My Journey
If you are reading this right now thank you! You have a heart and I appreciate you taking some time out of your day to read my story and hopefully afterward you might leave feeling more resilient. Anywho let me start off by saying that you have a story too whether you know it or not. It’s our nature to go through things, make mistakes, even feel like we don’t have a purpose here on earth. Well sorry to break it to you, this is your life and the universe or god said let me create something beautiful. So that being said, “Yes” you are worth it and you do have a purpose. Life is hard but I think we all could agree that it’s not impossible unless you quit. I know your not a quitter and you’ll soon one day see what I’m talking about. To better understand what I mean I will map it out for you, the struggles each person experiences is different right? I believe that each of us has certain challenges that are only meant for us. Personally I wish that wasn’t the case but we must struggle first, then learn and become the person we were destined to be. Welcome to my page and thank you for reading the intro to My Journey. The names Bryan and the stories you will be reading is to inspire. If you are feeling alone take a moment and read a little because you are not alone. There’s so much in this world we miss because we don’t take our time to really be heard or depend on only what society has to say. Please stay tuned for part one of My Journey, it really means a lot to me. For the longest time, I have struggled verbally sharing my thoughts so I chose this way of telling my story because since I was about seven, expressing myself through words was difficult. I would start off by having a thought but when trying to say it out loud it just made me agitated. I was originally born with Spanish being my first language which changed once I came here to the United States with my new family. Yes, I was adopted and born in Guatemala, a country located in Central America. I was really excited to come here and start a new and better life, and to tell you the truth I wanted to be an American and have nothing to every do with my home country. I will explain more on these things later on but for right now I’m just giving you a brief gist on what you will be reading. After being adopted I literally thought that I was the last person of my kind. Going back was a fear I had because I really wanted a new and safe place to call home. My grandma who came alongside with my new mom always told me that I wanted to be an American. Now I’m 19 years old and living a better life, but I’m still growing and facing challenges but it’s all part of a story that will have a beautiful ending. Yes, my past was hard but I think I’m learning to accept who I am and how my life came to be. My mom has always tried keeping me in check even through all the hardships and challenges we’ve faced, I’ve faced. I have people who support me but it’s me who needs to help myself, I have lots of faith that I will eventually make it to the other side. You will also make it because your a fighter and you deserve the best things to happen to you. So take a moment after your done and pat yourself on the back for waking up this morning, that’s a sign that you have hope and that is something to be proud of! You can only move forward and remember every single person on this earth has a story. Let’s spread positivity and use the internet in a more beneficial way, what you say friend ready to change the world.

Music can Inspire
The first song I’ve ever listened to that really spoke to me was called Wake Up by Nf. For those who don’t know who that is, he originally started as a Christian rapper. In 2010 he debuted his album “Moments” as an independent artist. I have listened to him before he became big and before he opened a whole new door for me. He has become my inspiration to continue my passion for music and that speaking my mind through lyrics can be an inspiration for others that they are not alone in this world. I believe that there are no strings attached to one person. That it takes a whole nation to either destroy or restore balance. If the world was more understanding about mental health, we would be saving lives. I have a strong belief that sometimes all somebody needs is reassurance, that when times are hard their worth doesn’t decrease and in the end, things will turn out okay. So the reason the song Wake Up gave me a sense of realization about my own life and why my perspective towards the world was not a hundred percent accurate, was when he said, “You spend your life in a dream that you can’t escape.” What I got from that line was that if you spend most of your life thinking about what will happen tomorrow or even five minutes from now, you will tend to overthink the moment your living right now instead of enjoying what is in front of you. Sometimes though, the world can create a certain idea in a kid’s mind that when reality hits the dreams they had in mind are simply stripped away. There’s a lot of greatness in this world but giving out a false proposition of what life is like. Especially young individuals whose lives are just starting, telling them what is expected of them, which kind of people are accepted in society, and which people can be successful. If more positivity was spread and we had more awareness of how our words can hurt someone else, I think our world be a little less negative. My goal in this life I live is to tell good stories through music and the words I speak. For the longest time I thought rapping and singing about life experiences and how one’s perspective can help someone else realize that they aren’t alone in the world. That it’s okay to struggle, make mistakes, and feel like nothing is ever going to get better. When I heard his song Wake Up, I finally told myself this is my destiny, that my dream to become a music producer and make my own songs is possible. You could say that his music has inspired me to make songs that can help someone who is struggling in their life, know that things will be okay and that giving up means you are taking away every opportunity to have a great life. In my life personally I have second-guessed my potential to be a good person. All the thoughts that I have ever thought of, whether it was about myself as a person or what others thought of me, I was so determined that all these 19 years of my existence, I had no purpose what so ever. Even the people who were close to me always told me that my happiness was disturbed because I would get in my own way. I’m pretty sure you have faced many obstacles or are still facing them today but just remember you can do it! Like I said I was once was going through that stage like there was no point in fighting anymore. Yes, I mean the pain that always was there, those thoughts, the fears, your insecurities about yourself and the way you look, feeling lonely like there’s no end to the storm you’ve tried so hard to get out of, that no one cares about you, the mental health issues, certain circumstances that made you feel worthless and that being born was a mistake. Society telling you if you fit in or not, being abused, others hurting you and telling you that you are not good enough, and maybe the world will be better without you. That’s just half of the things people go through and personal I have too. I hope you as the reader was able to get a grasp of some of what I was saying. I think it is safe to say that I’m fully awake, but are you ready to be wakened. We all have a start and an end, so let’s make the best of it while we can. ~Bryan
