There are two artists that have inspired me the most... Colbie Caillat and Jason Reeves. I have had the honor of meeting Jason twice, and tell him how much he has meant to me musically. He told me to be magical with my music, and that is something I plan to do. This next month, I get the opportunity to also meet Colbie after her performance I am going to see, so I am blessed in many ways in that area of my life. The area that runs the deepest. The words those two write are brilliant, and I hope one day to be able to write like them myself. Even though they can't see it here, thank you Jason & Colbie, for being the inspiration in my life.
"I'm not sure what is a dream and what is real. Or if real is a real word and if words even exist outside of our imagination..I still can't say for certain if falling asleep is opening your eyes in the morning or closing them at night. And im lonely. But not sadly. Everybody is alone. I want love like love wants love..oxygen and drifting clouds. And im not scared to be alive. These days more people are. Money is an illusion. The world has been gaining some sort of momentum over "time" and every day it's spinning faster. We are growing up too quick. Someday I'll start to. I write music because it feels like breathing. I sing because it is connection. I wish everybody would sing with me and without even gathering together sing so honestly that the songs could be carried on wind and heard at every point in the universe, even in translation. I wish there were no more bombs or bullets. And I wish we'd stop using politicians for negotiations. People are far too beautiful at heart to be introduced so cruelly into the blinding brilliant world. Children. If there were to be a new beginning. Would it all come out the same way again?" - Jason Reeves
