Remain Optimistic

There is one way of life that can make you strong minded...optimism. The concept of life is that in the end everything will work itself out. I'll tell you I've been in some bad situations where everything seems hopeless. But there goes that sweet underrated part of my soul telling me, everything will be okay. I'm here. I'm alive. I made it. So I can look forward to being a survivor. Besides that, life is so precious you don't want to get caught up in the mundane routine of negative energy, thoughts and feelings. We should feel blessed and fortunate for that breath of air that we take advantage of.  There is so many parts of the body in motion just to keep you alive. That's a beautiful thing about us as human beings. Forget yesterday's troubles and live in the moment. Take a breath and realize that everything will be okay. It could always be worse. So appreciate everything you love.  Enjoy your day.  Thank you for stopping by. May your day go in peace.

One love

The time is right

Where should I begin. I have just awoken to a message I have been waiting for all month. Strange things can happen when you put your energy out there for the universe to respond...and the universe has responded. I never have doubt when it comes to the law of attraction. You receive what you give. Just remember that anything is possible and we can achieve anything we put our mind to. That's how powerful our energy as human beings is. We can all achieve our destiny. Enjoy the ride because we only live once. You might as well live it up and reach for the stars. One day at a time. Stay blessed. Thank you for stopping by. May your day go in peace.

Feeling blessed

Day by day,  they say is the way.
On my own terms I said that's the only way...I want to live.
I can forgive, but can you forgive me.

Just wanted to give you a little sample of lyrics from one of my new songs. It's all about the good vibes with good feelings to go along with it. Well the feedback on the upcoming show is very receptive and I am just counting the days til the show. I have been rehearsing everyday. I am playing 10 brand new songs and I want them on point.

I hope everyone has a great weekend. Thank you for stopping by. May your day go in peace.

Let it go

Don't sweat the small stuff. Learn to just move on because tomorrow is always a new day. No need to dwell on things you have no control over. All you can do ia throw a smile on your face and move on about your day. Move on to the next moment and focus on the present. The present is a gift so don't over look the goodness right before your eyes. Life should be enjoyed to the fullest. We all only get to live once so don't hold anything back. Live and learn my friends.  Thank you for stopping by. May your day go in peace.

Forgive and forget

Wash away people's negative actions towards you. It not even worth the time to get all huffy over things you don't have control of. People are going to behave and act like stubborn tyrants. But, pay them no mind. We must be the bigger person. No need to argue, just walk away. Misery loves company and its time to break the cycle. We have a choice on how we react. Don't let emotion, fear and anxiety get in the way of your progress. Life is so beautiful and we all deserve to enjoy it. Life is too short to focus on the past. Live for now and forget the rest. Do your best and know I'm rooting for you. Thank you for stopping by. May your day go in peace.

Refreshed

We all have a purpose in life, it is just a matter of figuring out what it is. The universe is filled with opportunity to do whatever you choose to do. When you put your thoughts into motion it creates an energy field for the universe to respond and help you manifest your dreams. It takes a positive attitude and a whole lot of optimism to make things happen. But if you are willing to put in the effort that is a start. We all must start somewhere and today should be the perfect excuse. Follow your passion and see how far it will take you. Most of all...never give up hope. We all will face adversity, it is just a matter of how we respond. Keep an open mind and the possibilities are endless. With that said thank you for stopping by. May your day go in peace.

Succulent Wonderland

Today, I would like to take the time to share a long time friend of mine, Brandon Godina's business. Succulent Wonderland is a very cool and creative start up business. For those who don't know what succulents are, I'll briefly explain...different types of plants that look like cactus or blooms that don't need much soil or maintenance, just a little bit of water from time to time. I am no botanist so I hope that explains my brief description. Brandon is creating art with the succulent's and recycled materials. Some of the items are very original and creative. You can check out their website:

Kindness

Share the love today and show your appreciation for everything. Be kind to everyone you come in contact with. It can be as simple as a smile to a stranger.

