the only things that matter.

i wake up today. like any other day. strategizing and organizing my events for the next week or so. trips for shows out of town. studio sessions that i need to stay on top of. a bunch of stuff that had me ready to pull my hair out.

then i turn on the news and find out about the tragedy that occured early this morning in virginia. 32 victims. 32 families. not to mention the countless that were injured, physically and emotionally.

all of a sudden, my troubles seemed so petty.

the world can be such a cruel and unpredictable place at times. i think about the 32 individuals who passed away and when they woke up this morning, did they realize it would be their final moments of life..

i actually had the wonderful opportunity of performing at virginia tech back in april of '03. who would think that 4 years later, this would have took place on the same campus?

i guess that's the reality of life. you never know what may happen.

i'm not naive in any sense. i realize that we live in a society where there are perils and danger lurking around every corner. there's war overseas. there's war in our very own backyards.

tragic events happen daily. some we're aware of..and alot that we don't ever hear about...

call me a dreamer. an optimist. that one day, things just might be slightly better.

until then, all we can do as mankind is maintain a positive spirit and appreciation for one another.

realize, that the things you find to be trivial may just be totally insignificant.

family. friends. love. good health. these are the only things that matter.
