Passion For Writing
Everybody has their passion in life. For me, that's writing. My journey into the love of writing began when I was about fifteen. I took a creative writing course in high-school, and the tasks consisted of writing poetry and short stories. While some people may find it boring, I found it fascinating. It was remarkable how I can use my thoughts to come up with unique stories.

The Journey Thus Far
As a young man, my passion was bottomless and universal. I have specific memories of bringing levity to tense situations, being truly unaffected by the burdens of negativity. Difficult realities slowly eroded this sense of joy and the desire to spread it. I feel happens with most people. I have always had the feeling of a ship beset by harsh weather the moment safe harbor disappears over the horizon.

Here I Am
I have loved fashion for as long as I can remember. When I was a kid rocking my jazzy outfits, I felt better about myself; I stood taller and walked more confidently. I saw myself as handsome, debonair, and invincible. Through the years, nothing has changed. I still find fashion to be transformative and often my outward appearance influences the way I feel on the inside.

Music is my Life and Love
Throughout my life since the age of six I can remember playing the piano for the first time, the feel of the ivory keys against my fingers felt amazing. My idol at the time was Billy Joel I just loved the sound of the piano. I took lessons for many years. As I got older, I decided to join the school band by playing the flute, the following year I chose the trumpet. When I hit high school, I decided to drop band and I started to sing in the choir. I since then have had nothing but love for music. With listening to it and playing it as well as singing I could not feel a deeper love for anything. I am now forty-two and I am in the progress of going back for music production. I love to write lyrics mix beats and soon I will be learning how to put my lyrics and music together. I can feel the music flowing through my bones. When I close my eyes, I do not just hear the music I can see it too. It is almost like I am floating along the colorful music swirls in my mind. Music makes me feel like I am in a whole different world. No matter the mood I am in it can calm me, make me cry, get me revved up to want to just dance or sometimes it can make me angry. Music can make you feel what the artist is feeling almost like a tv show you can feel what the people are feeling. As for me music just calms my nerves and puts me in a better mood because I listen to all different types of styles and genres of music, I mainly choose songs that I can relate to. Music is my life always has been I love to listen to it, play it as well as sing which maybe one day I will have the courage to post a video of my singing. In fact, I tried out for Americas Got Talent last year and made it but when I got the call to go to New York City I could not make it due to two fractured knees. I was very disappointed. I tried again for this current season, but I just chose the wrong song for the director’s cut and did not know that I could not sing with my music, so it was a little nerve racking for me since I was practicing so hard with the music with me. Some songs I can sing without music but when it comes to opera, I need the music with me. I will try again next season knowing now what I know I will choose a song that I know I can sing without music backing me up. I am always the one sitting in the car singing and putting music on in the shower and singing in there too. To me music really can save the soul. It can make things hurt less, maybe more at times, but it will always calm me in the end put me back into a normal state of mind and less stressed. Going through so much with my own problems and now a relative of my boyfriend stole my keys and took my car then she crashed and totaled my car. A suspended license and no insurance of her own now leaves me without a car. All my doctor appointments had to be canceled and the car was not paid off, so my insurance paid off the car and the deductible which now leaves me with nothing. No money no life now also an eviction notices to rid myself of her. I am tired of being nice and well now I am going to just concentrate on me myself and I. My writing and my schoolwork. I am hoping once she is gone my life will get better and my relationship since she had weaseled herself into this house and our life my relationship has almost hit rock bottom. So, with the little strength I have left I shall depend on my music to get me through this and move forward and onward and be the happy woman I used to be.

Why I Hated Writing Most of My Life and What Changed My Mind
Before I start into what my passion is I feel that I need to start by talking about how I absolutely hated it for most of my life. Starting in elementary school writing is a normal part of school, writing in some form almost everyday. In early classes they just teach how to write different letters with the large lines so you can figure out how letters look and fit on the page and how words are put together. At that point in school my opinion on writing was that it was my least favorite subject, but who really would like something like that, with no stories or narratives being worked on yet there wasn’t much to like. Also around this time was when we learned cursive, or script depending on where you are from. At the time the teachers told us that it was essential to learn cursive but within a few years it had faded out of the curriculum to never be written by me again. Continuing on through the early years, learning spelling, sentence structure and how to write a proper five paragraph essay I never liked any of it along the way. I understood that technology would be able to assist with pretty much every aspect of writing that we were learning in english class so I never cared to listen. Then in Jr. high the only thing from english class I remember was essays, reading speed and comprehension. I don’t think I ever had the freedom of picking my own topic for essays until about junior year of high school. By then I was so burned out from meaningless five paragraph essays for years I could never come up with a topic to write about or so I thought.
