I’ve always heard experience is the foundation for learning and creativity. It’s been almost two years now since I quit working. During the interim I’ve spent time finding myself, beginning my creative journey, and building a family. Last week I decided I needed some new song material. Cruising through Craigslist, I happened upon a job at a popcorn store in my town. It sounded like it fit the description of what I was looking for in employment. I called the morning I found the posting, had an interview in the afternoon and was hired the same day. This will be my fourth day back in the working world.
I feel like if I’m quiet at work I can gain some new song material. It’s important to be still and watch the world around me. That’s when I find the most inspiration. I can feel the creative juices starting to flow again. Yesterday, while driving to work I heard a new song on the radio. It reminded me of the journey I’ve been on and planted the seed for a new song. I plan on working on that song this weekend. I also have another song I started that I need to finish. It’s more complicated in nature than my other material. I have to record multiple parts and layer them all together. Challenges excite me so I say “Bring it on!”
I apologize for my absence. Please check out my Reverbnation page. It’s been updated with new recordings of some of my earlier songs. I need your help rising in rank please become a fan if you aren’t already and pass the word along to your friends. Thank you for your support!
