COURAGE-- It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man in the arena, whose face is marred by dust, sweat, and blood, who strives valiantly, who knows the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who have known neither victory nor defeat.---TEDDY ROOSEVELT. You can call me a late bloomer to just about everything in my life. I didn't start playing piano until I was 18 years old, was a virgin when I got married at 24, produced my first cd at age 36, and really didn't learn what it was to be a REAL MAN until after I got divorced at 40...LOL. In that time I had two wonderful children, built a multimillion dollar business, lost it all, started over, and am now finally doing what I was born to do. What I LOVE to do. So you could very well say that I do my best to live into that statement above. Right now I am the back nine of Life(you golfers will understand what I mean...lol) I am now ready to make my music known to the world. All of the my triumphs and tragedies, victories and defeats, and everything that Life has to offer I have included in every note, measure, and phrase in my music. Though I will never truly understand why things in Life happen the way they do I have learned one important lesson. That is that Life doesn't give a damn about any of us. It brings to us whatever it will without our permission or consent. It doesn't care about skin color, or how much money we have, where we live, or what we drive. It's coming at us whether we're ready for it or not, and I'm totally fine with that. That's why i live by a simple creed. LIFE IS A JOURNEY, NOT A DESTINATION. SO YOU MIGHT AS WELL ENJOY THE RIDE.
