Just Like music.

Music.

I guess with me, music has always been my personal escape. I can just relate to it. Any mood I may be in, music is always understanding and helpful. If I'm sad and just wanna be mellow, I can throw on a Thom Yorke song. If I wanna just vibe out and relax I can listen to Reasonable Doubt. If I'm angry ill listen to Hybrid Theory. Just any way I'm feeling, I have somebody who understands what I'm going through.

My whole life I have basically been surrounded by it. I was born into it I guess you could say. My moms a singer whose had the privilege of touring with greats like Stevie Wonder, & Phil Collins. Her dad Bobby Bryant was a well renowned trumpeter who recorded with Earth Wind and Fire and the Temptations. Coincidentally he mentored my future father who plays everything from the keyboard to the saxophone.

With all of that my parents never pressured me into it. I can hold my own in a couple stereotypical instruments. Bass, drums, and guitar (I'm getting pretty good at the later again because of my girl) but my real passion hasn't been in playing it, but rather exploring and experiencing it. I don't know where I would be mentally or physically for that matter with ought it. (music is also my spot in the gym ha ha) I know this has been long, but my best friend deserved this. I dedicate this post to the thing that has helped me through the most, and will continue to, music.
