One thing!

As a little girl, I always felt like I was meant to be a performer on a stage. I've been in different types of dance classes since the beginning of time, acted in plays, sang in choirs, competed in talent shows, hit up karaoke bars during my party days (even offered a job on the spot at a Coyote Ugly!). However, as I'm less & less involved with that rock star personality from my past, I have been feeling a stronger urge to be on stage!

As of lately, I've been feeling this call to perform christian/gospel music. I think this is one of those tasks God lays on your heart to do & I think I have put too many of those tasks on the back burner. This is one task I am actually going to subtly attempt. So far, I've hit up craigslist & added a post to bring up the idea in case someone with an instrument would like to help me out. I also searched around to see if anyone else in the area has similar interests & even wrote a hand full of emails.

One issue I'm having is writing song lyrics. I used to be pretty decent, but I feel very rusty! Any tips? Encouraging words of advice? &another, my piano playing skills are all out of whack. I would really like to learn how to play guitar.. how should one begin to tackle such a task?

It's quite a liberating feeling to just suddenly start making steps towards a goal such as this. Nothing may happen of it, but if I write one song & sing it at a church & one person actually listens & God sends a message to that person through my song... then mission complete!! Learning guitar has always been something I've wanted to do anyway, so I really couldn't be more excited about taking on this adventure.

Dove Awards, here I come! :D



No, really tho... is there any single thing that you have always wanted to do in your lifetime? Something you have simply dreamed of?? Then I challenge you to make an attempt at that one thing. Give a try. What's the worst that could happen? You figure out it's not all it's cracked up to be, or get bored, or fail?? I look at it this way... instead of any of those scenarios, try this one instead: I TRIED. &All of your friends will say, "You go, girl!" *snap the finger, snake the neck* :) hehe

X's & O's!
