What is happiness...



Happiness is as complicated as to learn to love yourself.

The Good...

Happiness comes within and to be fulfilled in one's own life is an everyday, day by day, inch by inch to make what makes you happy.

I play my guitar and it's what makes me happy. How far or good do I wanna be... Well that's my journey in life. I'm a performer/composer/guitarist and I have experience lots of love from people that are touched by my music. It did not happen over night and I've come along way to my high or happy place. Am I fulfilled?? Nope - very far from it and I still have my every day demons for me to deal with. Nothing worth having is ever easy. I went through struggles, mistakes, humiliation, hunger just to achieve my vision. I haven't even made the big times yet but it does not matter because I'm fulfilling myself in doing what I love to do.

I have this saying that I say almost everyday and I'm grateful... God... As long as my friends and family and there inner circle are healthy and doing well, everything else I can handle.

The Bad...


Unhappiness in the way we look can sometimes our biggest demon. The media feeds you through MTV, TV, radio, magazines and other force fed bull shit, to see what the norm is and we feel we don't fit in with trend, movie stars, and rock stars. Not to mention going through our golden years of being a child to adulthood. We become condition to be more afraid than to venture and experience. Most of the time we are told. No you can't do that, or that's impossible, no you are not good enough, you are too fat, short, ugly and I mean I can go on and on... So we start getting used too or mentally condition that we eventually believe that we can't do what we dream to do. Worst yet we get involved with the wrong crowd and sway ourselves into very dark places like drugs, alcoholism and waste precious years and sometimes we are in so deep that we never get out.

The Ugly... ahh the pill.. well not soo ugly....

Medication has come along way but it's not the answers to all of our problems either. Now I'm not talking about diseases or conditions that medication is a must. My mom takes medication that keeps her alive. Certain medication have done wonders while others have side effects that out weighted there promised good. I'm not savvy in this subject because I don't take any medication even for a headache. But what I can tell you is that 95% percent of my spam is about pills and commercials... Well you be the judge and I'll leave at that.
