An avalanche starts out with a vibration, or a disruption to cause snow to travel away from where it fell. Along the way, it picks up more snow and travels at an increasing velocity. Next thing you know a mountain's worth of snow is screaming down the hillside plowing over everything in it's path while still gaining momentum to cause destruction without regard to anything. That, my friends, has been my 2006. I'm so sick and tired about writing on sad things; but, it is as if I've been in a long line and the person in front of me had a declined credit card, then had to put back food, then forget her checks, then the manager came over, then finally got her taken care of to find out that the computers froze and I had to find a different line starting out in the back all over again.
Everything has been in place, I have my groceries, I have the destination, people are waiting for me at the destination, but I can't seem to get out of the damn store. And right when I finally see the light and am walking to my car, out of the blue a bus plows itself directly into it and demolishes my way home.
I know, this year has presented its challenges. And when things finally found solid ground, it all just slips away. So, I'm left with my personal backpack on the side of the road trying to figure out in which direction to start. So, the positives: Once again, I am starting my personal life all over, after 8 years. I know I have a choice: 1) Be sad and spend a lot of time proving how sad you are and waste precious, valuable time or 2) Move forward and get over life's hurdles as best as I can, not letting moments pass me by.
Well, I choose #2. I've never quit anything in my life that I so cherish, and I don't plan too. The music industry is a pain in the ass, it's not the mythological oasis that so many dream it to be... that can only be accomplished from within. And Love is all around. We live through love and want to share life with someone till the very end, where you'll then meet in the skies as a reputable team, in the hearts of all you touched. Passion, Love, Trust, Honesty... there is no other way to live. I believe.
So good riddance year 2006. You have kicked me when I was already down and ended it with a bus. But I will continue to stand up and move, as there is no other way. Year 2007, I welcome you, and I also look forward to you. We have a lot to accomplish, and I'll need your help in doing so. I pray for everyone peace and happiness. Have a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanakuh, Kwanza, Holiday. Let's make 2007 great, shall we!?
Cheers,
Chad
