I will try to work for 40 more minutes and then get outside for a bit.
How is your day going? It’s funny because I write these articles and have no clue where they are going or who is reading them.
I’m writing this from a small Spanish town on the coast after moving out of the States eight years ago when I decided to stop chasing the American Dream. Most of my friends have big houses and cars and make a ton of money, but I opted for the arts and am just squeaking by each month. Selling space heaters on the side gives me a bit of extra money from the local a/c contractor and then I spend the rest of my time chasing my own dream of being a singer in a band. I will probably never be well known in the field but it makes me feel whole and complete when I sing and play in the band so that’s why I do it. I feel more content than when I was a local contractor back home selling air conditioners to people in town. It is not easy chasing the arts because you really put your heart out there for people and it can get hurt sometimes. But I’m happy I chose this instead of running my local business like I was when I was in the HVAC technology world. There is nothing wrong with that kind of life either, but something inside of me wants to show the world what I can do with singing and drumming.
