Thanks for taking a minute to stop by my page and for finding it interesting enough to read this far. Hope you find yourself coming back again! If you do find me interesting enough, please send me a friend's request with a short message introducing yourself and what made you just have to be my friend. Blind friends requests will be deleted, no questions asked. Myspace is about friendships and that's what I'm interested in - not sex, not free Louis Vuitton purses or iPhones, and no, I could care less about seeing your webcam. I'm not looking for Mr. Right, Mr. Right Now or even Mr.Hmmm Maybe, however if the chemistry was there, I'm not afraid to see where it goes but it definitely isn't my objective on here. Thanks for checking out my little corner of the world wide web!

YOU'RE NOTHING WITHOUT YOUR FRIENDS...FRIENDSHIP IS THE GREATEST GIFT ANYONE CAN EVER GIVE YOU AND THE GREATEST GIFT TO GIVE IN RETURN.
I CAN NEVER EVEN BEGIN TO MAKE ANYONE UNDERSTAND HOW MUCH TRUE, HONEST AND SINCERE FRIENDS MEAN TO ME. I MEAN FRIENDS WHO ARE THERE DAY IN DAY OUT, THROUGH GOOD AND BAD, THROUGH THICK AND THIN, NOT JUST WHEN THEY NEED YOU OR WHEN NOTHING BETTER IS GOING ON. YOU MAKE LIFE SO MUCH FUN AND CAN ALWAYS BRING A SMILE TO MY FACE EVEN WHEN THE LAST THING I WANT TO DO IS SMILE. YOU CAN NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE VALUE THAT FRIENDS BRING TO YOUR LIFE. I LOVE EVERY ONE OF THESE PEOPLE AND AM SO APPRECIATIVE FOR WHO THEY ARE AND FOR HOW SPECIAL THEY ARE TO ME. I LOVE ALL OF YA!
I can't give solutions to all of life's problems, doubts,
or fears.
I will listen to you, and together we will search for answers.
I can't change your past with all it's heartache and pain,
nor the future with its untold stories.
I can only be there now when you need me to care.
I can't keep your feet from stumbling.
I can only offer my hand that you may grasp it and not fall.
Your joys, triumphs, successes, and happiness are not mine;
Yet I can share in your laughter.
Your decisions in life are not mine to make, nor to judge;
I can only support you, encourage you,and help you when you ask.
I can't prevent you from falling away from friendship,
from your values, from me.
I can only pray for you, talk to you and wait for you.
I can't give you boundaries which I have determined for you.
I can only give you room to change, room to grow, room to be yourself.
I can't keep your heart from breaking and hurting.
I will cry with you and help you pick up the pieces and put them back in place.

Music defines who I am, my past, my present. It is the Soundtrack of my Life.
Although I've always been and will always be a fan of 80's metal and classic rock, I've really grown to love acoustic and country music over the past year. I've come to appreciate the hard work and sweat that goes into writing a really good song and have learned to really listen to the message the songwriter is trying to convey. I really don't suffer too much from MGD ("musical genre discrimination")as you can tell by my ever changing playlist, which rotates based on moods, who's pissed me off or who's made me smile. That's what music is all about and what I'm about.
I'm a dedicated fan of the undiscovered musical artist/songwriter. I love to find new talent and help get it out there to the rest of the music world. I believe in those I promote and know that what they do is more than a hobby, it's a way of life and their way of making a living. They have my support 150% and I hope they'll soon have yours. People ask me all the time what I get out of promoting all of these artists and I tell them this - "the satisfaction of knowing I might have made a difference with their music by making it available to a larger audience and knowing that I've made lifetime friends from it" - that's enough for me.
Music not only consists of the beat and the melodies, but lyrics. Lyrics are the very soul of a song. They can bring out emotions you didn't realize were hiding inside of you. They can make you happy, they can make you sad, they can make you laugh and they can make you cry. Sometimes you just need to sit and get beyond the melody and just listen to what the song is saying. Don't look for the typical artist on my playlist, you won't find them there. No Carrie Underwoods, no Bon Jovi's, no Jimmy Buffett's...only those artists that don't have a large fanbase and are trying to make it bigger. Most will be artists you've probably never heard of, which is why they're on my playlist, so you will now know who they are. They can all be found on my friends list. It's not that I don't support or listen to the mainstream artist because anyone who know me knows that I love pretty much all music, but the artists on my list are actually real friends of mine so they hold a special place in my heart and I thought it's about time they got some recognition.