One day at a time keep getting better at this contagious habit...better yet a better life.

As the world turns

I hope for one day that we can all live in peace. Side by side, from all walks of life. We are all one kind Human kind. We are all one regardless of our roots. We must harness the universe to manifest this needed equality throughout the world. One day at a time, I hope my music can spark a change in the way we live. We can all be better human beings towards one another. I just use music as a tool to bring upon that change. Listen closely to the lyrics and music and see the vision your mind interprets. Brick by brick is my method. As long as I can at least touch someone musically everyday then its mission accomplished. I do not seek fame or fortune. Nonetheless I just want to impact the world on a global scale. It is possible to unite harmoniously with music, society as a whole. That is what music is to me. With that said thank you for stopping by. May your day go in peace.

Make it count

There are so many ways you can tap into your soul. For me it's stillness within my being. complete calmness. You don't need to meditate to be in this frame of mind. Just focus on the now. It will bring about a state of mind that we should be living daily. We cannot let our minds carry the brunt of this constant negativity that weighs in on our life. Life is too short to focus on the negative. We must awaken ourselves to the vibrancy of the universe. Get in touch with your being and inner soul. We can achieve peace in our minds and release ourselves from the tension. One day at a time. Thank you for stopping by. May your day go in peace.

Don't sweat the small stuff

Some day's things just do not go our way. But hey that's just the way life works. Despite all the positive energy you emit, there can still be a void in the universe that is too overwhelming to battle. When this happens all you can do is buckle your seat belt and enjoy the ride. It maybe a bumpy one, but in the end, as long as you can get through it alive and well...then hey no sweat. Nothing loss nothing gained. I'll admit everyday of my life isn't perfect, but I approach the situations with an optimistic open mind. Why let the misery love company. Just keep a smile on your face and keep it moving forward. Remember tomorrow is always a brand new day. A day where yesterday's don't matter. Accept life as it comes at you and react accordingly. We are our own worst enemy and the only way we can gain control from this mindset is by changing our frame of mind. Release the tension,  breathe calmly and find a stillness within your being. We all can do it. I promise. With that said thank you for stopping by. May your day go in peace.

Living the life

Something about moving to Ojai has changed my life. The energy flow here is amazingly incredible. My creativity level has soared and I believe it has to do with living in Ojai. It's an incredible feeling everytime I step outside. The view of the mountains and the skyline just puts my mind at ease. I'll never forget what this magical place has done for my life. The timing is just right for my frame of mind. Appreciate the beauty of where you live. Tap into its source of energy and let your creativity come alive. Thank you for stopping by.  May your day go in peace.

Embracing

When life comes around full circle, you must embrace it. Life is too good to ignore the beauty of it. Take each day one at a time and make the most of it. Trust me...peace and love is all we need.

Bittersweet

Life can sometimes throw us a curveball which is quite out of place. We must handle each situation as it comes at us. It may feel like a test but we must remain optimistic and positive. Sometimes when we make decisions out of anger and we set ourselves up for a setback. Rule of thumb is to think before we react. Think about the positive and negative results of our choices and choose wisely. Remember that we are in control of our own destiny. Make sure to make your objective count. The destination is quite unsure but it's about the journey of life that makes us who we are. Stay positive despite the negative forces that can be pulling us in every which a way. We can succeed. Thank you for stopping by. May your day go in peace.

Liberation

Stress can be very debilitating towards your health. The strain put on your body leads to so many health issues. When that stress builds up to a certain point it can be fatal to the soul. Live care free and take life as it comes you. I am not saying to forget about responsibility for your priorities. Life is all about responsibility but it does not mean that you can't have fun. Enjoy the simple things in life. I start out my morning appreciating the smell of coffee. It can be something as simple as that. It doesn't take much to please ourselves. So enjoy life to the fullest. We only got one life to live. So live with no regrets. With that said thank you for stopping by. May your day go in peace.

