone needs a moment to reflect, and everyone needs to know that they aren't alone. Some days we will feel alone. This is normal. You are alone at times. That's okay too.

Today, my mind is focused on something, I didn't think it would. I have a big decision to make, and my fear is if I do one thing I will lose who I am, if I don't do it, I may never know. We all have to make hard choices in our lives, even on the days we seem to think are random.

You just never know what opportunity will be knocking on your door, if you always searching for something. Finding yourself, in the bore of every day life, then someone knocks and you are left with a decision.

I am encouraged by all of you, knowing that I can do anything I put my heart and soul into. Even on the boring days, it's still a day I woke up, and am alive.
Try to remember on the random days, that this is life. That we are alive, and today may not be so boring after all.

Wednesday Music Playlist

   It's that time of the week again.. Where I share about music, and what new bands, and even some old ones!

Let's get this party started, shall we?
It's no shock to anyone that I love AWOLNATION. The album is amazing! So, many great songs! It's real, the lyrics are real, and the vibe is kicking!

I have also spoke of the band Bear Hands. They have been around for a little while, but I think their music is way underplayed. The very first song on their album, Distraction, is absolutely awesome! It made the playlist for Charmed Destiny.

"This is not what the Gods made us for, sacrificial lambs.. Let the weaklings drown."
WOW! Those words are pretty deep!

"I'm a butcher the bible says so.. All caged up. Death to sacred cows."

This song has some lyrics that people may not have heard at first when listening, but that's some deep words. An underlying purpose.

This isn't to offend others, but the song is pretty dead on. That's why I chose it for the playlist of Charmed Destiny.

Most of the album is pretty freaking amazing!

Next would be a new band that sent me their music yesterday. Moderne. They sent me a link yesterday. I seriously liked it! They have an alternative sound, but also a new sound.


Okay, let's see what else I have in my bag of tricks today.

Meg Myers! How could I forget her? We found her on our favorite radio station, 96.5 The Buzz a while back. A long while back. Her album isn't actually out yet, but we have both of her EP's. Yeah, I like her that much.

Curbstomp I have used on the playlist, and am searching for what other songs from her that I could use.
She has a sound that no other female has right now. I am a big FAN!

I think that covers it today. I generally, listen to the music, and if I like it, I listen to it again. I love hearing the lyrics. It's what makes a song mean so much more to me.
          Take the time, to listen to music. Find something that makes you feel.
Find music that makes your soul come alive. That's what it's all about in this life, right? Feeling, learning, loving...

In the words of Meg Myers.. "I am falling in deep to you, my love is after you.."

Weekend Baby!

Today, I am going to share some of my favorite teaser from my new book. It's a darker book for me, but I happened to like the dark. This book was everything dark I wanted to say and then some. I get asked quite a bit if because this is my take on Romeo and Juliet will it end how that story ends, well... That you will just have to read and find out.

Meet Bridget this Spring, coming to an E-Reader near you, very soon!