Give thanks

Today is a day to be grateful for all that you have. Reflect on your life and remember how far you have come to get here. Life is all about smiles and positive energy. Nothing less than that. Give yourself credit for all the good in your life.  Everything happens for a reason. 
There is no such thing as coincidences. I always try and remember where I have come from, because it gives me piece of mind. We all have our struggles, but that is whats made you today. If I can do it, anyone can. Thrive towards a conscious mind and never forget how good the present moment feels. No past, no future. Just right now. With that said thank you for stopping by. May your day go in peace.

Freedom

Today has been a long time coming. I am currently on my way to get released from house arrest. Its been 2 months and the time is finally here. We all make mistakes and we have to pay the consequences. You don't realize how much you appreciate freedom until it's taken away from you. But while on house arrest so many amazing things have happened. Its been a blessing in disguise and I am truly thankful. Well thank you for stopping by. May your day go in peace.

Peaceful unity

Freedom of expression is vital to any society. We must be able to think and be creative. It seems as though when we do express ourselves people around the world are oppressed. That should be a necessity in our lives. Freedom of speech is the 1st amendment in our constitution and we Americans get hassled when exercise our fundamental right. I am an advocate for peace and equality for everyone.

I am also an advocate for people diagnosed with mental illness. It seems like we get the worst end of things to that equation. Being diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia I have experienced first hand the improper treatment. We must be aware of issues going on in the world because one way or another they affect everyone. Stay conscious my friend's. With that said thank you for stopping by. May your day go in peace.

Feels great to pay the bills

My fiancé and I do not live a life of excess. We are perfectly happy keeping it simple. That's what I love so much about this woman. She has taught me so many things about life and about myself. She has provided me the guidance to become a better man. A man's man. Just the necessities are what's most important. She was the light that guided me on the path of true love. I have nothing to hold back when I express my love for her. I want the world to know that there are still good men and women out there. She is the proof in the pudding. I have no problem expressing my love for her to the world to hear. She makes me proud to have someone so supportive. I love you baby. Your my inspiration and my muse. Thank you for everything. With that said thank you for stopping by. May your day go in peace.

Make love not war

It deeply saddens me about the non stop civil unrest going on throughout the world. People dying everyday unjustified. We all must go back to our roots and remember we are all human beings. We are all one kind, human kind. If people would only acknowledge that point it would be a better planet. The costs of war in this century would be catastrophic. The type of weapon arsenal so many possess could cause an end to the entire human kind to the point of extinction. Bottom line no one wins. There are so many people in poverty and dying of famine that if the money used behind military was used to help people there would be no starvation. It just puzzles me. Today I plan on writing a new song of peace and hope we can spread the message worldwide.  There is nothing cool about murder and genocide. We must stand up and do what we can to put it to an end. Thank you for stopping by. May your day go in peace.

Mission accomplished

Its been a big pain in the butt to get my home studio up and running. We jumped through so many hoops to get it to work on our Mac computer.  New operating system. Updates etc. Nothing worked. Then I was like lets try it on my PC...Interestly enough it worked no problem. So still to this day I firmly believe I am just a PC kind of guy. Lol. Now I get to perform my vocals until I get it sounding the way I want them to before the big day in the studio. All in all very happy its all good. Have a great day.  One love.

Never give up the fight

Life can sometimes be a never ending battle. We may have too much negativity flowing through our brains. We must not be pessimistic about life. There is so much to be optimistic about. If you are stuck in a never ending labyrinth of negative thoughts in your mind then it is time for a change. Reset your brain and let the rewiring begin. First off you neeed to break away from those who you surround yourself with because that can be the source. Then you must focus on your mind and devote yourself to the positives in your life, regardless of how minimized they are. The hardest part is taking the first step forward to a whole new life that is patiently waiting for you. Trust me it's there...you just have to dig deep in your soul to find it. It may or may not come easy, but it is possible to break the cycle. Take it each moment at a time. One day at a time. Believe me it is possible when you're willing to put in the effort. Anything is possible. With that said thank you for stopping by. May your day go in peace.

One love
